News and pix from my greenhouse

[twoton]

Hey everyone,

long time no pitcher post! After selling of most of my 300+ plants, I'm now down to about 75 (not counting the seedlings), and I've criminally neglected them over the past half year - no weeding, no (fert) feeding, no trimming; the only thing I did - and that only out of sheer laziness - was to crank up the sprinkling frequency from twice to thrice a day. But it didn't work - they're coming back more beautiful than ever! ;D Here's a selection shot this afternoon:


x "Red Leopard" (ventricosa x maxima)


x mastersiana




maxima "green"


talangensis x maxima


ventricosa x macfarlanei


maxima "dark" x truncata


x "Rebecca Soper" (ramispina x ventricosa)


ventricosa x pectinata


Here's hoping Summer will be just as kind to all the others!

BTW, anyone interested in taking more plants off my mitts, shoot me a mail (hansbr_at_giga_dot_net_dot_tw), I'll send you a list.

Hey Hans ..... Your plants are looking good.

So your interested in snakes? I once told you that there are no snakes in Hawaii. This in not exactly true .... only female snakes in Hawaii

Hi and thanks, guys. My camera is still the Pentax K10D I bought a year ago. I believed there are no native snakes in Hawaii, but I guess those typhlops are everywhere.......a snake for every flower pot :-)
