  4. I brought two crown of thorn hybrids (a red and a pink) from Thailand into the house for the winter... they normally reside in my hyper-tuffa gardens. They have bloomed nonstop all winter in a north window. I like them because they have extremely large blooms. The nurseryman who imported them said they were cheap but getting them through customs turned out to be very expensive... definitely a good house plant as well as summered outside. Larry

  5. A perfect plant for Easter! Hope you had a wonderful day, Shady.

    Enjoyed your Muse Day poem--April is one of my favorite months with all the promise of spring it holds.

  9. Thank you for stopping in! We DID have a sweet Easter - We spent it with part of our family and had a wonderful weekend. I enjoy visiting our daughter's Church. Plenty of chocolate/candy(!). Lots of hugs. :-)

  10. Happy Easter (belatedly) to you too Shady Gardener! Hope it was good.
    Hey what color is the foliage on the Virginia bluebells you gave me?? I have purplish growth pushing up in the area where I think I planted them ~ could that be them?? I sure hope so!!!

  11. Kathleen, I believe your Virginia Bluebells are growing!! Oh! Please let me know. :-) They often begin purplish (depending upon the amount of sun they're receiving) and then turn green... round leaflets.
