texasbigleaves: Thanks for the new thread and that wonderful photo of the beautiful variegated Alocasia!

Kay: Love those Gladolus ... really beautiful color! I have the yellow lantana and tecoma stans too!

Rita: Your cactus pictured here: http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/p.php?pid=8534300 might be the same as mine but it looks a bit different from the Ric Rac I have. There are other cacti with the common name of "Ric Rac" and "Fishbone" but I'm not sure of the names. One I know of is Epiphyllum anguliger which I believe is also a night bloomer and has a fragrant white bloom. Some of the photo's in PF don't look right but this one shows the foliage well: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/74225/

Here are links to a couple of photo's for E. anguliger:

Is that "Cherries Jubilee" in your first photo? It is really beautiful!


Debra: That is a beautiful puppy bouquet. I've never seen one like it, very fitting for the loss of a pet. I must have missed where you posted about the passing of your beloved "Duke". I am so sorry for your loss ... I know it is very hard to lose any member of the family, even the four legged ones.

♥ RIP little Duke ♥
