Sorry to hear about your streptocarpus - they can be difficult if they don't get the right water. They looked lovely in those planters.Rosie Nixon Fluertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10851979959739600135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-16125190391406458952010-11-28T15:03:31.822-05:002010-11-28T15:03:31.822-05:00Your violets are pretty!

I lost mine too a few years ago and figured it was just neglect on my part since I'm not much of a house plant person. <br /><br />I love your African violets and I see a lot of promise in that Amaryllis bulb!

Your Christmas catus is great. Ours is just green, but no blooms. We are going to try to get it to bloom by Christmas. Time will tell. Your violets look healthy also. Cannot wait to see your Amaryllis in bloom. Ours grow outside in the ground and are finished each year by the end of May.

Canadians celebrated Thanksgiving in October and I am now decorating for Christmas. <br /><br />I love the amarylis planter! So pretty! I hope yours blooms for you this year. I've had good luck keeping them in the past. <br /><br />Indoors I have two varieties of palm and one asparagus fern. I brought in a pot of sage and parsley and so far so good. I always bring in one particular geranium and it has decided to bloom again. <br /><br />Hope you have a wonderful weekend!Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06065113724187544247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-68080778624116575262010-11-26T15:07:11.215-05:002010-11-26T15:07:11.215-05:00PS Lona ..
