I have plant pots everywhere: in the living, in the bedroom, in the bathroom, in the kitchen, at my wife's school, at my work in the office. So what did I do after that? Found a cactus on sale at Canadian Tire and I brought it home.

The color is impressive. Your plants are always very well taken care of.

http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae68/bananieru/2012/Garden/20121014_5152_zps2c07374a.jpg you can see that the top of the soil is actually higher than the garden. This combined with the well that I dig under it gives it more chances. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae68/bananieru/2012/Garden/2...

I will remove some of the soil from around the trunk and the mulch. This area is very close to the house almost under the roof. It's very dry. The hole I made was about 2ft deep till I hit an area with 100% sand. The mix I put in was around 50-50 soil and sand, very fast draining. I already build a ...

can you please explain (why to deep is bad)

First I was a little worried but I read that they store whatever they need to keep them alive in the trunk. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae68/bananieru/2012/Yucca/20120907_5010_zps808f25a4.jpg You can see it has some very small roots: http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae68/bananieru/2012/Yucc...

do you loose the leaves in the garage?

bananieru

a few years ago when I went in vacation in US I had 2 apples for the kids to eat on the road. They found them at the border and they looked at me like I was a criminal. I had to throw them in a garbage bin right there at the border crossing. The funny thing is that I had 2 more with a made in usa la...

...They are super easy to take care of and overwinter. Can you please elaborate a little, how do you take care of them during the winter. I have a few and they always loose all their leaves during the winter. The grow again in the spring but only from the top, so in time they end up with long branc...

Barb, if the temperature goes up in the winter, what do I do with my hut? I like my palm hut!

At 2.00 PM we had 34C. According to weatherspark.com warmer than Cuba, Florida, California and Mexico.

The only inconvenience with 1-1-1 is the weight.

bananieru

Beautiful. That Crystal Tide is something special. Does it flower a lot? How can I get a cutting?

Also, Paul, can you please help me with naming my opuntia I posted in this thread:

I moved all my citrus trees in Al's 1-1-1 gritty mix. So far everything is good.

I'm going out to water my palms.

bananieru

Mike, I don't know, sorry.

And the first water lily of the year, not quite opened:

I think my fishes got old, they used to eat them before they came out

bananieru

more opuntia flowers.

bananieru

It got three more flowers in the same day. They bloom around midnight and next day in the afternoon they don't look that great. Thanks for watching. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae68/bananieru/2012/Waggie%20cut%20trunk/20120620_2172.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae68/bananieru/2012/Wa...

Hi Madi, welcome to the forum (bine ai venit pe forum

). I remember being in Baile Felix in a winter training camp 25 years ago, when the temperature was -30C. I remember those thermal water springs.

fantastic growth. Where do you get these bulbs (corms?) from?

Tavi

bananieru

ok, so any advice what to do with it (not to die)? First, I've never heard of adonidia palm before, so I had to google on my cel, and I was quite happy when I found Christmas palm, but I think you're right, looks very much like the spindle palm. The trunk at the base is somehow triangular. In the sa...

my complete 'desert area'. Have no idea what am I going to do if opuntia continues to grow in the same way. On the other hand it's the one with the most flowers so far.

For this hibiscus the flower is almost as big as the plant

I got this from Canadian Tire for 3.99. It's not cold hardy but it's beautiful http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae68/bananieru/2012/Waggie%20cut%20trunk/20120611_2106.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae68/bananieru/2012/Waggie%20cut%20trunk/20120612_2120.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/album...
