Nah, it's chill. I'm actually happy that I can pronounce it now!Originally Posted by DJ57
I was not trying to be the pronunciation police, lol, just thought you might really want to know.
Yes, it does flower better in shade, but my mother has some in pots that get a lot of sun and they do okay, but this is Oregon with more cloudy days than sunny it seems. The ones she has under the trees with shade and dappled light flower profusely, I love them. They are very easy to grow and spead very nicely over time.
Hopefully mine will spread. The leaves look very pretty. I can't wait for my Lily of the Valley and that other one to pop up, I will absolutely die for the flowers on those!

Pacific Chorus Frog... They are the LOUDEST things. I hear some from a lake three miles away, others from the drains about a mile away and others scattered about. I haven't heard this one call tonight, so I'm pretty sure it's a she. Since she looks fat, I'm hoping she'll lay eggs right in the water reservoir in that fish tank she was in. When I went outside to get my bottle of nep fertilizer after dark, she was crawling on the glass inside the tank. If she lays eggs in there, I can watch the tadpoles grow up and maybe some will return next year! Would be fun to have a few in the greenhouse as long as they weren't crawling around where I would step on them.What type of frog is that?
Passion flower came today. Growing on the toilet to acclimate to light, will be moved to the greenhouse tomorrow.
The heater/swamp cooler are scheduled for delivery tomorrow as well. I will get the four coffee plants on Monday. Not sure about the three kinds of sugar cane, but should be here within a week or two.
I love passiflora. What kind is yours? I have a really cool hybrid that's tiny called P. manta.
Passiflora serratifolia. Should look like this...
When should I repot it? It's in a pretty small container and it's in some sort of green foam...
I'd go ahead and repot now. A bigger pot is always good. Put in some rich potting soil and it will like it. They are very easy to grow. That's a very nice one. Here's mine. It's teeny tiny.

I got it from a friend on flickr. It will fit on the tip of your finger.
Got my four Coffee arabicus today. A bit smaller than expected, but should grow pretty fast. Moved them to the shadiest part of the greenhouse. Potted with 1/3 sad, 2/3 potting soil.
And the passiflora all potted up in 1:1 sand/potting soil.
Wow! Smaller than it looks I guess.
Hopefully not about to open... It needs to be white and tubby like the picture I ordered it under...
Hanging with it's lower peep...
Looks like the lower one told a bad joke and the upper isn't laughing... You know, cause the lower one is open like it's la...
