Drowning houseplant - Thank you!
Hi madgardener,
Thank you for your kind post. As a matter of fact, I've been online since 1995, but it's been a while since I checked any newsgroups. I forgot about trolls and flamers. Even if Cereus-Validus was the greatest expert on this earth, I killfiled him. Because it doesn't matter how knowledgeable you are if you don't have a minimum of social skills. Dry humour doesn't translate well on the net, especially when talking to someone for the first time. That said, I probably shouldn't have answered him, but like I said, it's been a while since I've been to any newsgroups, and I forgot how useless answering to people like that can be. I can only hope that he too will learn from this and just shut up when he doesn't have anything nice to say. Thanks for the book suggestion, I will check it out. I have a pretty good book, but I left it at work, because it's where most of my plants are. Therefore, I don't have the name of my big plant, I looked around the net for an hour to find its name before posting, but I was unsucessful. Maybe it's a scheflerra after all. I will check in my book on Monday. The only other plant I have at home is a pothos, and it's quite beautiful. Oh, and I forgot to mention the cherry tomatoes I got a few weeks ago. No red one as of yet, I live in Canada, and we didn't get warm weather yet. At work, I have several african violets, as well as an aphelandra, and a staghorn fern. The fern is quite spectacular, although it's still pretty young. I love looking at the new leaves growing, it's quite amazing how this plant has two different types of leaves. La nature fait bien les choses (nature does things well) I wish I had a garden, but city living often doesn't allow it. So my tomatoes are my only outdoor life at the moment. I like hawortias too. Have a good weekend too... Helene in cold Canada |
