Corn Plant In Bloom!

Hey Gang!



I wanted to show you something you might not see 
that often! A corn plant in bloom!
 A friend of mine was the librarian at one of the libraries
close by. When she changed branches, she left many of
her plan. I took these pictures of one of them in bloom!
 I sent it to her and thought I would post it too.
Dracaena fragrans 
It has such a wonderful smell! I noticed it the moment I 
came in the door.

OK, Thanks For Looking!

Philly Flower Show Pictures!

Hey Gang!

Many of you may know that I am normally busy at the Phila. Flower Show
and I was again this year.  I was there the whole 10 days of the show.  There
is no one to cover me at work while I'm away.  I have get as much done before
the show as I can and do a ton when I come back.

 This year's theme was Explore America.  It was a celebration of 100 years of the
National Parks.
This is the entrance of the show. 
My husband and I sat at the Phila. Cactus and Succulent Society booth. 
Baby at the booth!
 Photos of the booth.
The booth is educational and we answered questions about cactus and succulents 
More pictures.
We had over 100 examples of plants for people to see and as questions about.
We have info booklets to sell and info on are meetings.
 I saw this girl with these skates on while I was there.
 Baby and the buffalo.
 This stuff animal was there too!
The individual competition takes place in  The Hamilton Horticourt. 
 Orchids 
There are always a ton of beautiful orchids there to see.
People love taking picture of the show.
I took some close-ups of some of the flowers.

I think I might get into orchids this year!
Amoung the orchids I found this flower too!
Martha Stewart
I talked to her too!
 I won some ribbons.  Here are two.
