                                                          PLUMERIA



Somebody put a cutting on a sidewalk for free and I picked it up. Let it callous for 3 days and planted it. So happy to see new growth in a week and flowers to boot. I don't have this color of Plumeria so I                                                                     am so excited. Freebies don't come by too often.

                                                          Epiphyllum Dutchman's Beard

This variety of Epiphyllum looks different from the rest. The leaves are softer and thinner. It is easy to propagate and does well in the Los Angeles area. It has a very nice fragrance but the flowers don't last very long.
