Linda Kay, as a Hotties, I want you all to know, I have so much stuff, trades are not necessary.. I'll always send my hottie friends stuff for postage. You really need some plumies.. The one I got at K-mart was broom handle size, about a foot or less tall.. that was last Spring, I think... I potted it up before fall and It wintered over with the brugs, by Feb had lost all it's leaves..This spring it went into an even bigger pot, grew a new limb (inflo?) and bloomed, right here smack in the middle of the tropics.. lol It is 4ft tall, now. You'll be busy with brugs, it won't seem long at all for blooms. Some sweet lil DGer sent me some babies and they grow faster than you would think.. I'll try my hand at seed starting this winter when the snow is blowing and winds are howling.

Donna and Clemen, (precious hotties) I'm d-mailing the much admired NY rooftop gardener and begging for my Ludger fix. (Donna, thanks for the clue ;)Sure hope you girls get to go! X X for you both! If not, I'm sure he would mail for postage.. wonder if he's one of our lurkers??? Gordon? Clemen thanks for the info but IS it called Dragon Fruit? I'm aware I will retard blooms by repotting, but they are in plain dirt, I want to put them in a dirt/MG mix for better air circulation and so the roots don't have to work so hard.. I think I will just replace the dirt and not pot into something bigger. They aren't bloom producers anyway, maybe 2 or 3 IF I'm lucky..
more coleus, check out the unique lacy middle one..
