Wow. I wish my Gardenias were that green. My leaves have yellow tips with dead crispy brown tips. Some even have small brown almost dead spots on them. The funny thing is is that it flowers a ton of STINKY (In a good way) flowers.

Keep up the good work! Im sure you have to wear a gas mask around those gardenias..lol

Bravo Mike!! That is a wonderful bloom. I bet it smells amazing. I have eyed jades at the store but haven't got one yet. I did just get my first desert rose the other day. I posted it in the adenium forum.

Mike

What is it and where can I get it? (the jade from the 5th picture)

Wow, Mike! Your gardenia is fabulous! My gardenia should look so good, I'm supremely jealous! Such a small pot, do they like their roots to be compact? And the jade plants are lovely. I just love them. I will have to share all my jades in my yard!

Thanks for posting, Mike!
I haven't been by in a while, and it sure is nice to see these Jades :-) I'm glad I got you hooked!

Josh

Hey Josh, please don't stay away too long! You have been missed these days:=)

Patty! Please share your Jades! I still have one set aside for you. I just brought them up for the summer for good today:-)
Thanks for the comments. The roots are not tight yet. It loves that pot.lol You should see the second flower that just opened today. Oh, it smells so nice.

Hi Andrew. They can't be found anywhere here in the U.S. I don't even know the cultivator of that one.

Hey Blaze..Thank you! What is your name anyhow? No gas masks here..lol

Mike! What's up? How have you been? How's that gardenia? I'll bet it's doing great now that the warmer weather has arrived. Have you tried vinegar yet?

Mike, hook me up to that adenium thread if you can. I would love to see it.
Thanks buddy

MIke

Hey Mike

The gardenia is actually blooming! I posted a picture in the other thread i started about it but here is one I took today. I did add some vinegar to my water. I think it finally just settled in. I just need it to grow some new leaves and not look so skinny.

Here is a link that might be useful: Desert rose pictures

Mike!!! That is beautiful just the way it is. Look at all those flowers. I'll bet it smells heavenly buddy! It is so nice

Mine are starting to respond to vinegar and warmer weather. For some reason, mine love rain water! Fantastic work Mike. I love the look, even if it is skinny. It is spacious and beautiful. Thanks for sharing man.

Ok, time to look at the link you gave me. See you there.
