Missing member?

5 years ago

I do not like to call out members by name, but I have wondered what happened to Rina who was so helpful to many here.

    Oh good to know you are ok. I always enjoy hearing how you move your plants inside for the winter.


    I have appreciated as well the helpful, insightful responses you give. You have a great deal of knowledge. I often wondered if you tired of repeating the same care guidelines.


    Best wishes....s

    Of course, tj.


    I didn’t mean to imply anything, just that she was missed.

    Hope you are doing well @rina_Ontario,Canada 5a! The sedum you gave me long ago was the squirrels favourite this year and I waged war against them to defend it.

    Good luck with moving all your plants in for the winter!

    It's hard for me to have a conversation and use this site because of the awkward formatting, tiny writing, and lack of different color for visited links. Probably a lot of people used to post more when it was a better site.

    I have moved all the plants inside now. It is starting to be cold overnight, and is raining a lot. Wet & cold isn't too good for succulents as I always suggested, lol. I need to organize mst of it yet, & may need more lights...Kevin, I don't remember the sedum, it was likely something common. I got few nice plants from you like this gasteria - it was just a single plant then. This has been already divided, I should do it again or repot. It is in a 4" pot now.

    And, of course, I still have too many jades!!! I did get rid of number of them, but still have too many. Hope to have some blooming this year.

    Glad to see you’re ok Rina. I have been thinking about you and wondering where you’ve been also also, but clearly none of my business. Just hoping everything was ok🙂.

    Here’s a pretty pic I took today of a Trichocereus that has not received the message it’s time to sleep😴🌵.



    Tonight I started moving plants into the garage. That’s the plan for tomorrow too🙁. We are suppose to get some rain tomorrow night around 6pm and Monday night may get as low as 43F. Like you’ve said cold and wet is no good for our beloved plants.

    @rina_Ontario,Canada 5a That variegated gastera looks super fantastic! Way better than any of mine! Can't believe you had already divided it too. Great growing and I'm super impressed.

    TY! It has grown a lot after about a year or so. Here it is in 2016 when I got it from you:


    One of my favoured plants!!!

    I know even that pot was so tiny. These grow slow yet you have done so well!
