Only 80F?!?! That's like super hot for this time of year for us!! It's like in the 50's and I actually like it!! 80F would be pretty nice! "I would kill for that weather, but something simple like a carrot, but not spiders there icky!" (Patrick Star) But then again I wouldn't be warming myself by the fire cooking hot dogs.

The warm temperatures of the last few weeks are eerie. Here's our historical temps:

Seaner · 11-25-2009, 03:26 PM

BananaLee: Dude! 50's!? Even my pet tarantula's freezing it's nuts off! LOL!
Richard: I realize SD's crowded but they'd better make room for one more

!

A friend of mine found a stray Zantedeschia Aethiopica (Cala lily - why all the long names!?), hiding under some herbs in his garden, and let me have it! He said it's poisonous but grows to be a really huge plant! Cool!

Abnshrek · 11-25-2009, 09:28 PM

A baby tequila agave givin' it to my out-law's; that have their camper parking-in my truck.. I can run to the store in my 4-wheeler around here :^) I bet Seaner's ur spider would like it in my banana hide-away.. It's 73-76 and he could catch all my lil reptiles :^) but they keep my nanners free of bugs.. no spiders..lol

island cassie · 11-26-2009, 01:41 AM

Planted around 40 seedlings of Barbados Pride of mixed colours - yellow, dusky pink and red/orange - in front of the front yard wall. The gardeners were concerned that they might be flame trees - Delonix - which are very common here and look similar - and that the spacing was too close. As if!!! but nice of them to notice and think about it.

Abnshrek · 12-03-2009, 03:31 AM

Make sure they get a little chill while they are dormant.

Hey, you've got the most hilarious signature on the site! I crack up every time I see it.

Abnshrek · 12-05-2009, 10:06 PM

Rgr that I stuck them in my storage that's 45-50F w/ my almond trees :^)

The Hollyberry Lady · 12-06-2009, 08:43 AM

I sowed 10 Kumquat fruit seeds this morning.

: )

Steven Valys · 12-10-2009, 07:21 PM

Just received a package from Welker's Grove Nursery. Planted 10 Sequoiadendron giganteum (Giant Sequoia), 3 Metasequoia glyptostroboides (Dawn Redwood) and 1 Sequoia sempervirens (Coast Redwood). I plan on clearing some land and seeing how big these giants can get before the worms make me fertilizer.

Giant Sequoia seedling:

Dawn Redwood seedling, thought to be extinct for millions of years until being rediscovered in China in the 40's: a deciduous conifer:

Coast Redwood, Tallest tree in the world as of 2006, named "Hyperion" and found in California, an amazing 379.1 feet tall. Not even close yet:

Also re-potted a Raja puri and Double mahoi, lost in pic somewhere:

Need to cut in a cupola for my mystery musa to unroll it's leaves properly. Of course, it's only after I win the the lottery:

Definitely need to invest in a quality greenhouse sometime soon. Thanks for looking!

Richard · 12-10-2009, 07:53 PM

Hey Steve, way to go. If you give those conifers a modest feeding 3 times a year with some extra Iron and Calcium (if deficient in your soil), they get big quickly after the first 3-5 years.

island cassie · 12-10-2009, 07:54 PM

Some heat resistant sweet pea seeds!!! Tomorrow lavender, begonia and geranium (not much hope for that - too humid!)
