Hello!
I am running a tad late as I had lasix dual eye surgery yesterday. So far I am without glasses. I am so excited. I see close as well as far. It will continue to get better. Yahoo!.. but I am still looking for the glasses just from habit.
I am loving the ever increasing attention Breast Cancer Fundraising is getting each year especially here in Naples. Of course we had to have a Botanistix commemorating Breast Cancer.
The new Botanistix can be used in the many great holiday plants- Christmas cactus, poinsettia, and the ever elegant amaryllis. Amaryllis is one of the most dramatic holiday plants. Unfortunately, its actually one of the least given as gifts- why? Not sure. Amaryllis can be purchased with the bulb already planted and 'soon to bloom' or as a bulb that you need to plant when the timing is right. Either way, talk about instant gratification. They grow so quickly, if you really had nothing to do, you could watch them grow. Also they are a sturdy bloom, not at all delicate, so how convenient when the dog knocks it over with his tail. If the stalk breaks, just put it in water as you would any flower. Each bulb puts off several flower stalks. And they look stunning with a Botanistix. I will photograph mine. So step out of your comfort zone and buy an Amaryllis this holiday season and send me a photo.
Since I don't have my Amaryllis plants yet I am showing this to you on- what else? The ever prevalent in the 'Lavoy' household- an orchid.You get the idea.
LIFE REALLY IS TOO SHORT TO STAKE YOU ORCHID WITH A SIMPLE WOODEN STICK!!
