Oops! it's been so long since I've visited ATP I posted on the wrong thread! See a lot of familiar faces and just wanted to thank you for the heads up on the new forum. Will be heading north for a few weeks and will try to catch up with everyone when I return!

Hello everyone! Nice to see some familiar faces

So glad to see you here, Allison, Debbie, and Ronnie! Hope to see more of you all!

Hi all! Checking in

hi @Junebug! Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope you will join us here!

Hi JB, I think I have one of your famous Christmas cacti via Gita. It's a gorgeous pink blooming one.

It's great seeing so many MD gardeners here.

hi, @ssgardener. Hope you'll come visit!

Thank you JB for adding my T-mail response in here. Hope y'all don't mind me personally popping in to say "Good Morning", it's just so cool to "meet" so many new people, along with seeing good ol' familiar ones. Now I think I'll snoop around a bit and get more familiar with the place.

hey @speediebean so great to see you here! I hope you'll stay and join in often!!

Here are more greetings from the Tmail notice....hopefully they will check in personally soon.

JB...don't know what I'm supposed to do here but I was thinking of you a few months ago. Wished you lived near DC area..my holiday Cactus Needs some expert to revive it. What kind of soil do you use for potting up your Holiday cactus? Mine that I potted up from a plant exchange doesn't seem to be blooming, and I don't know what else I can do, except change soil and repot them up. I don't have a lot of shade or I'd put them outside in the shade for the summer.

Hello again, Everyone. If you're like me, at times, you'll be copying and pasting your posts here as well as in two other sites. Hope to see you all very often.

Checking in JB.

hi, @Carolyn22. Great to see you here! Hope you will spend some time browsing around and sharing.

Count me in! Great to have a place where I can get advice on dealing with subzero winters, 100+ summers, high humidity and drought. ALL in one region! I love it!

Yeah, not to mention torrential downpours! So--plants that are both cold hardy and heat tolerant! Good thing for those spectacular springs to make up for it all!



Great to see you here, @LysmachiaMoon! Hope you will take a moment to browse around our forum and join in on the threads!

Hi Carolyn and Annie...Carolyn, I hope you join the houseplant thread. Can always use some input from you about your collection. Annie, one thing sure, we will be no doubt complaining about the weather.

JB- I haven't been on the houseplant forum in a while. I should take a look.

Glad there is a mid atlantic forum. Thank you for starting it.

hi, @Carolyn22 Welcome! Hope you will browse around and join in!

Thank you - glad to be here Catmint.

Hello There - Wanted to check in and let y'all know I've been busy "overhauling" my iris beds all summer but will post some of my spring bloom pictures when I have time to sort thru them all and pick out the best ones to post on here.
