Love that hosta, Frenchy! I'll see if I can remember to bring you a Hawaiian spider.

Frenchie---21

I can give you several Spider Plants.
I have the striped ones--all green ones--and, maybe, a curly one (Bonie).
The ID if the Hawaiian one is iffy. Some call the all green ones by that name.
All are rooted and growing. Gita

ALL - if you've not dibbed an item of mine that we've spoke about using the swap tool please verify that I have you and your request listed under PROMISED here http://garden.org/thread/view_... If you do not see it and you're not using the swap tool please send me a tree mail so I can update my post.

gitagal _ would love some spiders from you

OK, Frenchy! I will put aside a couple Spiders for you. Gita

The Hawaiian spider that I have has striped babies, but the larger/mature plants tend to go all green. It seems to have wider leaves with a little more substance than the regular green or variegated ones. Oddly, it's the only variety I currently have.

If anybody has a spare curly spider baby (fall swap or seed swap or spring swap... I can wait), I'd appreciate it! I gave away my main plant, but then lost the babies I was rooting. It's such a cutie!

Hi Critter - is this considered a "curly" spider? If so, I will try to root one for you - or take a cutting right before swap.

Gita - thanks

Frenchy, the one I had looked like 'Bonnie' Curly Spider Plant (Chlorophytum comosum 'Bonnie') . Its "spiders" almost look like round balls, with their leaves curled around & under.

Yours looks really sweet, so if it can spare a spider, I'd love one! '

(ed to add link)

Critter, I have one for you (curly spider) - have added it to official swap list so you can "dibs" it

So somehow I've just discovered the Lewisias...how adorable are they? If anyone comes across any in yard or clearanced at their local stores...please let me know. I picked up one at my Southern States last night.

ooh, dashing right over to the swap tool -- thanks, Frenchie!!

Chantell, Lewesia are sweet plants! I've had them overwinter well for the past 2 years.... planted in 'tufa pots with succulent mix (the great stuff SSG makes with chick grit and that stuff they use on ballfields... hmm, might have to find her "recipe" if I can get the DOG search to work). They are slow to grow/multiply for me, though, so I can't divide mine yet.

I have often noticed how pretty Lewisias are while watering the tables at HD.
NOT familiar with it--but they look pretty.

Also--somewhere else--I just posted that I have good-sized "Bonnie" Spider for you, Jill.
I even re-potted it in a 6" pot. It is the REAL thing...

The one Frenchie posted is NOT a curly spider. Sorry!
It IS pretty, though. Do you know what the plant you have is????
It looks like something "Birds Nest" to me. I have NO clue! It is VERY pretty...
Can you look into it further, Donna? Is it a Dracena of some kind?

This is an Ok picture of my Curly Spider. I have a better one of it in a HB--but cannot
find it right now. Well--you get the idea??? Gita

Gita - I have no idea what kind of spider plant I have - no tag when I bought it-I'll see if I can find it again

Want:
Any plant that takes full sun - full shade, very dry - wet soil, flowers all year round in zone 6b, repels rabbits, Japanese beetles other nuisance garden pests, and grows at the perfect height (whatever that might be)

Yeah right ~if only ~

Yeah that was the point NPL.

Yesterday--one of my neighbors was taking a short-cut through my back yard
and tripped on a brick edging--then, in falling,she tok out my Maya brug by the shed.
Broke the whole plant in pieces.
Glad she was not seriously hurt--as the big brug pot broke her fall,

SO--now I have 6 pieces of the Maya Brug potted up to root. Hope it does.
My big pot has a stub left--which, I hope, will continue to grow.
Besides--I have an extra, full one left to continue.
These are available for the swap.

The Maya Brug has variegated leaves and nice, cream-white blooms.
1--Here is a photo of it from Sept. 2009.


2--And here is the way it looked before the crash. This is my extra one.

@gitagal - you should see how big the Dr. Seuss is outside right now...I'm so excited!!! If you'd trust me with one of your Maya's I'd be thrilled...love those variegated leaves. I keep seeing a Cypress Gardens one at my Southern States...temptation might get the best of me if it's still there tomorrow. Do you have any opinions on that brug?

Hmmm.... I wonder if your neighbor learned a valuable lesson?
