I am blown away by your FOCUS. We just finished reading the Steve Jobs book by Walter Isaacson, and that was his (Jobs') main key to success in anything.
ReplyDeleteThis is great! And holy moly you have a lot of agaves!
ReplyDeleteI keep a plant list on an Excel doc. Along with the genus, species and cultivar, I keep other info I need to remember in the various columns, like where I acquired it and when, or any special care notes. It has been invaluable when my brain fails - as it does on a regular basis!
I would love to see/hear about your Sansevierias! I thought to check here for them based on your comment on this page: http://www.stupidgardenplants.com/archives/unidentified-cactus-still-plant-hoarding-even-in-the-winter#comments.
ReplyDeleteGreat blog, keep it up:)
I wish I new what they were and I would share the info! I only have three, none of which I have tags for. Two were bought as "houseplants" at the big box (the one in the comment you mention) and the third probably had a tag at some point but that was a long long time (and several moves) ago. Sorry!
DeleteI finally did a census of cacti and succulents and I am at 287! A species list is forthcoming this winter ...
ReplyDeleteDustin
http://cactguy.tumblr.com
I saw that on your blog last night...WAY IMPRESSIVE! I wanted to comment but can't figure out how to do so on your blog.
DeleteI really wish tumblr and blogger would "play nice" together ...
DeleteMe too, as well as Wordpress. So silly that we can't all just get along!
DeleteHi, New to your site - and also to pointy sharp daggery plants!! Which I now lOVE!!
ReplyDeleteIt would be SO awesome if you included links to their pics here! Ya know - in between your otherwise busy day.
:)
Wouldn't that be fabulous? I'll get my assistant on that asap! (that will be a great project if we have a rainy spring)
DeleteYou really ought to get Rosa minutifolia--it's native to California (and Baja) and thorny as all get out. Can be persnickety too as it doesn't like too much water and will croak if kept too wet in summer. But it's so pretty with lovely mauvey pink flowers waving around on those bristley canes with fern like leaves. Plant likes to bloom after rain, so flowers can occur at almost any time of year.

ReplyDeleteI thought I read on your blog sometime back that you were interested in Acanthogilia gloriosa. The Rancho Santa Botanic Garden in Claremont, CA has a big one growing on the grounds. Armed to the teeth! With beooootiful white flowers. If one is a member, one can buy a packet of seeds from RSABG....... I have a bunch of pics of this plant if you want to see it.
Thank you for the plant leads Tessie! I think one thorny rose is enough for me (I can't risk my reputation as a rose hater you know! And I've already got the Wingthorn rose)...but yes Acanthogilia gloriosa looks like something I'd fall for. I wonder how it would do up here in rainy Portland, Oregon?
DeleteThank you so much for sharing your passion. I'm a trainee garden designer creating a tropical garden for a sheltered UK plot. Your combination of plants are wonderful and have truly inspired me. Thank you so much. Nicky
ReplyDeleteTypo: Opunita --> Opuntia.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nell, I do that one far too often!
DeleteI need a recommendation for the Willamette Valley, a dark euphorbia and a variegated green/white one. What do you know of "blackie" and glacier blue"? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWell, I know nothing. I've not grown either one. E. 'Blackbird' has its moments of looking fabulous, and then some not so fabulous. E. 'Ascot Rainbow' is a nice variegated one. Good luck!
DeleteWhere did you find the plant Stachyurus salicifolius? Saw it in a Seattle nursery, but have not been able to find it here on the East Coast. Appreciate the help.
ReplyDeleteI purchased my plant at Cistus Nursery here in Portland, Oregon. They do mail order!
DeleteYou want an A. baileyana 'Purpurea'?!? I have one you can have. It needs a good home.
ReplyDeleteI might also have a Yucca 'Color Guard' or two.
Your blog is the best! Thanks for sharing your garden adventures.

Hi Stacey...thanks for the kind words! You know I never say no to plants that need a home...
Deleteif you are ever interested in trading some plant material please email me ediblelandscaping.sc@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI think you should get a hylocereus
ReplyDeleteMe too!
DeleteGreat blog! Did your Melianthus major ‘Antonow’s Blue’ die or why did you cross it off your list? Any idea where I can buy one (I live in Seattle)?
ReplyDeleteIt did die. After many many years of being cut back to the ground every spring it just refused to play along. It might have been the severe winter too (20016/17). I’ve no idea where in Seattle might carry them. Good luck!
DeleteDo you ever sell or trade rooted cuttings. I used to have passiflora sunburst but lost it when I got really ill one year and could not care for my plants. I got mine from grassy knoll who no longer carries it. I really miss this plant and would love to have it again. Please let me know if we can work something out.
