This pictures fairly old. She's about 3 ft now. The hard part is they need what's called 'chill hours'. Don't we all? (for plants it doesn't involve Hennessey and spliffs only degrees below 40? I believe I can't remember off the top of my head). It doesn't get cold enough over here so I'm building a dry ice frame to cool the foliage over night and maybe set some fruit. It needs 300 hours or so. Not my pic below, but it's real.

Morning & happy day 2 everyone. Made some more cuts this morning of one of my favorites. Decided to share -

Ceropegia - native to Africa, southern Asia, and Australia. appeared in 1753; Described firstly by a guy named Carl Linnaeus thought that the flowers looked like a fountain of wax. From this the scientific name was derived: kērós meaning wax and pēgḗ meaning fountain (Pooley, 1998 )

'The genus Ceropegia belongs to the subfamily Asclepiadoideae (milkweeds) within the family Apocynaceae. Species of this genus bear similarities to the carrion flowers or stapelias. There are more than 180 known species and more are being discovered and described regularly. They are distributed throughout most of sub-Saharan Africa and Madagascar to the Arabian Peninsula, southeast Asia, the Canary Islands, the tropical Pacific, and Australia.'

They have many common names including lantern flower, parasol flower, parachute flower, bushman’s pipe, string of hearts, snake creeper, wine-glass vine, rosary vine, and necklace vine but over all I prefer the name string of hearts - as it tends to get tangled up.

Tricolor Sage - nothing too special about it but it's my favorite sage. Prolly becuz it's got purps innit :eyesmoke: :peace:

It can be used to cook. Easy to propagate as well. New roots even in winter / 4-5 days. Mother plants do lose their 'clonability' over time and new plants will get smaller and smaller :eyesmoke::peace:

I am not familiar with these to guide it well. And for sake of probability I would wait for the weather to warm up a little bit. THey may be dormant depending where u are. If I did want to do something I would probably take it out and check the roots / maybe then separate them into their own containers. Being such a fleshy plant, wonder if you could propagate it from simple a leaf? Next time u take any foliage off pick the healthiest leaf and put it it a water cup of sorts. My peperomia plants propagate through their fleshy leave petioles

Im going to go ahead and separate the aglaonema siam pinky plant into 3. i feel real good about it , so i think it will go well. One is reserved for you, along with a purple fuzzy fucker. The purples are easy to clone so i kinda know when its time to clone um but the Siam is going to be different...... might be a half ass question but why do you think it would be better for the weather to warm up ? Im thinking its time for a bigger pot anyways so i will make 2 medium small plants in small pots and one of them will be tiny so i'll prolly plant her into a solo for now. whatcha think ?

Heck yeah! That is amazing of u. Haha the purple fuzzy fucker will look great in the garden - I apppreciate the thoughts!

I was thinking the warmer weather may be when it is likely to shoot new growths more rapidly but I don't see a problem doing anything in the slight cold. I take cuts all year around lol. Some plants are dormant and have to sit for a while before rooting

I think it's a great idea and u should definitely go 4 it :bigjoint:

Sadly I'm not sure where they originated. While in Belize in 2011, I saw a ground cover plant the curled up when touched - illustrating that plants have feelings - was compelled to let my vegan friend know this small detail. The garden is a magical place, where seeds turn into food, medicine or mere visual pleasure. I'm never more tranquil than when playing in the dirt.

Too funny, that's exactly what it looked like, minus the flowers. I was there in November.

They are very cool one of my all time favorites. I have seeds but have yet to do any germination. I am working on germinating some other succulents right now that aren't very common so maybe after u inspired me 2 do the mimosas

They'll be a great addition and fabulous conversation plant to whatever else you have. I saw one couple years ago in a local headshop and immediately went over to touch it to confirm my suspicion. The story that went with it included where I'd seen it first, in Belize. Amazing how we're all connected in various ways.

These were called air plants for lack of knowing their real name. Just run them under water once in a while and leave on window sill. Odd how one turned colour and flowered. View attachment 4771142
