Daen: I love your first picture! Reminds me of cotton candy!

Winter here in Mtl has been kinda weird. We had so far 3 snowstorms all followed by warm temps (near/above 0C) since winter started, which was maybe 2 months ago. I can't wait for spring!

This is my tallest plant and I'm hoping for a flag soon so that I can get some idea of what sort it is. I liberated a pup from a stand near the beach where the fruit is always picked well before it is ready. The ragged leaves show the sort of weather we have had over the winter.




These 2 dwarf cavendish types are coming on - as they are still fairly small, their leaves are protected from the wind by the walls and palms


The apple is markedly more slender than some of the others.


This baby is the orphan from the lagoon which has finally decided to start growing properly, and seems to have lost its red leaf markings. Another mystery nana!

I like dust devils too. We never get them here in Arkansas though...only the big tornadoes.

Ladyfinger not doing at all well. I keep hoping that it will suddenly produce a pup as the one leaf it originally had stayed green for about 2 months.




Locally called a rulo, very handsome plant imho.







Red banana steaming ahead - also caught the wind.

Well Austin - I am relying on the fact that nanas are tough and hard to kill, although with all the rain we had, it did stay pretty wet there for a while (11.2 inches in a week and one day we had 6.8 inches in 24 hours). haha!! I had to keep going out to empty the raingauge as it was getting near the top. But now it is dry and getting warmer - hooray!
