The reality of how close Christmas really is, makes it hard to fathom considering the mild weather we've been having! It's wonderful for getting around and delivering poinsettias though! We are still in full swing packing and shipping the plants we have grown for 5 months. They are started in July as a small slip or cutting, then rooted and potted, watered and fertilized until today when we send them out for others to enjoy. We've watched with new amazement at the changing colours of the leaves. From red, pink and white to jingle bells and silver star marble. Over 20 varieties and colours! Gorgeous! We supply stores, flower shops and fundraiser groups with plants that last. The other day at my Christmas dinner, my cousin told me she finally threw it out in the compost in August! It still looked almost as good as the day she got it. It's always exciting to hear that because we strive to grow quality plants that last!
