I have always loved that little t-pot! Tour cactus is doing well, Alan. Won't it be wonderful to be done with this heat?

I think it would be really cute to put a cutting in the spout.
Say, if you ever want to part with that little teapot let me know. I'd like to use it for a "garden tower" Smiling
OK, now that I've said that I KNOW you'll never want to part with it!!! You'd make a tower yourself!

I think one of the rat traps went off at 4:07 this AM... Truly Nolan comes back Thurs or Fri to pick up the body(s).

Sandy (Wren) is putting together tours of the various public gardens in each region.

The thread "Public Gardens in Your Areas" in Southwest Gardening forum

Is there anyone here that is a big fan of the Desert Botanical Gardens who wants to share something?

The first Rat Snap hit at 4:07 a.m. this morning. I heard it go off in the roof.

The second snap just hit at 3:08 p.m.

I hope they were successful hits.

Oh poop. Might it come up from the base? Do you think if you wait it may look ok? Did it ever look better than the day you received it?

Keep us updated on this one. I have been eyeing it for a while but the hummidity factor always make thing twice. I think you will have better luck with the maple if you start in the fall with it.
