It's 48 degrees right now and dropping to 39degrees overnight. Dang thats cold. It rarely gets this cold here. I brought all the plants in for tonight and they say its gonna be that cold tomorrow also. So here is the collection in just a few shots. The Frangi is just starting to grow, the desert rose is starting to branch and here is a sneak peak at the seedling stand that is now about half filled. I have 46 tubes filled with sprouts. The last shot is the travelers sprouts. You can see the progression between them spike, just popping out of spike, and first leave coming out. These are going in some 1gallons tomorrow.
Well being born in a paradise like I was here in South Florida I have always taken all of my tropical plants and palms around me for granted. Just recently realizing how lucky I am. I'm going to take full advantage of this tropical climate. This blog is going to show all of my trials and tribulations with growing different species of plants and trees. Feel free to check back regularly and watch my plants grow.

I discovered your blog from the listings at Blotanical. Welcome.
ReplyDeleteNortherners probably laugh at our posts on cold weather and our plants stacked on the kitchen counter and table. We just brought our orchids in again - hopefully for the last time this winter! I've posted a link for you on my iloveplants.com Website under Florida. You can find more Florida bloggers there.
