Cont'd Acquisitions
Good Morning! I thought I'd post my plant haul as stated in the last post. I typically forget such promises. First up, Dry Oasis Plants in Half Moon Bay. He ships, fast & well. But with the new area I've got to play with, I couldn't resist making the hour+ trip to nab some larger specimens. Aloes in order form order---thraskii, vaombe (open cross), salm-dyckiana, pretoriensis (open cross), labworana, carpenteria gem & bussei I'm currently babying these aloes. Hans' plants are accustomed to greenhouse life, so I'm giving them full sun until about noon or 1 pm, then opening the table umbrella to shade them. So far, so good! Aloe tongaensis 'Medusa' 7g. from San Marcos. Medium tree aloe to about 10' with orange blooms. The leaves stress a little orangey which I 💚. Aloe ferox-something. I like the stacking leaves, and the upright growth makes me think it was crossed with another tree aloe? Time will...
