Lin, did you get the D-mail I sent you regarding Apollo?
I took a bunch of houseplant cutting this past weekend and tried to identify as many as I could.
My new espicia babies names are:

Episcia Kee Wee
Episcia KD's Glittermagic
Episcia Grey Lady
Episcia Teddy Bear
Episcia Chocolate Velour

I keep looking around and see that they hoyas really do take up alot of much needed space. I am enjoying this new gessie addiction MUCH more and think that if they do as well for me as I' hoping that I will have to part with the hoyas. Our growing season and the direct sun/humidity they like only lasts for a very short time so I don't think they have a long enough season to bloom for me. I think I would rather use the space they take up to keep MORE gessies *lol*. Time will tell though how good I end up doing with these babies.

I like the fact that streps bloom more often. I like that they propagate so easily. I like the fact that they like cooler temperatures. They just seem to be the type of plant I needed to discover. Thank you all for encouraging me :)

Look at these babies. They traveled all the way from Idaho to Maine and I talk to them every day. So far they are neon green *lol* I think that means they like me *lol*

Lin, you know me.....LOVE trading :) I may even have some hoyas for you too *lol*
