Hey guys, I haven't been on any plant forum for a few years, I moved from Ontario to PEI and it was such a hard move on my plants, I got really discouraged and pretty well stopped growing. Before leaving, I gave away all the plants that I figured I could replace easily, and everything that was too big to move smoothly. So, things like my large cacti, my 20 year old Ficus elastica, my spider plants and aloes etc..After re-homing all those, I was left with about 100 plants to bring. Out of those 100 maybe 50 survived the trip. As if that wasn't bad enough, I soon realized that no stores on the island sell plants. Even the Walmart and Lows don't have plant sections. So still, nearly 2 years after arriving here, I haven't been able to replace any of the plants I left behind. Not even the spider plant! Sooo discouraging. Starting this year I will be rebuilding though. Threw mail order, and hopefully trades. Anyways, to tide myself over until spring, I ordered and started a whole bunch of MGs. Its so nice to see flowers in the house again! Here are the first 2 to bloom Plum grey smoke, and Kniola's Black
