Next Year

Notes to myself re: Hyacinths and potted plants

In the summer order purple Hyacinths.
It won't hurt to have a few mixed Hyacinths.
I get excited to see every color emerge.



Things in Pots:
Wax Begonias
Shrimp Plant
Kalanchoe
Spider Plant
Geranium

Probably need to buy more 3" pots, both plastic and clay.
Need cache pots for 3" plastic. All colors. My fav are cobalt, and green.

Will need new tray of wax begonia to start anew. Pink. Red.
Root both red and white Shrimps.
Geraniums are not easy for me, but may as well buy a pink.






Root every little piece of succulents that fall off.
Mixed pots with mistletoe cactus and burro tail might work.
Christmas Cactus --get all those little pieces rounded up and start some new.
Mother's Day Cactus, too. The big one needs dividing into lots of plants.

New in the Greenhouse

When we went to the city, I bought two new flowerpots and two new plants.

First the plants:

Burro Tail Sedum.

I forget why I wanted this, except that it always looks so good

in photos. Of course, in photos, the stems are usually about eighteen

inches long. I'm willing to wait, tiny pots were all they had.

Rhipsalis, Mama used to grow this. I plan to use it in Rainforest

Drops, when it puts on more growth. My Rainforest Drops turn out

as Grapevine balls that sit instead of hang, you will see below.  

 Now the pots:

My new flowerpot. I didn't have a plant I wanted to pot up just now,

so I set my grapevine ball on it. Since the Schlumbergera went out of

bloom, the ball needs a bit of enhancement.

 

I put a Noregelia Bromeliad in my new cache pot. I failed to turn its

best side to the front but you get the idea. Ike the cat loves to shred

Bromeliad leaves.

 

The new Rhipsalis got into this pic, too. I wish the Epiphyllums behind had shown up better.

They've really taken off and it's a while until they can go outside.

That tomato plant right rear had a ripe tomato. I picked it.

 

It's time to plant more seeds.
