ive gotten some iris seedlings to bloom the first year, but most of them dont bloom until the spring-summer at 1-1.5 years old. if you started them now they would probably bloom in the fall...

i passed a yard today that had those angelstrumpets lining a driveway. they had many different colors. i must make these people my friend.

In my collection today there is also a piece of what beefy calls a "ZZ" plant. Wallyworld had them and one of them had some broken off laying there. So I stuck that broken piece down in my butterfly iris

look up how to propagate these. supposedly you can root each leaf tho i never had an success doing that.

Those are awesome Iris. How long does it take to get from seed to that size of a plant? Bearded Iris can take up to two seasons to mature enough to bloom.

Oh no Joe, nothing normal about your plants. Speaking of which, a good example would be those Plumeria cuttings. How are those doing?

I did take your advice Joe and I cut back the Brugmansia. The stalks are all as big as your Plumeria. I have them in the greenhouse in two vases of water. I would be willing to trade a Brug for a Plumeria!

In Florida a Brugmansia would turn into a real sized tree!

My Plumeria are all doing good. The first load I posted from the lady across the street from me are almost all rooted. I only lost a few little ones from that batch. The second haul, the huge one is also doing well. There are some huge cuttings going on from them!
Not only the ones I post in the rolling tub with seatbelts, but the big branches I did not cut up! All the leaves were removed before I struck them. It looks like a deer burial ground in the yard, with all the antler looking plants everywhere.

Bring them a nice plant and you will be happy you did!
