Plants. Any Questions or answers...
 

Some things I know, some things I don't

Take a look at this one
My hibiscus, well one of them
And I just managed to propegate it
:rose: :daisy: :rose:

That's gorgeous! I just have a double red. Does it have a name?

Actually I don't know the name. When I go to visit the Botanical gardens, I will ask my friend the name of it. It is from their private collection, I have a few cute things from there. I Also have a few other Hibiscus' including I think a double red (is it super frilly with more petals tham the usual ones?), plus their babies I keep making from time to time

Right, I just found it...
Hibiscus, Rose of China
I have no Idea how many plants I have. It is a rediculous number that's for certain.

Here is one you have seen
This is a Passiflora, the flower of the Passion fruit.
The flower is incredibly beautiful, almost looks like something out of star trek but unfortunately only flowers for a day, then it closes up for good

Marry me?



(technically, it *is* a question)

It is indeed a question, a good one even.

Steph, When are you coming to Montreal? :spin:

I used to grow those in my garden when I lived in Florida. Lovely...

Why the heck won't my hydrangea grow?

Everyone else has humongous blue hydrangeas and mine looks like five sticks in the ground. :(

does it have green buds? what kind of sun is it in?

I'll try to take a picture of it tonight.

And it's been in full sun & now is in partial sun...with no difference at all between the two.

'fraid I don't know much about hydrangea's.
actually last year was my first year with an actual outdoor garden, I have always had a pretty green apt and balcony
Last year was great I learned a lot, grew some great vegetables, (hmmm I wonder will I start to glow in the dark?...see below)
Now I have a problem
I have to go to a garden meeting this thursday to find out if we can grow vegetables. Turns out the soil might be contaminated. Aye ya yae... after waiting almost 10 years for a communal garden, turns out I might have gotten one of the contaminated plots.
I hear there are some plants you can grow that will suck all the bad stuff in the soil. Going to have to do some research

YaY! and the lord deemed there will be vegetables.
Grow little veggies grow...

My all time favorite..."The five petals and five sepals are the ten disciples less Judas & Peter. The corona filaments are the crown of thorns. The five stamen with anthers match the five sacred wounds & the three stigma the nails."
