Stem at soil line turning pale
Comments (1)It depends on what you mean by pale. Most of mine develop almost a white/grey color near the soil line. As the plant matures, there is less green near the soil, whereas the tips remain green. A sign of a good cutting that will likely root is one with the grey color at the base. All green cutting have less success rooting. If yours is not as I describe, let us know. Mike...See MorePet Peeve...Plumie Stalkers!!!
Comments (37)Andrew, Yes the neighbors moved as hell have no fury like a scored/pissed plumieholic. After the plumie tossing incident and report to the city about an illegal nursery, the neighbors decided they were going to build a patio structure. Well you better believe that she was watching and noticed there were no permits. Once the neighbor completed the patio maybe a week or 2 later, as to let them enjoy it so they would know what they were missing, she called the city and reported the illegal structure. You better believe the city came and knocked on his door. The neighbor got fined/cited and had to tear down the illegal structure. I believe that is when the neighbors had enough and put their house up for sale, supposedly it sold in a matter of weeks. The neighbor was a retired Highway Patrol officer or cop (cant remember). This was years ago and told her at the time she better watch her back, law enforcement can be worse than the criminals as they have the power. Even after they moved I was told she kept getting reported. I know though she stopped selling on Ebay and MPG, and only sells on her FB Page. Well I received a 911 call from my property manager today, she told me she was out in the front shaking out her front door mat when this guy random scary looking guy opened the gate and just walked on the property aka trespassing even though there are 2 very blatant signs that states "Private Property No Trespassing Or Soliciting, Plants are not for sale!!!!" The Prop Mgr said she informed him he was trespassing and he needed to leave. I was told she was very scared and he just ignored her and kept on looking, then he asked about the plumerias asking if cuttings were available. The prop mgr yelled at him again and said she was going to call the police, then he walked away to the sidewalk and kept staring at the plants. I was told she pulled her cell phone out to dial 911 and told him he was on Cam being recorded and pointed to the camera, then he went to his car and drove off. The prop Mgr was pissed at me stating if the plumies were not there people would not be trespassing and bothering her. So again is it the plumerias at fault or the rude, selfish idiots that do not give a s#i%. Here is the sign that is posted on the first panel of Wrought Iron at the beginning of the drive way: This is whats on the closed gate, there is a kingdom hall that trespasses all the time so I had to include them lol: Who much more clearer or ruder must the signs be? I am in the process of getting a new taller gate that only opens by key or combo. Because of someone being rude I had to rush down to the South Bay and call wrought Iron people and now spend money for a new gate all because someones too cheap to use their money to just buy plumies on their own.

Comments (19)I just purchased some pulmeria cuttings from a lady in Hawaii. The instructions say that they will go dormant in the winter, being I'm in the midwest & that it will be the second year before they will bloom. Is there anything special you do to get them to bloom? I have a lemon tree indoors in the winter, it puts out a ton of blooms in Jan. & then again in the spring before I put it outside & the ones in Jan. fall off and produce no fruit. Oh, also wanted to say, my lemon tree loses all it's leaves when I bring it indoors in the fall, but they come back after it adusts to being inside for the winter. The ones in the spring produce small lemons, I had 19 last spring, but all the fruit fell off within a week. Just hoping my pulmeria do bloom. My hairdresser has one in her home & it wasn't even near a window & it had gorgeous blooms on it last week & is about 6 foot tall. After seeing that, I had to have one. Thanks...See MoreI can't believe the size of this seed pod.
Comments (11)Hee Haw everyone..... said "Pedro the Burro"..... translated..... "Thank You" Yes it is a cutie we have had our eye on him for a couple of years but have not been to the market for about a year, the guy was selling all his products for 20% off then he took it to the nearest $0 so cheaper again. Pedro is a metre tall and so heavy. Hubby wants to paint him grey, shock horror I like him the colour he is as he sits well on the orange pebbles..I still have not found the right spot for him, it will come. Yes GH I will do as you say for his basket seeing they said on the news tonight we will have to water all of our garden with a bucket, gosh that is going to be hard, its such a big garden and they are not all natives. Thanks for that info about the seeds Alison very interesting hey if anyone wants seeds later you know who to ask. Pedro said he would be back later looking cuter than ever ....Cheers..MM....See Moremistymorn
