Yep, April 14th Longwood Gardens. Interior Plantscape Symposium. Partnership between Planet and OFA. We are sending a couple of people, looks like a good day of training. More info at OFA.org or LandcareNetwork.org |

There's never a bad day at Longwood...it's worth staying over for a second day just to see the gardens and the conservatories at that time of year.
My family has strict instructions to sprinkle my ashes beneath the Strongylodon macrobotrys vine in the tropical house there when I die! Clem |

Julie,
I've been tempted to buy a Jade Vine many times over the years, in spite of the cautions in the literature that they require "free root run" to grow and bloom, and that they cannot be confined to a container...thirty-five bucks for a 3" pot has managed to keep me on the saner side of the equation, though. I'll have to confine my obsession for this plant to my infrequent visits to the Gardens and an occasional peek at photos online. Clem |

Nah, the green one is the real deal...one of four plants, I think it is, with that color flower. Another is Ixia viridiflora, a bulbous plant from South Africa...another is the Chilean bromeliad Puya berteroniana...the other is Crossandra infundibuliformis. There may be one more, but I can't recall it.
Google photos of those four and you'll find yourself instantly transported to the tropics, regardless of the fact that it's going to snow...AGAIN...in NJ tonight! Clem |
