fragrant

A very large specimen with multiple growth points. This plant produced several flower stalks during the last flowering cycle. H. nutans 'Giant' is a very easy and robust species. However, they are not to be considered a beginners plant. Please do your homework and be prepared to provide the...

Yesterday and into the night we had a front go thru with winds in the 40 to 60mph range. It caused lots of minorish damage - traffic lights downed all or in part, I saw one grassfire, several areas had power interruptions. My peach Datura got pummelled. Around the back by the garage, I...

Come and get 'em! It is difficult to do this, but I will be moving soon, and I don't want the headache of trying to take my plants with me. I have been growing nepenthes for almost 30 years and have many healthy and vigorous plants left in my collection, so here is an opportunity to get some...

Hi, Yesterday at a garage sale I picked up a quite large hoya. I could barely get it in the car and had to do lots of juggling to find a place for it. It did require some trimming, and maybe some still, so I thought I would offer cuttings to folks here. The flowers are pink and very...

I finally got a little P&S camera so thought it was time to share some pics. Eventually I'll work on improving my photography skills... Here's an overview of my grow rack - T5HOs on top, T12s on the bottom: Some 'dews: D. capensis: D. aliciae: Bog bowl with D. x tokaiensis and D...

Hello to all. Yesterday I was doing some work on the patio, and got tired of being poked by two branches of a smallish fig tree. The original was planted some forty or so years ago at the home where I grew up. Ever since I have kept it going and there are many clones of it around Texas and...

I decided to post this thread and see who's interested... I have some Jasminum polyanthum seed(what it says on the tag :p) that I just pulled from the seed pods out back and I dont want the seeds to go to waste. This plant is a wonderful viner that vines fast and makes great shade for the summer...

...an orchid? Yes! This Cattleya sp. that just put out it's first flower in my possession has an incredible intoxicating scent. This flowering orchid smells very similar to a gardenia flower and finishes with a hint of citrus blossoms. I received this plant from 2ns last year, so if you're...

So I got home after a month of absence and unfortunatelly I missed drosera whittakerii ssp. aberrans flowering. My mum took a pic with cell phone and it is very blurry She said the flower was very fragrant and it only opened for one day and died. Hopefully next season I get to see it too. When...

I have an awesome side job, which I'll detail later. I'm so excited I'm posting this thread from my phone. I'm looking for landscape/subject plants for a tropical water garden. I'm looking for plants on a scale of a quarter inch to four feet tall. CP species are cool, but I've already got some...

Up for auction is one rooted cutting (shipped bare root) an unknown variety of Brugmansia. Last year, in a two gallon pot, my plant was 3' tall and 5' wide.....and flowered 5 or 6 times durring the growing season. The flowers are the typical trupet shape from which the common name, "Angel's...

First Bloom Seedling. 4 Flowers very fragrant Thanks for looking!

Well a few months ago, I won an Oncidium "Twinkle" in an orchid show raffle, and after I've divided it, I now have 3 pots of the stuff. I don't want that many. Sooo, I have two plants up for trade. There's roughly three pseudo-bulbs per pot, and also some new growth coming up. They are very...

These are a few plants that I have raised from seed that I produced by self pollinating my plant. I have 3 of these for trade and they are of blooming size. If they do not start to spike this year then they should spike next year. I have seen spikes on two of their siblings already. They...

Just wanted to share a few photo's of these flowers since they are my latest attempt at cross-pollination within the Petiolaris Complex. I hope I get viable seed. Here's the Drosera ordensis "Type Area, Mirama Neal, Australia". Usually its only 1 bloom per day. The Drosera lanata x broomensis...

I bought a Maxillaria tenuifolia (Coconut Orchid) last summer at the RI Orchid Show. I purchased it when it was in bloom. I was moving plants around in my lowland terrarium and found that it bloomed: I have three that I'm growing in lowland, intermediate and highland conditions. I have read...
