Don't forget Diane i told you I am taking all the leaves on my chiritas off, so I definitely will send you some in the next couple of weeks. They grow so quickly from a leaf if you put each bottom stem half in your regular mix and use a dome for a couple of weeks.

Trailers in competition should only start with one plant and then you are right.........they start suckering and put on new growth that cascades over.

But for fun and to look at , I always put 3 plants from a leaf in one pot......let me show you a few pictures......remember too that some are miniatures and some are standard trailers.

Go to a vendor's site and see pictures of trailers. They are easy when you can put 3 plants together rather than one.

This one just finished blooming so she doesn't look good but she has about 5 plants in her pot. She is TRail Along
