Thanks Hollyberry lady! I never knew such a beauty of a pepper plant existed. I mean that Explosive Amber pepper plant. Really awesome. Is it edible?

Yes, it is quite eible - and hot too!

Just took this shot today, of my Aurora hot pepper plant. Some of the fruits are just beginning to change color, and more peppers are developing...

My two fig cuttings - dwarf Negronne, and Altreano. They are rooting in a glass of water. No roots yet, but the leaf buds are beginning to swell...





These are my Bragmansia cuttings Kylis Pink and Rose Pearl - also rooting in a glass of water...

Those Brugs should grow great, and make your place smell very nice! I hope you manage to get a few blooms from them over the winter. That would be so summery feeling... :)

Oh that would be so wonderful, Taylor!!!


: O


I am sure going to try. I didn't know they were fragrant! I am tickled by this news. Do you grow them too?


Someone just sent me the cuttings but I really don't know much about them. I am excited to grow them, now that you've informed me of the fragrant flowers. Thanks.

I used to have a white one- they smell FANTASTIC!!! Cool the way the blooms hang down, too. Didn't return in the spring like I thought it would.

Now all I have is a perennial Datura inoxa, which is fragrant but rather boring.

Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
 
Wow - they just sound awesome! Here's the four kinds I was sent...


~ Kylis Pink
~ Rosa Pearl
~ Harrenhouser Garten
~ Uconn Treasure


How big do they get? Can you grow them in a container?

Look in my gallery and try to find the Brugmansia gallery or just under Yard Shots or something. Not sure exactly where it is. I had one in a 3 or 5 gal. container bloom relatively frequently, but they do better in the ground (like most things). Almost takes a tree-like form in a pot.

Banana Gallery - White Brug (died mostly while on Vacation)

There's the link. (Will delete if you request.) I swear it would have looked better if I didn't let it dry out so much! Oops- typically don't neglect things like that.

Wow - thanks for sharing. No, a link doesn't take away from my photo album, so it's cool.


I am still in shock about these bragmansia plants. This is going to be fun. I'll show more pics later...

I look forward to seeing a picture of it's bloom for you!

Just took these cute shots of Henry and couldn't help but post them. He's having fun on his blue blanket with his rubber rainbow ball...

What a sweetheart, I love parkeets, their singing is so wonderful and they have such great personalities! :waving:

Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
 
Thanks JustJoan!

Henry is more like a parrot than a parakeet, becuse he talks like crazy, and he has an extensive array of words and phrases in his repertoire!

His personality is just adorable, and he's a real kissy face too. He's only three.

My Plumeria branch cutting is rooting really nicely now, and small leaves are pushing out from the tips...






Thank you, Bob!

One of my Brugmansia cuttings is nearly ready to be potted up. The leaves are growing like crazy...

Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
 
My Aurora variety, beginnning to change color. Notice how one of the fruits is nearly white?!!! I have never had a pepper plant that turned so many colors at once! When it's grown outside, it's spectacular...

Re: The Hollyberry Lady's Plants and Flowers
 
This is my indoor commercial Chysanthemum plant - about to go into full bloom! It is over one year old and has tripled in size!


The flowers will be snow white and the petals look like stringy pipe cleaners. It is quite unique. I will show it again when the buds open fully.





It is loaded with buds everywhere...
