It’s the end of 2018 and I have decided to share some recent yard happenings. One of my orchids is blooming. My orchids don’t look too good, so I was surprised to see two blooms on one of my plants.
The orange hibiscus plant is growing like mad! I have neglected this plant and am frankly amazed it is doing so well. I’m planning a new garden along the front of the house and another hibiscus is in the plans.
One of the plants you must have if you are a true Floridian is a Staghorn fern! And now I have one hanging from the trees out back. I had a Staghorn fern which I gave to my best friend before I left Florida and she still has it hanging in her yard. She offered to give it back, but her yard is much nicer, and if the plant is happy there then I’m happy to leave it with her. This new one is in a pot but I will re-pot it into that hanging basket eventually.
The rubber plant I propagated is still growing nicely out front under the oak. If I can keep it from freezing over winter it may grow and live to be tall and beautiful.
Hope you have fond memories of 2018 and the new year brings all good things!
