Hay there,
I got a super sweet surprise today. I received several cuttings from a cacti!! Thank you sweet sister!! It is believed to be a hot, fuchsia pink but she isn't sure because her blooms are just beginning to set. This is such a neat surprise. I placed them in soil immediately and am keeping my fingers crossed.
Another friend has several rooting that are suppose to be a pale pink. I am so excited to get them and watch them grow. Thank you, my dear sweet friends. I shall name them Marian and Rita, lol !!
In my research of Christmas Cacti I found an article that told of a plant in a bank, of all places, that is known to be over 100 years old. I would love to see a photo of that one!
I am working towards an assortment/variations of all colors and species. They are just fascinating to me. My grandmothers both had plants and I remember them hanging so low and just breaking off when the broom would sweep beneath them.
My other passion is African Violets. I have a group of miniature violets that I hope will bless me with blooms this year. I have one that is a trailing variety with teeny tiny leaves.
My thumbs aren't completely green so this is a challenge for me. Does anyone else raise violets?
Hugs and prayers, Daizy #1093 Poor House Farmgirl Chapter {A virtual chapter open to everyone.} A good day is when you find ALL your ear tags! I wonder how my cows would like my Farmgirl apron?? www.poorhouseparadise.blogspot.com |
