Very nice Sue - it must have wonderful fragrance!

Lucky you. Those smell so great and are such a neat looking plant, all rambly and bare until the green leaves poke out in spring. I don't have one, but I did grow one for a friend when she was given it as a gift. I only had it a few months, but was very impressed with how quickly the leaves developed. Great growing!

Hi Sue, My fiancee says that a beauty!! Thanks for sharing

Sue, my Sis lives in Lutz (as I may have said before) and grows many colors of these right in the ground in her back yard. My dad had a yellow like yours from Hawaii in his front yard in St. Pete and it had a few problems from infrequent cold weather. But Chris (my sister) has had really nice blossoms of all sorts of colors. These things are awsum, but no way here in Mich.

Ross, you can do them potted there in Michigan!
They go in for a deep winter rest anyway, you should give one a try

If you live somewhere too cold just let them stay outside as long as possible, I grow them in six inch pots and when they drop leaves in winter I just bring them inside the house, I leave them behind the TV or inside a closet, so they arent eyesores, and check them every few weeks for water and growth. they are supre drought tolerant, the cactus wilt before they do.
