she's about ready to start blooming. i have her in front of a south-facing sliding glass door. full sun just about all day. bright light (pictured) almost all night. i have been fertilizing and watering. no sign of mites, yet. going to bring it outside and spray with horticultural oil again.
She is a beauty!!!
I CANT WAIT TO SEE HER SHOWING HER GLORY!!!
Great job!!!
Laura

ryan michelle is now blooming! i can smell the sweety, fruity fragrance from a couple of feet away.
this is a seedling of aztec gold blooming for the first time. not much fragrance though.
TucsonPlumeriaz,
The Ryan Mitchell is quite a beauty!!
I bet she smells wonderful!!
I also love Aztec Gold.. What a classic...
My Penang Peach is looking like it will open soon. I have it under T-5 lights and its slowly trying to open. I have a large inflo, so hopefully it will have some good color. It's to bad that is didnt bloom this summer.
Thanks for the pictures!!
They look wonderful!!!
Laura
hey there laura! thanks for the compliment. it helped that i had direct sunlight in the house. it might have take longer with just the compact fluorescent light. love that aztec gold! i have to cuttings in a home depot bucket right now with fan and humidity. trying to get them to push out roots.
please post pics of your penang peach. i found that one to be fun last summer and a good bloomer!
Your Aztec gold looks alot of white there mines more yellow with the strong peach scent sure tags were not misplaced pretty flower Aztec is know for its lanky growth mines getting ready for a strong hair cut
hi dana. check again. i said that "this is a seedling of aztec gold blooming for the first time." :)
lol ok i knew something was wrong there very nice to have a seedling flower its pretty later when the heats on you should have a nice scent too :) sorry
no worries on this end... :)
Mine are all packed away once a week I spray them to keep the humidity up been really warm here too warm there confused we go a week or so in the 70's then we go down to the mid 30's and 40's very mild winter. Most are in pots these are too big I dig them and store them bare root
no! jack, don't light that pile! :)

Can't you just see the wings starting lol
oh my! that wind beneath my wings song comes to mind. haha! fly...fly... :)
i can see that some of them do not like the cold.
are most of those seedlings?
i decreasing the size of my collection which pales in comparison. i am going for the plain but tried and true.
my hat off to you for such a collection.
lol some are seedlings some are named I have already got rid of a bunch this is not all of them lol But year after year this gets old real quick last year when I was gone for Christmas we had really cold weather I was not here to run the heat and had some freeze damadge loose one tip get 3 more back lol ruins the looks of the plant. It was fun I am still a seed freak just not those seeds!
yeah, at this point i am concentrating on growing some in pots as small trees. i don't want tons of plumeria anymore.
