Re: Anyone interested in another ROUND ROBIN in April?

You are right. Living in Florida You forget that the rest of the world has all four seasons. Not just summer and fall. April is out. Maybe July will be better. Let me know.

Anyone interested in another ROUND ROBIN in April?

I was thinking of starting another Round Robin Trade, and thought April would be an ideal time. Soooo.. let's have some ideas how to make it work smoothly and not omit any interested members. Let's hear those ideas and find out who is interested.

Re: Taking the Plunge - Minime8484's 2013 Seed Adventure

It looks like a great list! Good luck with the Arthrocereus rondonianus. I have tried to grow these past the seedling stage several times. Maybe we can work out a trade in a few YEARS.

Re: Florida Cactus?

I have never seen saguaro here in Orlando. Cacti that don't like humid conditions do not seem to grow around here except in protected environment. I have seen plenty of Cereus peruvians over 20 feet tall that look like trees. I think Harriet has it right.

Re: December in Arizona!

I am admiring the mountains in the background... It has not gotten to freezing here yet and I could use some rain. I guess we all have to complain about something. Great looking plants.

Re: Dragon fruit

Also they may start to split. when they ripen. They can over ripen. They get mushy and sometimes the seeds start to grow inside the fruit.

I cannot identify the plant, but it has a very nice flower. It appears to be bigger than the plant!

Re: Help!!!!!

You would get much better answers to your question if you post a picture or two. You know the old saying a picture is worth a thousand words.
