I am so jealous you can grow these! I keep thinking I want to try some in the summer here but never quite get it done. You're really inspiring me!

The dwarf watermelon image failed to post.

US-1 Rainbow (US-1 as in the overseas highway to Key West.) I bought this one from Emerson Willis several years back. He said he found the parent tree somewhere along that road. It has big branches but is very lanky. Seems also to be more finiky than others in winter. Summer is full sun and frequent/routine watering. I think it will mature out nicely.

Are JL Haleakala and Aussie Confetti fragrant? How are they as container culture?

Popmama, you can do it. Start with a plant like the generic ones sold at big box stores. Generally speaking, yellow or whites are the most forgiving. lots of great info can be found on this forum to help you.

Both are fragrant to me and routinely bloom provided good container practices. AC is in a 24 inch diameter container and H is in a 20. AC is nearing the end of my ability to carry it in for winter.

Thank you! They aren't sold in big box stores here. I have thought about ordering online. I may just do that next summer! They look so beautiful. And thank you for the tip about yellow/white being most forgiving.

Nice Chris! glad to see some plants have recovered from that early freeze a few years ago. That took us all by surprise. Lemon Drop is such a prolific bloomer. I think 20+ out of 25 branches are blooming on the cutting Jandey gave me 8 years ago.

Here is the whole plant in 2019 when i up-potted it and began shaping branches to balance and improve the canopy shape. it had a decided lean at the time and the up pot and reset allowed me to improve the aesthetics.. most of that is corrected now. ill see if i can maneuver it out of the grove for a clear picture. this weekend to document progress.

Looking Awesome K!!

All of your blooms are looking beautiful. I hope you didnt lose to many this past winter.

Take Care,

Laura
