    Sorry to hear about JessieOG - I saw that video back when you got it and I can say without a doubt your face was the epitome of joy. That said, Jessie deux is not as big, but it is so amazing from top to bottom! And the look on your face is every bit as joyful. Happy growing!

    hi mate, i see you like to grow interesting plants
    I have fresh seeds from a tree that would make you very happy, it is a Mexican avocado, resistant to cold, up to -8 degrees and gives a delicious fruit with a better flavor than Hass avocado
    and therefore it could be grown in many areas of your island, wouldn't you like to have some good avocado fruits from your own garden every day?
    Well, if so, now it is possible, I am in the north of Spain, talk to me and I will give you more information
    a greeting

      I adore my ibervillea and how lucky are you to have it growing wild near you! I found out this summer that my plant is female, from the flowers and attempted swelling of fruit. I wish you all the best in growing this beauty from seed.

    Hi. I’ve kept one for a few years now and you are right , they are temperamental. But I’ve learnt a few things myself because of a lack of care information. I wake mine up in the spring with a very high humidity in a heated propagator with grow light. I’ve found when growing they like it humid. If they are happy they can put on an inch a day. When I first got it I woke it up and put it in greenhouse and it hated it as it was too dry and instantly went pale and stopped growing. So I brought it inside again in a place where I can control the humidity and it’s doing fine. When they go sleep keep them dry until spring then wake them up with warmth and humidity. I would keep them Kool and dry in winter but not too cold.

    • @GardeningatDouentza
      @GardeningatDouentza  2 роки тому +1

      Thank you for that very useful information. My plant is indoors since I got it and has remained in growth over winter (You can see it in my recent 'top 5 succuelents' video). Good tip about the humidity.

    • @mikiethespike
      @mikiethespike 2 роки тому

      @@GardeningatDouentza maybe I am wrong but I’ve gave mine a dormancy period over the winter I reduced the watering until the leaves shrivelled and died then pretty much kept it Kool and dry until spring. I’m only guessing about the dormancy but I think they would need one. It’s like growing a daffodil year after year without a dormancy would eventually exhaust the plant. So I give mine a dry Kool dormant period over winter to try and replicate the two seasons of Mexico. Kind regards

    • @GardeningatDouentza
      @GardeningatDouentza  2 роки тому +1

      @@mikiethespike I think you are right. Not allowing carnivorous pitcher plants or Venus fly traps to go dormant, for example, exhausts them and they die in a few years. This plant came to me last summer without leaves so I felt that once they grew I shouldn't try to make the plant go dormant so quickly. I'll keep it cooler this autumn to encourage dormancy. I hope I can encourage it to grow well this summer.

    • @mikiethespike
      @mikiethespike 2 роки тому

      @@GardeningatDouentza yes some carnivorous plants can go 4 years without a dormancy. But I doubt we could get a daffodil to bloom twice without a dormant period. I have a few rare finds without much care information so I learn about the conditions where they are found. I think that works for me . Also when receiving a plant in mail . I think it helps to place it where it’s going to live and hold off the water for a week just to allow it to climatize and come out of shock. I think if u water it in shock the shock process just keeps repeating itself.I hope you do verry well with this one. I’ve already watched every video about these beautiful gourd vines . And yours is the best of the few out there🤟

    The same thing happened last fall with one of my Cissus tuberosa plants. Luckily I was able to save most of it and I had also taken some cuttings previously, so it wasn't lost, but that's always a big problem with a plant you have gotten attached to.

    • @GardeningatDouentza
