This was a gift from my friend Olga today - she visited with the little puppy and brought the plant with her.

I'm hoping to propigate by cuttings and get a coupla' more plants outta' the deal.

I'm so greedy ;-)

I can propagate it seems - you're supposed to take a stem that has 2 or more nodes.

Tomorrow morning I'm going to be cleaning up some of my plant areas. Due to some pointed remarks made by the mastermind here.

I'm going to bring my plant stand out of the office after I've taken my books off it. I'm going to put it out in the lobby and set all my coleus on it.

I think all the plants will enjoy more sunshine. That will leave room in the office for my seedlings.

I might take serious look at that schleffera and see about making two plants out of it. Something tells me it's growing right now and could do with some room.

I'll be going out to the west coast on the 4th of March, so Jeff will be watering everything. I look forward to coming home and finding spring just booming!

Leaving in the winter, returning in the spring - I just love that idea.

I got it all cleaned up this weekend. I'll be taking pictures later - I'm waiting for my amaryllis - she's just about to pop.

The small suckers I planted are a little bigger - looks like I might get more plants out of the thing.
