It's been a long time since I've posted. A lot has happened. I moved about two months ago. My parents live with us now. My dad has been ill. It's been hard, but it is a new beginning.

Last week I brought all my plumerias to our new home. Some, I pulled from the ground, others I took cuttings. Luckily, I have a bigger backyard than before.

When I went to our former home, I could not believe it- my Scott Pratt had its first inflorescence. I had waited three years to see this happen.

... and here I was, ready to pull it from the ground. :crying:

Anyway. It's done. I was not going to leave it behind.

It's been a week, it lost most of its older leaves, some of the buds. But it looks like it's going to make it. If some of the blooms open up, I'll post pictures.
Gardening is cheaper than therapy!
Boricua in Florida, I guess that makes me a Floridicua!
