If I take the trellis my one passionflower is already on and use decorative buckets and filled them with quick create, will that be ok to keep it upright?
and second if i do this can I grow my other passionflower up the other side of it so they intermingle thier different colored blooms?

Here's my passionflower now but the last bloom just closed, i missed the good pic

Note to self: Passiflora x belotii

Gosh, Trina -- Where is your Dave? Does he know you are over here? Are all your other plants ID'ed except these? Are those new pots for your citrus trees? They seem big for the small trees. Hey, but I am sure someone will come to your rescue!!!

Indianapolis, IN(Zone 5b)

You really have some great plants!!

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

Keaau, HI

Hi Trina,

The clumping palm is Chamaedorea cataractarum, Cataract Palm.
The one after that looks like Chamaedorea elegans, Parlor Palm.

The "what's this thing" plant looks like Dracaena angustifolia.

Palms # 1 & 3 are too young for a proper ID.

#2 looks like a Hoya.

The variegated Schefflera needs a larger pot and fertilizer.

The Banana should be in a well lighted location for the winter.

The Poinsettia needs to be in the dark when the Sun goes down. Too much light at night will keep it from flowering.

The unidentified EE is Colocasia esculenta, Taro. Looks like an Asian type.

The Black Magic EE needs to be cut off right where you were holding it with your fingers, and the little bulblet sunk into soil, with the new leaves sticking up.

Aloha, Dave

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

thank you Dave...I'm sorry I had popsicle sticks with thier names on them in the pots but puppy face decided they make good chew toys too

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

so Dave are you ready to beat me up yet? I am sorry! I'd post a question in one of the appropriate forums but then I'd forget what I posted ad I just can't keep up with that many threads

Canton,IL &Dent Coun, MO(Zone 5b)

okay and what's this one? it had pepper something in the name....the bottom of the leaves are purple

And don't freak out about the browning leaves...its one of a handful that got a little misted with herbicide

NTS: Peperomia
