I've seen those pots with stones here in the U.S. and thought they were really beautiful (and heavy!). So interesting to see how different your plant selection is!Dig, Grow, Compost, Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10111150807638669133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4783732461624617508.post-87589183078484772182009-08-07T19:07:57.961-04:002009-08-07T19:07:57.961-04:00Autumn Belle they have no cheap plants in this nur...Autumn Belle they have no cheap plants in this nursery...well perhaps the ones in the seed trays. I used go there when they first started and I bought many plants when they were reasonably priced. He caters to the expats who have villas here on the island. <br /><br />Lotusleaf I remember somewhere where they put a piece of fruit into the bromiliad and when the fruit rots it emits a gas that will trigger off flowering. You can do that with pineapples as well. I used to use cherries and some how flowers used to appear after some time. <br /><br />Meems I think I will go get the purple crinum. At lest there are several small plants in the pots so I will be able to divide them. I will try to get them down to $10.00 USD which is equivalent to $20.00 our money. I do have some more shots of the baby hummers which I will post later on. Have a great weekend to you too. <br />hugs to youislandgal246https://www.blogger.com/profile/09139072456332225087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4783732461624617508.post-14960740530556561062009-08-07T15:44:05.363-04:002009-08-07T15:44:05.363-04:00Ooooo...

It looks like a really great place.<br /><br />Is the purple crinum the one with the deep purple leaves? I want one of those, too... or two of those too.<br /><br />Wow, I have been so swamped I haven't been visiting around and I surely have missed being here. I caught up with the hummingbird saga and what fun! I've seen a couple of them buzzing through here but none staying very long. They are so cute and fun to watch. That green is flourescent on your little momma... just gorgeous.<br /><br />Will be watching for them to fly away ... hope you get to take a few photos of the little ones.<br /><br />have a great weekend, my friend. hugs to you*** MeemsMeemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16341998120938921741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4783732461624617508.post-92098955440747311572009-08-07T08:48:38.447-04:002009-08-07T08:48:38.447-04:00I wonder how they make all their bromeliads flower...I wonder how they make all their bromeliads flower.

Quite often, I will ask the seller to show me the cheapest /promoted items. Once they recommended (with guarantee)a portulaca seedling that looked like dried and dead. When I got home and watered it, it was refreshed and have many beautiful blooms the next day!Autumn Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00818422090556602092noreply@blogger.com
