Hi Phillip, Yes it is the one in the round tub. Ok.. was concerned when I read to check to see, if stuck with a pin, will have little ooze areas, none anywhere. Most of my other plants touched them with a pin, instant sap. Ok..will watch for tip growth and say a plumie prayer, ha It just looks odd. Trunk.. thats what they call the stalk. I get the terms confused, grew roses for so many years, think those words. Ok.. Have not watered as you advised..so will keep a watch.. I hope the larger pot will be easy enough to control in watering, largest one I have had. Can check the top with a water meter, but down below that is the heavy roots, could over water.. Will have to be careful. MY Gosh plumeria are slow, could go on a 5 cruises and come back and they still look the same. ha I have never went through dormacy before with the plumies, or the waiting for all to leaf, most are still in dormacy. Wish they would hurry up!! was warm here, so now cooler. Does that effect the plants to continue to wake up? I don't know how long it takes them to come out of dormacy? thanks for your advise. Karen B

100% in little Sparta, TN, a pretty two hour drive from Huntsville, AL. We kept to the back roads the whole time, saw very little eclipse traffic.

It was my second total eclipse and I felt so rewarded to know that my 47 year old memory was vividly accurate! It was a fabulous, memorable experience.
