A few updated pictures...
Comments (7)Are you growing them in a large fishtank? Cause I see a glass wall. There are nice plants. Do you also grow them outside? Your Adelae might have more small babies on the side of the pot where the soil comes in contact with the pot. If you take the plant out of the pot, you might see some there. I have one in a plastic transparent container and some of the babies are growing at the bottom and some on the side deep in the soil where the soil meets the walls of the container....See MoreA Few Updated Pictures
Comments (7)Hello Friends, Thank you are for your knid and encouraging words. Stephen - The Boysenberries are going crazy and growing so fast, especially now in this heat. Unfortunately, the Rasberries did not make it. I am not sure why, I did the same exact thing I did with the Boysenberries. Thanks Again! Ethan - Thanks Again for the compliements! Harry - Thanks and I got this particular Abiu from Plantogram. I have another Abiu that I have put on here several times in the past that I got from Hawaii. Tropical Grower and Gary, and Joe - Thanks Again for the compliements! More Pics to Come in the Near Furture. Thanks, Jacob...See MoreA few photos taken at dawn
Comments (4)Thanks guys, I have no idea what variety the EE's are, they are all "gifts" from neighbors who no longer wanted them. Some are from a bed that my mother planted before I was born...I have permanent permission to pull all that I see from the yard next door because they are almost impossible to get rid of. I am in Houston, so tons of humidity, they just love it here. Many of them bloomed earlier this year, putting out a large white solid bloom about the size of a corn cob...I have babies growing from offshoots, up to 5' tall giants. They multiply every year, so I have them coming out my ears, no pun intended. I just love them....See MoreSome pictures, Sept update.
Comments (26)Hi everyone Will try to get some updated pictures posted tomorrow evening. Esp of the inside. Hopefully the natives were not too restless this weekend! I have been on all weekend leaving the lunatics in charge at the asylum! LOL red love- believe it or not, we already have a bell! It's still on it's post over near the new house but it works great. Have to decide where to put it and repaint. Grey ridge - as fair as entertaining..... this is a pretty big house. We have had several large parties so far and it has flowed pretty well. A couple of things that really help that flow - we removed the closets on either side of the front door and opened that area up. We moved the 1/2 bath over to where the music alcove is and made it a full bath. We then enlarged the doorways to both the living room and the country kitchen and made them symmetrical. The foyer is a fabulous place to place an hors' d'oerve (sp?) table etc. The dining room is large enough for our table extended which is probably 10-12 if you are doing a formal dinner. The foyer would also be a great place for the "kids" table for a really large family gathering. When we were building everyone assumed we would put a very large farm table in the kitchen. We actually had planned ( and did) to use that area for our family living space therefore leaving the living room for a more formal area. That will be evident in the pics. The other change from the plans - my MIL is living with us- we didn't finish the library as such for the present, it's her room - thus the full bath. We had a large KY Derby party soon after we moved in. It was informal with the food buffet style on the DR table. We used the "tool bench" area ( which we have done in laminate countertops with cabinets) of the clutter room as a bar- it was perfect- especially since we used the second fridge in the clutter room for all the chilled beverages. I don't know what climate you live in - but the porches are also a great entertaining feature. Because of the large number of doors, people can flow easily from the porches and through the house. As far as moving the stairs - I am sure you could move them "forward" and enlarge your dining room but they are dramatic and designed to be in the center of the house. I will try to get some good pics but they are a "bell tower" staircase - they are open from the top to the basement. You can stand in second floor hallway and see to the basement. They are finished all the way to the basement. I agree- lots to decide and lots of fun!! PD...See Moresas95
