Here's a picture of our beebalm, this year. It's at least a few years old. I'm not sure which species it is, but it gets red flowers.

I think it's some kind of Euphorbia similar to Euphorbia serpens, Euphorbia prostata and Euphorbia maculata, but is seems to grow flatter with smaller, rounder leaves than those (maybe you can't tell its flat tendancy now, with the rain we've had). It's one of the most drought-tolerant p...read more

Here's our oregano plant, today. It was planted last spring, I believe. That's awesome that it's a perennial. It was a purchased plant, last year, probably from The Home Depot.

I've had a grapefruit tree for 24 to 29 years. I planted it as a seed. I planted several others, which sprouted, but they got something like mealybugs and all of them died, except this one (which became free from the pest after a while). We use my tree as a houseplant. It's never been outside...read more

I'm growing some tomatillos in a container. However, in one of the containers (not with the biggest of the tomatillo plants that I'm growing), it's chalk full of purslane! I don't know how it got there in such large numbers, but it did. Purslane is edible and I like the idea of having it in a...read more

All I did was put a few fruits (many of them were already dry) in a bowl in a warm room for several hours. This is one way they could have a long-las...read more

My tomatoes this year with unique leaves appear to be these: • Silvery Fir Tree: the foliage is feathery. • Purple Calabash (the leaves are flatter and a little differently shaped than other regular leaf tomatoes). I wonder if it's from an interspecies hybrid. • Taiga: It's a potato-leaf pl...read more
