Got mine today, cheers Lok. Well-packaged giveaway.

Exciting! My first loph flower. Thanks for viewing

Don't get angry or confront her - she'll only shut down. She either has an addiction or a mental illness (perhaps an early onset of Alzheimer's or Dementia). She may not even be aware of her actions, I'm not sure. It depends on the person for how to best go about it

Great progression! Now they are out in the sun, and the one with the flower buds has 3 buds ready to go! The original one is much larger and showing its petals, nearly ready to open - I give it two to three days max. Exciting stuff. Will have photos soon. Peace

PM'ed

Yayayayayayayay yayayayy! And yep, those are Pepino fruit, grew them off a little bush. Got heaps. I don't particularly like them, it's like rockmelon and honeydew made whoopee but their baby wasn't as good as either. They make okay filler in a fruit salad though, or with ice cream.

Hey, I got excited today while doing the rounds of my plants - is this what I think it is? It's been really hot and sunny lately so I think it may have encouraged the flower. Hopefully it doesn't dwindle after this rain: And a few more photos for fun.

Groovy man, that's a nice little set. Looks cool.

Oath it's a nice place to be

Cheers guys. And planthelper, that's the catha I messaged you about and posted in the last thread. More water, less light and more TLC brought it to it's current state - I also basified the soil gently which has appeared to have lifted the conditions. Might fert soon.

Hey Alice. The Brug is one that's been growing near a shopping centre close to my house for longer than I've been alive, and I've seen it be every colour - from white, to peach, to yellow, depending on the time of year and temperatures/rain. I find that a very interesting feature, one I haven't observed in brugmansia before. The Loph grafts are in partial sunlight/mottled spotlight for most of the day and receive full afternoon sun at about 3:30 PM. This the condition under which they experience the most growth. After measuring, the one with the pups is now 37mm wide and 21mm tall, and the other is 35mm wide and 17mm tall. They've both grown about 1-2cm wider within the last four months which is exciting. Thanks

As I'm moving away shortly, I am deciding to do what may be my final garden update, at least for a while. So enjoy Misc: Calendula Bhut Jolokia Cayenne Euphorbia Bridgesii: Macrogonus: Lophophora: Pachanoi: Cuzcoensis: Peruvianus: Syrian Rue: Catha Edulis: Bonsai: Brugmansia: Thankyou!

After so, so many tries, I think I just took the cake. 150.32 WPM, 100% accuracy (I acknowledge it doesn't matter)

Stop trying, you'll only hurt yourself ;)
