Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
Hey thanks you guys! :waving:
I was shocked to see it this afternoon, actually. The stalk and the blooms were hiding behind my shelf and I didn't even know until today when I was dusting that the plant had sent up another stalk that's now blooming! :eek: Talk about surprise...I was so happily stunned to see it there. :D A few months back the plant had a huge flower stalk on it that was loaded with flowers, but I cut it off by accident! I am so thrilled that it sent up another one though, while I've been ignoring it. :ha: I noticed it's more yellow and freckled in the center of the flowers than it has been in past years. Kinda cool. : ) |
Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
I set up a small ornamental nursery last year. We now carry (some grown from seed) 10 types of Banana, windmill palm, japanese maples...etc... I am looking for new types of both Japanese maples , tropicals (cold hardy) and banana.

I get my Japanese Red Maple seeds from a gardener in Turkey...collected from his Crimson Queen weeping maple tree.
The seeds are never true to the parent tree apparently, but I've still had some very red and appealing seedlings come up for me. The seeds were in my fridge for 6 months before they popped. Good luck finding what you're looking for. ;) : ) |

Succulent...
  "Polka Dot" cuttings taking off...  : ) |
Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
The first one kind of looks like a snow covered christmas tree.

Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
You're definitely right, you guys! That's so cool. Makes me love it even more! :08:
Here's my new Weeping Pussy Willow tree...  I totally loved them as a child and was so happy to find this special beauty! :D : ) |
Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
I liked them as well

Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
Neat, Tom. ;)
It's more special to me because it was a childhood favorite. I didn't know they had weeping ones though! :goteam: It's like a little dwarf tree. There were only 2 left after I bought this one. I admit it was a bit costly, but I simply couldn't resist. I had no idea they were winter hardy to our zone! How cool is that?! :eek: Apparently, it's grafted. Hope it does well for me because I sure adore it. :D : ) |

Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
The lime green and pinkish growth is new on my Gaultheria Procumbens dwarf shrublet...

Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
I grew this maple tree from seed and it got kind of neglected and in fact...I thought it was dead! :eek:
Today however, I noticed it was sprouting two new shoots from the "dead" branch...  : ) |
Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
This mystery seed-grown geranium is going to bloom soon...
 Can't wait to see the color... : ) |

Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
I'm really going to enjoy watching these burgundy variegated "Maverick Star" geraniums bloom soon...
 Siam Ruby from Bob, pretty red for wintertime...  "Hot Marble" Pepper from JaNan, in aero-garden...  : ) |
Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
Gorgeous shots as usual Sherry!
That burgundy leaf sure is pretty (close enough to purple for me :ha:) What color is the bloom on it? Yeah, that is real red for winter time! Good Job! I love plant pictures when they have water droplets on them. They look so clean and refreshed! ~J |
Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
"Maverick Star" is pink with white centers. ;)
I love the burgundy leaves too with the green edging! : ) |
Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers

 You can see the bud...  : ) |
Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
Those are cool pctures Sherry... I bought a variegated rubber plant about aweek ago at Lowes (big box) for less than 3 dollars; of course it was in a 4'' pot.
