Plants and Orchid Pix...
« on: August 01, 2009, 07:28:32 AM »
My New Echinacea Green Envy, blooms are almost 5" wide. Also bought E. Green Jewel and E. Fatal Attraction.


Castor Beans I started from seed, they're about 5 feet tall now.


Sedum in Medusa Planter


An orchid bench...


Recued this early spring, just old trimmed back spikes and withered leaves...now it's a VERY fragrant Phal!


And my new Wildcat Masai Red again...


 :)

Nice!  I had no idea phals could be fragrant.  None of mine are, but they sure are pretty anyway  o(:-)

Absolutely love the New Echinacea Green Envy.  Must go out to find one now!  Beautiful healthy orchids!

Neat plants!! 

Joyce, how long did it take your castor bean plant to get that big?  Tinkster is sending me some beans to battle my vole problem and I'd like to see if I can grow the plant also...

Thanks ...  Dave

Annette - I was at Lowes yesterday for some cow poo and I saw it there - on sale too!  Of course nurseries vary by location, but check them out!

Thanks everyone!  :)
I poked the beans into the ground in early May.
Then we had 2 months of rain.  ::)
