They look like adorable little green baby butts! So cute!!!

What is the Jolly Green Giants' little friend's name? Is it Sprout? Little baby Sprout's butts!

Take some toothpicks and attach the Johnny Nardello's on there for legs, a yellow squash up side down for the torso. Let's see a petunia blossom for a tu tu skirt. A Little Blue pepper for the head. Some burrito succulent for the hair on the head. I need some help for the arms (maybe some curly noodles). Anyway, I can just about picture this in my head. Can you?

You are too funny, JaNan. Tell me something...have they confirmed your reservation at the nuthouse yet?!


Oh I'm still laughing at this post. You called them 'Johnny Nardello', but it's 'Jimmy
Nardello'!


I just can't wait to see what color they'll ripen to when they're done growing. I never have good luck with mixes or get the color I want but I was hoping they'd turn out chocolate colored because they're not so common. I'll enjoy them no matter what but it would be nice to get some cool ones that you don't see too often. Fingers crossed.

I have a very vivid imagination. Greg just came in and asked me what I was laughing at so I read him our last couple of posts. Of course he got to see the "LIVE" version and by the time I was singing "Let Me Entertain You" he was laughing too. I told him only he got to "see" it though.

I have been drinking peach iced tea all afternoon so I am all wired up! Figures since everyone else is tired.

Well. except for the hair, you could make a salad out of if after you took pictures of it for me to see! Let's see, what edible would make good hair. How about a little Angel Hair pasta? Then you could make some wings with lettuce or chard and have yourself an edible ANGEL!!!!! YEAH!

Oh, if it has turned into an angel don't forget the halo! A little tiny onion ring! WooHoo!

Hiya Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers

Ok, enough silliness.


Check out Blake's "chilly" chili plant today...





Actually, it's about 7 plants in one small pot but they are short and dwarf-like so it looks like one plant. The peppers are killer hot.

I was told banana pups don't even have to have roots to cut them from the mother and that they can still survive. This will be a experiment...





It's a Super Dwarf Cavendish. Let's see what happens...

Hiya Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers

The seed came from a mix but it didn't mention anything about there being any variegated types! I was so shocked and amazed when the buds started to open. Some of the petals have stripes, while others are speckled. I've never had one like this before. How totally cool!


I can save lots of seeds and share them, so I'll be sure you get some too, JaNan!

Very pretty and cheerful! How is your little Super Dwarf Cavendish without roots doing pictured below? Did it make it and grow roots? I have a Truly Tiny rooting in the AG. It's growing a little, but slowly. They grow slow anyway.

It was rooting Janan, but it died while I was away!


Yes, the color of 'berry smoothie' is so bright and cheerful looking. It's an easy-to-grow plant and there are other colors too.
