It's miracle fruit season again
Comments (16)Ok time for my own question. I'm at the office all day and I'm afriad to leave my bush outside during the week incase of one of our unexpected Central Florida downpours. I've read so many warnings against over watering, I just don't want to take the risk. So during the week my MF is confined to an upstairs window with a plastic bag over it to combat against indoor airconditioning. Every day when I get home I take the bag off for afew min to change the air. By the 3rd day my peat has mold on it! How do you guys fight this problem, or are you all able to keep your plants outside? I put mine on the front porch yesterday because it's covered and has shrubs partly shading it, but when I got home the afternoon sun had taken quite a toll! -piri...See MoreLet's try this again...First Blooms of the Season
Comments (11)Thanks everyone! I had to open a Photobucket account. For some reason Snapfish wasn't working for me anymore. Yes, I do love my reds!! Even though you are so right Seil. Nearly impossible to get the shades of red to show up correctly. But for as much as I love my reds, I think Denali is taking the cake for me too right now. I'll take a few more pics this evening for you guys now that Denali is opening up. It's breathtaking! Thanks so much for all the encouraging words. And don't worry, I've got about 60 newbies this year. There will be PLENTY of pictures!!...See MoreLate season planting - again
Comments (10)My yard was planted (by a landscaper) in Sept of 98. Everthing looked ridiculously high above ground, but all the trees and shrubs survived and thrived with 2 exceptions. Those two were Amur maple and paper birch. I've since read that both those should be only spring planted. All the trees and shrubs were B&B or potted, all were put on lot line berms of trucked in soil, planted very high and had a ton of mulch put on. No soil amendments, no fertilizer, no cutting back. The amur and birch are fine now, but were very slow compared to the rest. As far as moving stuff this time of year, why not? If you're careful and make the holes very wide and shallow, you should do well. Its not like they will be stressed to put out new growth like in Spring. Dont worry if they go shockey and lose leaves. And dont fertilize! I watered all this plant life until a Dec hard freeze. I am going to try planting perennials for the first time in the fall. I'm told it can be successfully done. Lets keep each other informed, and check back next Spring. Pondy...See MoreAmaryllis that I bought last season is ready to bloom again :)
Comments (24)We are teasing about the color! It's such a deep red....Bragu was teasing that it had no color and since he was being silly, I teased him back because there is no such thing as a blue Hippeastrum!! It is amazing to watch them grow so quickly. A couple of years ago there was a post of 84 photos from a first timer as we were all on "scape watch" with her! SORRY....! :-)...See MoreMarilyn Sue McClintock
