Getting into the potting up with winter finally finished. Quite a few seedlings to pot up so time to get them growing up, this will give the rats something to think about. But if I catch them they will be thinking twice about it that’s for sure! The guagra are from rps and the heterospathe where a gift and will be muched loved!

    I need to get my pink bananas and my Butia seeds going while I wait for the cannas to develop a longer root. I read I should leave them in the water until they've got an inch of root. And I need to get these Trachy hybrids in the ground. I think these are Waggy x Princeps. And I need to move stuff around to kill off more grass. Might as well get some coffee in me and get at it as soon as the sun comes up. I dunno if I should plant these Butias or let them bulk up a little more.

    Your climate is so harsh in winter, I was in Winnipeg in Canada for a while both in summer and spring and went to a nursery holy heck I thought nothing but fruit trees (apples) and a few roses and some native trees I thought nothing is going to live in this climate. Gosh darn it was so hard to garden in that climate. It must be so frustrating for you to see all the tropical plants and only have them to live indoors.

    Nothing like 100° summers and (average) 15° winters. Yeah it's frustrating because they'll both bake in the sun and freeze in winter. Even in the shade it's almost 100° and we _average_ like 85-90% humidity. It's literally a swamp.

    You need a bio dome, or just move to Hawaii!
