Crinum
I love this crinum for its beauty and fragrance, one stalk in a vase fills the room with its sweet smell.

Brig. sb
Each and every plant shows your dedication, hardworking and love.
Three years back, one of my friend sent me Wisteria vine plant and seeds from USA , plant died within one month and had no success with seeds. Your Wisteria plant once again opened my eyes and I am again in love with this vine , anxiously waiting for mine.
What is the name of this beautiful Crinum? Its new for me.

Brig sb i think Viola & medium sized pansies are better choice than the huge sized pansies.The blue viola looks very cool.

Strange, it is just the opposit of what a friend who has many tells me.
Yes, Euphorbia milli thrives if watered regularly in summer but cutting back water to a single watering per week and fertilizing with a 20-20-20 formulation fertilizer starting from March to September after every 20 days really helps, if it is deprived of water it will dry up and die... that's my experience :geek:
