Another one of the new house plants I bought at the greenhouse. It is called German Ivy. I had to have it as it is not like any ivy I had ever seen. It is almost succulant in it's leaves. Thick and glossy, amd so far is quick growing. Will try and take cuttings once I bring them inside for the winter. Enjoy.

A few days have passed since I posted last, and today as I walked outside onto the deck I saw this. My air plant has produced a little purple flower, with more to follow I hope. The smell it gives off is similar to that of cloves, yummy!

Went to one of my favorite green houses, aliitle expensive but you will always find something new. I try and go every few years, whne I need additions to my houseplants. I saw this Tillandsia - air plant - aeranthos purple giant. I normally do not like reds or pinks but this almost glowed so I got it. It also though will have tiny purple flowers coming off the main pink flower. Wheeeeeee

Purple and orange what more can I say except the lilac is one of my favorites. Their perfume fills the air, relax-breathe deep-ahhhh.
