Local nursery has large potted Parsoni and Blue Pacific plants for "ground cover". Many of these pots have multiple trunks with A LOT of movement. Usually 2 or 3 trunks of decent thickness, long leaders, and they seem HEALTHY. Many beg to go cascade, others beg to be radically bent. And did I...

Rescued a pot of three Azalea cuttings. No clue what species. Two of them came out happy happy, one of them I don't know if it'll make it. Treating for petal blight as well. Blossoms are appearing to be soft powder pink, slightly ruffled, with hot pink/fuschia freckling. My tablet sucks at close...

I swore I wasn't going to touch this plant until deep into spring when her blooms started to fade. Swore. Well... I swear the plant started talking to me and was begging for a bit of a clean up and some attention. It wants to be a Bonsai. It really really does. I, however, lacked the testicular...

Two days ago I went on a pre-spring Lowes raid to see what there was and to hopefully find an Azalea project. I found the project... Poor sweet set of 3 cuttings suffering petal blight that are being left to heal and grow up before I do much of anything with them. Picked up a Bougainvillea that...

Went out today in search of the fabled box store epic Azalea. Turns out they got them in 2 days ago and were completely sold out aside from one poor little pot of three cuttings...

A lot of these trees have a lot of interesting movement, and I'm starting to wonder if snatching seedlings is seriously worth it. I've had people trade me for seeds out of state, so maybe...

It's January. It's hot. It's south Florida and everything around here is showing new growth. That makes me itch for new projects and new projects usually mean azaleas because... Well... I'm addicted. My Bougainvillea cuttings are doing well and I'm tempted to go and try and much bigger cutting...

So... A friend of mine who's a true rose enthusiast, but hasn't been able to grow their own due to economy forcing them into a studio apartment, has challenged me to attempt a rose bush bonsai. I've seen climbing roses and seen plenty of interesting stems and trunks on rose bushes, but how well...

Seedlings, graftings, rooted cuttings... Don't care, just want them!

My husband's work had a very interesting tree planted a couple months ago and it seems to be doing very well with very little irritation or stress from the move. I have noticed some black spots on the leaves, but they appear to be on ALL the leaves and the tree is continuing to grow with no dead...
