    Tree id please!

    Hi all, I have this lovely 10' tree in my backyard, and no idea what it is. I believe it may be a tree from China, as my parents remember having trees like this while growing up there. The flowers are extremely fragrant - smelling like a mix of banana, apple, strawberry? Well, let's just say it...

    Pings with fragrant flowers?

    Devil's trumpet seeds!

    Hi!  I'm fairly sure these are Devil's trumpets, but I'm not 100% positive. At any rate, my mother in law is inundated with seeds from this beautiful flower.  The plants get to the size of a small bush, and starting in mid to late summer, produce large (3 to 4 inch diameter, 4 to 5 inch long)...

    Pollinating tillandsia...

    I'm curious if anyone's tried pollinating their Tillandsia? I had some T. recurvata that produced seed last year, and I actually have a small one that grew from those seeds. Now I just want to make more, and get a few crosses. It would be kind of nice to breed a fragrant flowered Tillandsia in...

    Cool!

    My D. lasiantha flower opened today. It's bright pinkish purple and 1.5 cm across, nearly as big as the entire plant. I will try and get a picture sometime this week. First D. echinoblasta, with big orange flowers, then D. roseana with fragrant white flowers, now this. Yay.
