first is a bit of a leaf problem... but I'll have to get a close photo to see what I'm talking about... and the other is bud drop.. I saw some the other day... what can I do

LOL! Yes, that is quite a problem you have going on over there! (I hope it is contagious!)

Whoa, that puppy's sure as heck not growing in Brooklyn NY, Gordon! Where are you?

Is the problem something to do with not dropping enough buds? Not enough leaves? I'd recommend next time not to plant it over the septic tank. . .

Magnifique! I'll bet the fragrance at night goes for miles.

Here's my 'baby' Charles Grimaldi tentatively putting out a few flowers.

Gordon that plant is amazing, I have never seen so many blooms on one plant.

I'd love to have that problem, but that's not going to happen.

That's an awesome plant. I wisht I could grow one like that.

Carol...Gordon is indeed in Brooklyn and he gardens on his roof.

well I must confess...that plant belongs to a guy named Edwardo in Ecuador.. just to show off just how well ours are doing... sorry... I too wish mine did as well... although not having to dig them up every few months.. and cool temperatures with high humidity of 65% with full sun that's about overhead all year long... and my plants would also look so lovely... I can't blame myself or my plants... but it's the best we both can do under the circumstances..

Has anyone seen or heard anything from Chocolate Brug, He has been missing for a couple of months now and I am worried about him. I would appreciate any news.
