Comments (150)Michelle, The cacuchas have just sprouted, so they're tiny, but will do well! They are wonderfully flavored mild chiles, very productive. I did find out that if you want to keep them growing year after year you must plant fresh seeds. They don't stay viable for long. Maybe I would grow a Russian sage if you have a little one. Pamela, one Siam Ruby for you. I see you were on the list, but didn't know you had already paid Lisa for it, and hadn't heard from you. See you Sunday....See MoreCroton Party/Barbecue/Plant Auction

Comments (33)Hi This is a very interesting topic as i mostly enjoy reading that other people are struggling also . Here's my two cents. Not sure which i learned specificly from this forum or the internet. or personal experience.lol There are only two types of plants . Those that try to eat the house or those that die on the way home. There's definitely more than one method to grow any plant. If your orchids are growing well you're obviously growing the wrong kind. No matter how difficult the plant there is someone somewhere growing it in a closet . Latin names are not Latin!! They're only latinized!!! I must learn latinization because there is no other way. Bummer!!! There is a direct correlation between how much a plant costs and how quickly I can kill it . The magic amount seems to be about 25 dollars. Pay more than that it will wilt on the way home. The best way to kill weeds is to transplant them they'll die immediately. This is the galling one .Neighbor asks for advice on how to grow a specific orchid . You give long winded info which is completely ignored. Hers bloom better than mine lol You try her method and yours croak I still have a goal to be like the garden center pix. Laying in a lawn chair sipping tropical drinks while surrounded with an immaculate landscape.Without any labor at all. Where can i learn that??? gary...See More- 5 years ago
