Greg and I just returned from ten days on Kauai and we're slowly adjusting to a cruel lack of sunshine, maitais, and the gentle smell of plumeria on the air. It's cold and rainy in Portland.
I gave in at the airport and bought this tree fern (Cibotium splendens) and popped it in a weirdly wonderful pot I found at Digs.
I think it looks like the Grinch without his hat on. I've set it up in the bathroom where it should get the humidity it likes. Anybody have any luck growing one of these?
I'll be back online with garden tours soon!
Very nice Heather, do post pics of wonderful Hawaii when you get the chance. Aloha!!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back to the cold rainy PNW, after 10 days of wonderful. Hope your tree fern thrives.
ReplyDeleteI love the pot. I always go with weird and wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Weird is always better. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, me too!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm consoling myself with soup and sweaters.
ReplyDeleteAloha!
ReplyDeleteI think it looks like a fancy pumpkin!!
ReplyDeleteCould pass as a gift from one of the Magi.
ReplyDeleteOh, I haven't been to Kauai in more than 5 years now but the mere mention makes me miss it. I'll be interested to see your vacation posts!
ReplyDeleteLove the container and of course the tiny tree fern, hope it will thrive for you.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back Heather! Great pot and plant and perfect placement for being watered twice a day. How's Greg's aim?
