Sorry about all my updates, but I love updating them.

Ill start with plumeria #1:

Plumeria #2. I feel so thankful that Laura gave this to me. It means so much. Thank you laura!:

My little Orange collar palm. I really love this little guy. I know its in an Ohio state pot. Its all I had!LOL!!

My palmetto. I noticed a little bump at the bottom of the leaf. I hope its a new leaf! This little guy has been through alot! Being dug up, put in a cup for a week, then repotted again. Its a little trooper!:

Musa velutina:

The main bloom on it:

The second bloom that popped up a few days ago:

My little windmill:

New frond and shoot:

Needle:

My majesty. Its one of my favorite palms to watch as it grows!:

Another shoot coming up on it. I always wonder where it gets the room to put up all these fronds!:

My chinese fan palm. I got it the same day as my orange collar palm:

And now my coconut!:

The pair of fronds coming up on it:

I didnt include the yucca because there is not much going on with it. I cut off all of the leaves on the sucker just to see if they will grow back or not. There is also either a weed of another sucker growing on it. I dont want to pull it out because Im afraid just in case its a sucker. I put it inside to protect it from the rain.

I hope everybody that was in Hurricane Irine is ok!!

Thanks for looking!

Everything is looking great! Im glad to see the plumerias are doing well. They are really going to grow a ton next summer! You might even get some blooms next summer, but if not next summer, then probably the summer after!
Thanks for sharing!

Hunter,

Everthing looks wonderful!!!

Congratulations on doing a great job!!!

The plumeria look great, but remember that the one that i sent to you is planted in the "gritty mix" and needs more water than the other plumeria...that other soil looks like it has a lot of peat in it. It will be fine, but the one in the lighter mix needs water more often the others in reg soil.

You are doing a great job!

I love the "Buckeye" container..."GO BUCKS" even tho my heart is with the "Hokies" LOL i still love the Buckeyes too!

Looking good in Ohio!!!

When are you all moving?

Take care,

Your plant most certainly will die if it stays in that cursed, wretched, horrible thing. My suggestion, buy a fresh pot, have the palm exorcised of its demons, smash the pot into as many pieces as possible and line the bottom of a fire pit with it. Create the largest fire you've ever built and then pee on it. That should get rid of any evil effects it has already had upon your palm. I will pray for the health of your plant!

Laura, if you really want it I could probably send it to you, but Im kind of afraid it might break during shipping because I dont have anything to protect it with. Do you really want it because I could try and ship it to you.
