Been busy this week planting stuff.
Off the top of my head: I planted a 5' sugar apple tree into the ground that I had potted up. Some pineapples, a dwarf bamboo, a buccaneer palm, a celeste fig tree, a Kerriodoxa elegans palm, a bunch of assorted bromeliads, a loquat tree, two Stuttgart canna, and some other stuff... |

I'm starting to harvest the first round of tomatoes, so I planted a second round. Several varieties, and a dozen tc pineapple plants.

Does seed sprouting & potting count?
Potted up 2 yellow clivias that I (finally!) received from an Aussie eBayer (won in Dec - received in late Jan ... naughty ebay seller!). Initially had 'em potted in a single 8" pot, but I'm pushing the growth now in separate pots under grow lights. Moved 8 variegated clivia sprouts (from an eBay seed seller in China - got 'em in @ 1 week after paying her ... WONDERFUL eBay seller!) from under their tinfoil to the light stand. I really am trying to get as much size on these pretty babies before spring as possible - then everybody gets to go outside to play in the shade bed! Ooooh - also finished building 2 more light stands for seed starting, cuttings, etc! Built my 1st 2 stands while snowed in & anxious to have something - anything! - to do that had summer & garden overtones to it! I'm really ready for spring to arrive ... it's just not as much fun to play in the mud & rain. Bahhh! . |

Planted some anubias and Brazillian Swords in the stream, mounted some Aecmhea "Foster's Favorite" onto cork in the greenhouse, and purchased some new Bulbophyllum orchids!

My stream is 20 ft long, starts with a small (fake) bubbling waterfall and ends in about a 50 gal still pool. I built it in the greenhouse last spring. I'll try to show a few photos later.

I seem to have trouble posting photos to this Banana forum for some weird reason, but I will try. It'll probably have to be a string of separate photos.
This was my stream when I first started putting it in. I spliced together some pond liner and went to town. I got this idea for a stream from our local Butterfly Rainforest habitat up at UF. They of course have a huge setup. Mine is "tiny scale". I've always had a pond in the greenhouse, now I have a stream, still pool and a separate pond. ![]()

There is one koi about 6 inches in the still pool and a bunch of little minnows from the local creek, they keep mosquito larvae in check. There is also a nice large frog that lives in here and at least 3 snakes
