Well are you getting spring time there yet.... we've finally started to warm up some here... Donovan has discovered the way to prevent overwatering... one that has allways kept everything a bit dry here...
GET MORE PLANTS...
Lovely passion flowers... and the orchid shots are splended as well... Orchids are one item I've not indulged myself with... perhaps the only one ...
I've maybe 4 passion vines going now.. the one I overwintered.. blooming alot of the time... went compleatly dormant .. then now has started up again... the others are budding and one is flowering... OH..and the red one I have growing in a planter on the sidewalk .. climbing up a fishing line trellis to an overhang is allways in bloom.. although small in comaprison..still a work of art in it's color and form..
Oh and a word of plantcare for this time of year..to go along with my overwatering idea...
If you go out and everything seems to be filling in nicely... look again...
it's really time to WEED...
