You better now make me your hero as I never grow the same thing for more than a couple of years......get bored and try something new. Propagating is my passion and right now I am hooked on streptocarpus, hoyas, aeschynanthus, orchids, morning glories and a few tropical plants like bromeliads. I tried morning glories last summer and got fired up to really grow them this year. It is now time to plant the seeds indoors.

Keep your fingers crossed for me on these morning glory attempts. I bought a book on orchids and their propagation while on the trip so that will also be one of my spring attempts.

I can't really afford to order hoyas except when I find really good buys. I found this variegated hoya kerri for 8 bucks with 3 well rooted plants in the basket on my trip.
