When I was gifted the Monarch Cats back in October, they came with these two MW cuttings. After I transferred the cats to living plants, I kind of got busy and forgot about the cup with the cuttings in it. So they've been sitting out on the front patio table for a while now. I noticed that they had attracted those weird colored aphids that I only see on MW plants. I'm planning on spraying with water to remove them. 3. When I pulled the cuttings out of the cup, I discovered roots. Now I have another reason to thank my friend. These plants will have the aphids removed and then I will transplant them directly into my new beds out at the BEES. So THANKS ANNIE! :-D 4. My front walk, Spirit, and the flowerbed that is temporarily hosting potted plants that will be going out to be planted in the BEES beds. 5. A very sad sight met my eyes out at the BEES today. I found that the native Hibiscus was all chewed down. So I potted them back up, and changed them out with a different kind of Hibiscus. I think given time in the Greenhouse, that they will recover. I can't feel too bad because the Blue Hibiscus were found down at Lowe's on sale for $1.00 each. I do like them though. :-( More soon. WIB~ SW |
