Danville, VA(Zone 7a)

I can't agree any more then what Gail said... We are a great group of very caring and sharing people... Speaking of sharing...LOLOL Does anyone here have one of those very tiny sinns that you put in a glass? I would be happy to pay for one or if not could someone tell me what there really are called so I can go on ebay to get one...
Hey Rain, If you don't want those plumerias anymore you can also ship them back home to me... :-)

Hi Susan , I saw a listing for a tiny one called Bright Eyes it darling and I have wanted one for a while but when I see them they either go too high in bids ( don't want to pay too much since it is new to me ) or they don't have anything else I want and then it ends up being so much with shipping for just one tiny dear plant , but I think you would like Bright Eyes if you want a tiny one , I would offer you one if I had any ............but sadly I don't :( Hope you find one and if I see one soon I will let you know :)

Hugs ,

Connie,
Thanks for the offer if you had one... I did kill the one I had....LOLOLOL I have had steps now for a couple years and I still kill my fair share.... There is a person on the forum who thinks she is the only one who kills them.. Well Here is a picture of some that are trying very hard to die... I may have to toss them to make them happier...LOL
Thanks once again,
Hugs,
Susan

Look at all the pretty steps! The pictures of the dieing steps looks all to familiar to me.LOL I see now how you grow the leaves in water.Thanks for the picture.Oh my goodness,you tree is so pretty!!!

I'm no AV expert but the first one seems to be a trailing violet?? You can pinch the center leaves out and that will make suckers form and fill the plant in?? Or take a crown off and re root and chuck the rest of the plant...only after you send me a leaf ^_^....LOL.Just kidding.Hope someone else that knows AV comes along and helps you with it.

I have small sinningia Rio das Pedras-dark form, if you ladies would like one.I need to ween them out of the baggie first but could send them next week.

This plumeria is called kolika and when I bought her I paid 130.00 plus shipping... Gotta love them...LOLOL I am so glad I now have an addiction that is smaller and is not so hard to keep them going...LOL

I have a sinningia for your wine glass,I'll mail it saturday or monday.I'll let you know which day. It was nice talking to you too ^_^

130.00 bucks for a tree!!!!! Holy smokes woman.Stick with streps there cheaper LOL.I can't imagine bringing those trees in for the winter.. I could never do it,I have a hard time with a gallon of milk..LOL.

Williston, ND

if you take off some crowns ,on you trailer and some of the larger leaves,it should help

Susan, yes, both pictures Gail and I posted were of Franken Copper Knob. I got the one I have from the RR a few months ago, and she posted a pic of hers for comparison. As far as your trailer goes, you could use that one in the Japanese growing method, if you wanted . . . just skip the first few steps - trip a few leaves, then pin the crowns down as they develop . . .

Taft, TX(Zone 9a)

Awesome size plumerias, Sue!!!! And I do see a few of your beatiful streps and some that really look that could use a good fungicide 3 in 1 for just powdery mildew......won't hurt a thing............and it comes ready to use or you can mix it from a concentrate but have to use what you mix....and the ready to go kind you just spray and don't have to worry about losing the strenth.......

Danville, VA(Zone 7a)

Gail,
Which ones have mildew? I did not see it but 4 eyes are better then two...LOL Off to work ladies and gents see you later..
Hugs,
Susan

Danville, VA(Zone 7a)
