I got a Connie Cutler for trading purposes.. Big and we'll rooted. PM me if you are interested.

Karl - plant update needed on this thread!

Looking good. How does your plummeria do with the cold?

I think so too. :p

Need a Croton fix, someone with a smartphone, post a quick photo pleeeeease!

My Her Highness came from Jeff. It really did not do much the first couple of years. There was some pronounced growth the 3rd & 4th years. This past year it really came into its own, getting its largest leaves, many that showed the interrupted leaf form. This year was the first time I made two...

Hope we get a comprehensive photo essay of this meeting. Especially shots of the auction plants with names. I'm very sad I was unable to attend so I am depending on a cyber tour and auction.

Holy crap, can't recall seeing one that large anywhere in South Florida! Not to mention it looks in perfect condition.

Ana will want a photo and history for the Wiki.

Stan - being in the Bay area, you have a lot more humidity then most California areas. Coupled with your microclimate, I believe you will have success with crotons. Hey, your mango seems to be doing well. You probably will just have a few nights to fret about a year. With a bit of protection...

I guess Waylon has to wait.

Marie's deserts are to die for. Got the car packed with plants, pocket full of cash. Let the gala commence! :happy-dance:

The first step Randy is to admit you are powerless over the Croton bug.

I guess the broken finger syndrome continues. Probably get just a few shots of the garden tour at Phil's.

Very nice Karen! Now get another air layer on it like I told you. A Croton with 4 ft of bare stem needs an air layer. Plus you induce it to branch?

As collectors, we stay connected looking for the rarest of the rares. What Jeff's sale is doing is introducing many newbies to these wonderfull plants. Judy, Tim and myself spend a lot of time talking crotons to those unfamiliar. Often they pick out 2 or 3, but you see them at the next sale...

Jeff named it as such since he is a closet communist. :(
