A couple of years ago Holly gifted me with a Peace Plant which she said had mealy bugs. I don't recall doing much with it other than keeping it a safe distance from my other plants that particular summer when they all spent the summer outdoors. I am proud to say (knock on wood) that I haven't experienced any mealy bugs problems with it and for the first time since owning several Peace Plants, I now have one in bloom.....two blooms on the one that Holly gave me. It sure seems happy and I just had to snap a couple shots of it for you all this morning.

I also wanted to share a couple of Coleus who has been enjoying the brighter sun recently and have decided to give me a very pretty show. Donnerville, one photo was snapped of the larger of the two Lipstick plants you gave me. The smaller one actually bloomed last week, but the blooms are dead this morning. Didn't bother to show that here. Am proud of how well both Lipsticks did this winter for me though because last winter I killed the one you gave me.

Also another two Mulberry Jazz African Violets again from Donnerville. Last picture is of my front bay window this morning.
