Morning Glories 2017 #02

Don;t know what was wrong Debra. I could see my pic file but Dg wouldn;t let me
choose a pic to send. Seems to be fine now. Maybe they were working on it,.
Love your bubbler system and mg's. The powdery blue is one of my favorites

Take that back , its not fine with my pics. The whole thing froze up and I had to start all over . The end result, again,. it would not go to my pic files. I hope I don;t have a virus in my pics.

I went on Edge browser typed my msg and attached a pic, hit send and it went. Now its nowhere to be found. My gd was on computer yesterday trying to do something with photoshop for her pics, she must have hit something
Testing to see if this posts

set your computer back to where it was with system restore, Jackie. I do it all the time. She prolly changed the photo extension types without knowing it. You can fix this. system restore back to a few days ago when you last could find your files.
It took from march 8th to now for these.. I am fighting mealey bugs again, on my growing mgs and plants, so I tried the Listerine spray. we will see. I am gonna drench the pots and surrounding soils with a light soap this weekend.

Debra, I may have to restore my computer but I wish I could find out what happened
without doing that.

The Listerine is effective on white flies but I don;t know if it will work
on mealy bugs. Guess we're going to find out.

Oops, edited to say white flies not spider mites, too many sr moments
here lately.

Hope you restored your pictures Jackie. Or found out what went wrong.

When I started seeing mealy bugs and some I started taking my plants outside. Mealy bugs were easily to smash, did spray with insecticide soap too. I have Listerine just haven't got around to getting a spray bottle for it. Really cold here too,
cloudy and windy with the sun trying to break through. A good day for napping!
Here's a few mgs from Azuremore I hope to grow this year.

Debra, your babies look great.

Helena, those are beautiful blooms.

Oops, meant to say white flies not spider mites.
Beautiful blooms from Azuremore, hope your sds make those same gorgeous blooms
Helena,

I love those blooms Helena. I am about to go down and see if it did anything. I also have this little black bug that comes in groves on the new growth of hibiscus. I do squish when I can. LOL I need to get the babies transplanted, hope to have that done ON SUnday.
From last year August

Gorgeous blooms from last August Debra.

My cordon experiment from last year.

scarlet o' hara x orihime from last year. And got a jar full of seeds from the same cross I grew at my mama's house.

I like to draw on my spare time too.

Pretty cross Tony.
Very impressive drawing.

Thanks ladies. My new batch of seedlings turned out to have weak root systems so not sure if they are going to make it. Will try more seeds of those later. But 3 of your Purple Plum velvet did great Jackie.
Pretty blooms Debra.
Always nice to see your pics Tony.

Helena, did you try sds from the true PPV? Those seeds I had sent to you
year b4 last in the Fall of 2015. I want to try one again this yr too. I lost the seedling of PPV last yr for some reason.

Pics from last post and this post from Aug 2013

Recent pics
Blue Star from Karen (blue) even though its not true from seed
Calliandra marginata from Logees. 1 bloom
My Erythrina from sd last yr. Had to cut it back late winter due to spider mites, now my'lvs are coming back small. They were huge last yr.
I knew what vine this was off of a day or 2 ago, now I'm not sure. I think it'was Blue Lavender Beauty

Beautiful bloom everyone.

I have spent most of the day at the ER with hubby, when I woke this morning he told me his right hand and face was numb, so we both got dressed, and went to the ER. after waiting all day, we were told he did have 2 small stokes, one on each side of the brain. Blood thinners will take care of them.
Now the sad part is, hubby came home at 10 yesterday, and told me it was just a slow day at work, and he was tired. He said nothing about his fingers tingling, till I got up this morning.
So when he told the Dr. he had symptoms since yesterday, he got a good chewing out! He will spend the night in the hospital for observation, and I bring him home tomorrow, with new blood pressure meds, and he will be on blood thinners for awhile.

Linda, so sorry to hear this but he is lucky, He survived the strokes so thats wonderful news. I can;t believe the er left him setting there all day and after you told them he 's most likekly had a stroke. Lord I;m glad I don;t have to use that hospital. We
have a blood pressure cuff here and I take mine 2 or 3 times a day as does DH.
So glad he gets to come home tomorrow, he can rest better at home.

So sorry to hear about your hubby Linda. Hope everything goes good with the meds and he gets to rest and improve.

Beautiful blooms Jackie. Yes the seeds are from the true PPV. I have 3 seeds started just to make sure I can have fresh seeds. I can't wait till I start betting blooms!
My mgs and a few other plants survived being outside in this cold weather even if it might slow them down a bit.

Hope you get some pretty PPV blooms Helena. That dark purple is
really gorgeous.
The below freezing nights destroyed my Wisteria blooms
.Hope your DH gets better everyday Linda.

Wow, Linda. How scarey! I'll send positive thoughts and Prayers your way. I don't know what I'd do if that happened to Joe. I hope he gets his meds figured out and has a healthy return.
Tony, your art is amazing. you have talent. SO are your blooms.
Helena, I love that you grew the Erythrina from seed. Good job!. I love all the blooms from you both, Jackie, I wish I had a PPV of yours to send back, I'll look and see. Had the day off, cleared leaves off the south side and trimmed the loniceras. John Clayton has really taken off, so has Blanche sandman. I'll try to make plats from th parts Joe chopped off. The virginia blue bells are blooming. it is really dry and windy here.

Debra, scroll up, we have a new room.
