Finally!! My desert rose had finally bloomed! I had gotten the plant back in April and it took the plant 4 months to bloom. Goodness, but it was well worth the wait though. So far I only got one bloom, but it seems I’ll be getting more blooms by next week. Oh, it’s going to be so beautiful once the plant is filled with beautiful pinkish red and white peddles.
My Plumeria’s won’t be blooming this season. I guess I’ll just have to let it go into dormant this coming winter and hope for some blooms next spring. I need to find a place to put the dormant plumerias once the cold seasons arrives. I was thinking about building my own little greenhouse for the Plumerias, desert rose and my orange jasmine, but it’ll take so much time and I don’t seem to have that kind of time. So maybe for this winter I’ll just have to put them in the laundry room until the winter season is over. I know I still got some times, but because it does get a little cold in the fall I’ll have to start thinking about putting my plants indoors.
I am hoping to add some more desert roses to my little collection of plants and a whole lot more of the orange jasmine and maybe some new plants as well. For the plumerias I’ll have to let it grow for next spring and maybe start a cutting from there since from all the flowers, the Plumerias are the most expensive. I want to start a whole new collection of plumerias, but it’s so hard to maintain the plumerias in the cold season. It would be a lot easier if I was to live in a tropical area.
My brother wants to start a pond in the front yard this fall so let’s hope that happens so I can do more things with my plants around the pond. Let’s see if he is able to do as he said. Knowing my brother, it is very possible that it won’t happen. My sister in law said the same thing!
