What variety is it? I have an identical palm which was given to me by my mother-in-law. A friend gave it to her and nobody seems to know the name. I would love to propagate this little tree which has flowered but I can't seem to find out exactly what it is. If I can pollinate it great, if not I can get another to cross pollinate if I were aware of the variety.

The little vine you had with something else , my neighbor calls it a Kennilworth (No,not the truck.) I have it growing all over my porch etc and we both love it. Such a nice shaped leaf and the flowers are nice too.<br />Thank you for your visit and I am so glad that you enjoyed the Digger's story. I believe there is an American version also with GIs in it. I agree with you and your husband that the brave troops from every country deserve our prayers and gratitude.

Do you let them grow and bloom all winter or do you keep them dormant for a while? My mother in law used to put them in the attic for the winter and in the spring bring them out and they would flourish. She had some very old ones. YOurs look great now. Nice to hear from you and I hope the wait for spring isn't too long.Teresahttp://blog.gardenshoesonline.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997403.post-31279363132109694062010-01-23T22:06:09.729-05:002010-01-23T22:06:09.729-05:00Wow Kerri!

I felt a little silly bringing my little watering can planter in with a few cheap cell pak wax begonias, but it was just too pretty to leave to the weather. I've been enjoying the blooms and the shiny purple foliage.<br /><br />Love the clivia, and the palm blossoms look like little strings of pearls - very cool!garden girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13284047851881823280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997403.post-21924927606537478982010-01-23T06:06:04.002-05:002010-01-23T06:06:04.002-05:00Dear Kerri, when seeing all these beautiful bloomi...Dear Kerri, when seeing all these beautiful blooming plants you have, I get the feeling of already having Spring or being in an exotic country. I know all this beauty needs loving care, but your "work" is rewarded with all the flowers you get.

Thank you too, for the Christmas card... it is always such a joy to hear from long distance blogging friends.<br /><br />I can well imagine your excitement at the bursting of the buds on your Clivia. I love this plant... I have several... all grown from offshoots of one I bought years ago and like your friend Marie, I have passed on many to friends of mine too.<br /><br />Yes, I do agree the Goldfish Plant looks very much the shape of a leaping dolphin..... gorgeous colours that are sure to brighten up dull days in January.<br /><br />Your paperwhites are a fun shape.... don’t think I’ve seen them before. You have so much in flower right now.<br /><br />When we went away at Christmas I was very remiss in not moving a number of my plants from the window sills in the conservatory and temperatures dropped considerably and sadly I lost most of them.<br /><br />What a beautiful picture of Hannah enjoying a little sunshine. Such a pretty gentle girl. Yes, our furry friends certainly know where best to stay during these cold days.<br /><br />Good wishes to you and Ross. Stay safe and keep warm.

I didn't take it outdoors (I'll remember that for this year) but I did move it to the basement for a couple months this winter (dark & cool). Nothing is happening. boo hoo. I was so hoping for a big bloom stalk like you have. It's just gorgeous. You have so many blooms it's crazy!

My Amaryllis is patiently waiting until I get back from visiting the boys and grands. Then, I'll begin watering them and they'll bloom once I get them outside in June.

Even when I had sunny windows, I could not grow begonias. They require too much humidity for cold climates (anyway that is what I was told). <br /><br />My Toby is going a little crazy from being kept in. He frequently makes a break for the door when I go in or out. Of course he chooses a time when my hands are full.<br />MarnieRoses and Lilacshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07121676379580186489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20997403.post-50872469111209564372010-01-17T18:32:31.521-05:002010-01-17T18:32:31.521-05:00Once agin I miss Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day; p...Once agin I miss Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day; probably because my plants are stressed out.
