Oh stop your crying Baldur you know it was you... |

Now it's time to segue to Baldur's Potting Bench. |

lol--sorry about the Mr T confusion. Now that Baldur's back, I'll change to something else. Solo, the English language is pretty confusing, but Sheftali does much better in English than in German. I could never get the der, die, or das right with German nouns. My German friends must've thought I was quite a dolt. |

Oh don't sell yourself short sheftali... we all think you are quite a dolt... |

My false sea onion is also busy with it's seasonal agenda. |

Baldur, I took the opportunity to read about clivia miniata, and found it very interesting. Did not know of them before, and was interested to learn it is very South African. The Zulu term for it is umayime. You have an exotic collection of plants. My mother would be drooling (perhaps she is, there in heaven where I believe she is). |

I believe my False Sea Onion is also a South African plant. |

Unless I have just murdered it today my jade plant is behaving beautifully. |

Yes, I believe the False Sea Onion is South African as you stated. Sheftali does not have the greenest thumb either, and is often surprised when her plants do well. Many a time, the green thumb fails and Sheftali gets frustrated. I do have three amaryllis bulbs potted, which I hope will reward me with blooms in December or January. My father raised orchids, but then that wasn't too hard to do in Hawaii! |

lol about jade plants-- "they got very leggy and would flop over" I have a jade plant that is in serious need of attention. It is in a pot that is way too small, with no drainage. And it is flopping all over the place. Perhaps I'll do something about that soon. |

Baldur added 2 new amaryllis last Winter, bringing the total here up to 10. |

Baldur really must get to bed. |
