Yeah I noticed those same trachies years before looking pretty bad.

I kinda remember some of the light show.

Barb, It was great being in the sun and the temp being around 18c.

I'm
getting really tired of this cloudy weather.

Here's a few pics from my Las Vegas trip a couple weeks ago. Sorry I didn't get to take my usual amount of pictures. I'll get a ton more this summer. :) I'll start with the bad first. Here's a couple chopped trachys. :( http://i802.photobucket.com/albums/yy307/jaylatour/DSCF31962.jpg Me doing what I...

Ok good. I can handle 60f/15.5C.

I will try to take lots of pics.

Dang cold snap! I'll be in Vegas next weekend. I guess i'll bring my jacket.

Thrilled with her choices...or could it be that Jay helped???!!!!

Actually your daughter picked those all by herself.

She did a great job.

Welcome to the forum EarthWorm and Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Great pics barb.

My wife would like the last one.

Wow! It's almost Christmas time again. Where does the time go? Not long ago I remember sitting out in the hot sun drinking some beers and now it's cold and not too sunny out. :( Anyways let's have some fun. What's on your Christmas wish list? Can be palms, yuccas etc. For palms. Needle Palm - Rhapid...

Thanks Tim.

Hey Thanks Mike.

I don't really cover or heat anything for the winter. I usually just use an umbrella cover for the little ones for the first winter or two Well, since you're only 35 miles south of me, maybe I should try that with one of the three y.rostrata. And you could attend the funeral in April :lol: :lol: Ba...

Hey thanks Cameron,

Yes that's a recurvifolia in the second pic and a trunking one in the last picture.

Thanks Barb,

I'm too lazy to cover and heat my plants.

Thanks Paul, Yes that's a recurv in pic #2.

That's my mystery yucca.

I bought it 7 years ago and I believe it just said yucca on the label.
It's starting to trunk. I always thought it was just some form of glauca.

hardyjim wrote:Beautiful color on those Rostrata!

Thanks Jim, Can't wait till they all get bigger.

Thanks Igor, I have no elatas yet. I don't protect the big ones. Only the little ones get covered when
we get our cold snap every winter.

Thanks Aaron.

Hey thanks Bryce.

Been awhile since I posted any pics. Here's a few updated pics of some of my yuccas. :) http://i802.photobucket.com/albums/yy307/jaylatour/Yuccas%202012/DSCF2918.jpg Y. Rostrata planted from a seedling given to me from Aaron (desertzone) http://i802.photobucket.com/albums/yy307/jaylatour/Yuccas%2020...

Awesome Trunks!

They might look like these.

Very Nice! Wish those were in my yard.

I think they would look cool trimmed.

DesertZone wrote:Can't wait to see pics of those mosters again.

I always have to stop and see the monster yuccas.

Here's a pic from last weekend.

Cool, Your elata looks great. I got some new pictures last weekend of the elatas
in Oroville Wa. flowering. I'll post them soon.

Very nice Barb. I kinda remember those yuccas after being
let out of the cop shop early morning.

Just kidding!

Awesome pics! Looks like paradise to me.

Didn't snow in kelowna. Looks like we missed the fun.

Merry Christmas Aaron and everyone else.

Good score John. If anyone can bring it back to life it's you.

AND....DRUMROLL!!!! NEWS
John and Lillian got engaged last weekend (he probably wouldn't mention it, so I will).
Their wedding is in 14 months.

Congrats John. I just celebrated 10 year anniversary with my wife.

Time goes by fast.

Looks like you all had a great visit.

Okanagan desert-palms wrote:Jay always nice to see your pics from your annual trip to Vegas. To bad you can`t bring anything back from the local nurseries? I`m sure you could pick up Yuccas on the cheap.

John

That would be awesome. If I could I would rent a u-haul truck and load it up.

Hey i'm happy to share.

Had a great time but I'm sad that the Sahara casino shut down.

@Paul.

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

Duncan, We didn't make it Red Rock Canyon. We planned on renting a car and heading out that way but didn't happen
this time. There's always next time.

Was in Las Vegas about three weeks ago. Have a few pics. Sorry didn't take as many pictures as I wanted to. It was so hot in Vegas this building melted. :) http://i802.photobucket.com/albums/yy307/jaylatour/Las%20Vegas%202011/DSCF1100.jpg http://i802.photobucket.com/albums/yy307/jaylatour/Las%20Vega...

Thats awesome Jay.

Thanks Aaron, I'm happy it's growing back.

I'm off to Las Vegas tomorrow. Any picture requests?

That's great. I just noticed mine is growing back after it died from the winter.

Great photos Aaron, I still remember visiting your friends desert garden. Amazing.

Wow! Nice find John. Is that the place near Clifton rd?

nice collection of southwest plants. How cold did you get to kill a recurvifolia? There's only one form which regularly dies to the ground here in Massachusetts (same form?). Rob from Tenn. sent me a small sucker from a Tenn. native Y. gloriosa/recurvifolia which is on steroids. Everyone should hav...
