Flower spotted at US Botanic Garden on 4 July 2012. Spotted at the US Botanic Garden on 4 July 2012. In bloom at the US Botanic Garden, 4 July 2012. I got for my birthday. Had three inflorescences on it- one was already full of ripening berries, the other two will be soon, hopefully. Two weeks later, this is what's growing!

An apartment dweller's attempt. At homesteading in the city. Archive for September 2014. I bought this two years ago. In Berkeley, California, at Cactus Jungle. Says it is, in fact, Orbea variegata. It has been languishing a little- poor light for most of the year (in the house), it's in the same pot I bought it in, and it keeps getting bumped so stems fall off. But it has filled out significantly, and it's clearly happy where it is out front this summer, because it's blooming. And yes, it smells.

Some of the seedlings went to live with Mr. Subjunctive. When I moved back to DC and had the seedlings I brought back with me confiscated by the USDA in fall 2011, Mr. S kindly sent two of the seedlings back to me. Newer Posts β. 8592; Older Posts.

An apartment dweller's attempt. At homesteading in the city. Archive for March 2014. Stopping By Al's Greenhouse. I picked up a friend from the airport this weekend, and we took the opportunity to stop by Al's Orchid Greenhouse. Just a few minutes from the airport. We potted up and/or transplanted a bunch of gesneriads growing in the greenhouse, then I wandered around shooting a few photos. A lot of beautiful orchids are in bloom right now, although it seems I didn't photograph many of them. I am, of cou...

An apartment dweller's attempt. At homesteading in the city. Archive for February 2015. I grew from seed I crossed are ready to bloom again this year! They grew out front last year and had quite long, luscious, green leaves. I brought them into my office in December, stopped watering them, and waited for all the leaves to die back. Last week, I saw some new leaves trying to pop up, so I decided to start watering again; and this week, the flower stalks started shooting up! Getting Ready' 5 Comments.

An apartment dweller's attempt. At homesteading in the city. Archive for July 2013. It's been raining almost daily for the past several weeks, and although the temperatures are in the mid-80s to mid-90s every day, it feels like it's still spring- which is nice, because I feel like calendar-spring disappeared way too quickly for my liking. So, what have I been up to that's kept me away from blogging for so long? In September, I got a new full-time job (no more freelance reporting/part-time contract work!
