Hi Autumn Belle!

Happy New Year! Sorry for the delayed reply. Yes, I am doing good. I am pregnant, so I am quite occupied and didn’t have much time on blogging and such

Best wishes,

Comment on Hoya Kerrii – My Hearts are Falling Apart! by Sandy

Hi Ei,

No, unfortunately my Hoya Karrii didn’t make it. Now I am keeping only a leaf of the plant, yet it has been growing well (at least it always looks the same )

Comment on Magic Bean Day 10 – My Magic Beans Are Growing! by Sandy

Yes, the crystal soil will get dried up and you would need to add water. You can mix the soil so to make sure not only the bottom soil receive the water.

Hope this help. Have a happy new year!

I have bought some beans on ebay, and so far they have not grown yet. But I’m wondering, since the magic crystal soil can dry up, what do you do? do you add more water to it? And also, if you have to do that then the top soil won’t receive the water, right?

Sandy, How are you? Hope you are doing OK. The flowers of this cactus are pretty. It is amazing to see such a small fig tree bearing fruits. BTW, did your Hoya Kerrii make it?

I am having the same problem with my H. carnosa. The leaves are wrinkle and the vine seems dry too.
I don’t have experience in growing hoya so I don’t know what to do . I water it once a day by a “spray pot”.

How is your H.kerii now, does it get better?

But you still need a CITES permit if you’re importing appendix I seeds, right?

Hi Ed,
Echeveria doesn’t grow well indoor. It needs lots of sun.
Happy Gardening!

Hey nice blog!
Can Echeverias grow under office condition (with air-con and bright lights)?
I would like to put one on my office desk.
