Well, JB---

1--Here is an earlier shot of the Easter cactus. It WAS bigger and lusher at one time....
This is from 2006. So--it is older than that...20 yrs. maybe?
Can you believe how long I have had this one?

Same for most of my plants?
My Angel Wing begonia , my big pot of Amaryllis, my Swedish ivy HB.,
my fuchsia CC., etc...ALL are from 2005 or earlier, especially the AW Begonia.
Geez! It must be about 25 years old or more....
Endless propagating is the "secret"....

SO--Let me take you down MY "Memory lane" with some plants.

One group of plants i DO know , exactly, how old they are. All my Epis.
2--Got 3 leaf-cuttings of them all in August 24,2005 from "Kachinagirl" in CA.
3--Purple datura--not so purple back in Aug. 2005 , It has evolves much more purple.
4--Dr, Seusds--Aug. 2005--obviously NOT new that year! Ioo big already. Possibly from 2003.
5--Pregnant onion---2005-9-4. Also--already very well on the way...Add a couple years again.
