Judy--
I don't think JB still sells and grows CC.s. All the problems she had with insects in the GH
and inspections--and having to throw everything out--as well as her advancing age...
I don't think she does much any more with the CC's.
Hmmm--I think she hinted in a recent post that she would still love to have a cutting or two...
Please send her a T-mail and have a chat. She would love it...She posts now and then in the
"I'm thinking of food" Thread in the MAG.
I am sure I could share a small plant or two with you. I have a lot of smallish/medium CC's growing
as well as all the bigger ones. They still all bloomed for me....I started watering them more...
I do not have the dazzling mount I had in 2014--when they were all at their best.
So me have been struggling....mostly because I did not water them regularly. I thought they needed
a dry rest for 6 weeks after blooming. Someone told me I needed to water them more regularly.
I have been doing it....We will see.....we will see....
I have 2014 photos of every variety I had. JB's favorite was always the red. She said it was the most hardy.
Funny--as it started as a broken off section on a Lowes crammed-full CC's cart after the holidays.
I went "shopping" for broken off pieces.....good way to start fresh. HD just threw them all out.
I do not know if JB actually had "Named varieties" other than the colors....eg. "Peaches and Cream"...
"White Christmas"...."Yellow one" ..."Orange one"...."Salmon one" Also her fave. etc.
I have not taken any cuttings for a couple years--as they never seemed to do well. WHAT happened???
Me thinks I need to re-pot all the bigger ones in fresh soil/Mix. Any suggestions what they will grow in the best?
Is there a color you are particularly interested in? Not sure what I have?
LMK. We can chat longer on a T-Mail. I don't want a bunch of people asking me for this or that.
See you Feb. 4th. Gita
