Merry Christmas one and all!

  1. Your blooming collection is absolutely stunning! I’m so jealous of that Brazilian plume flower, I’ve never managed to get one to bloom indoors. My Christmas cactus is the only thing showing off right now, but it’s putting on quite a show. I picked up a clearance poinsettia last week to add some red to the mix, but I realized I needed a better pot for it. I tried calling the walmart phone number to check if they had those self-watering planters in stock before driving over in the snow.
