.Someone just wrote a letter saying that learning to pollinate will add a new dimension to the 'hobby' of keeping Adeniums. I laughed! MORE POTS!

Gee, I miss Wilfred! And funny old what's-his-name. Owell, sigh. One thing you can always count on is changes!

I am about to give this one a hard pruning! The limbs are just getting longer and longer Unusual obesum, lots of branches

Yes, but with annuals, they get very angry when you chop off buds, and they come back with more flowers. Scientifically, has to do with hormonal changes and 'fullness'.

Haven't cut the previous monster yet--- and I don't have a photo of my full sun, but leggy yellow, that I named Vanilla Canary because it smells nice, most of the time. But it's turning into a bare stemmed vine. ick!

This one is leggy, too! Hilarious! Hilarious! Hilarious!
