I am at the mercy of all things considered forces of nature.
Its all fun for now until that 1st mean wind blows thru here and wrecks the good ship lollipop on the rocks  .
I have an escape plan too. Lots of extra crates. ...

the beast has a growing buddy on the other side.
Gram. Scriptum var. citrinum 'Hihimanu from Carmelas..had one spike last year and was pretty wonky. trying to prevent that this time and send it straight up to the sky!!!
I live with my foliage more than my flowers. Its become a passion also to go with getting flowers on occasion..
