Re: How to plant a hanging basket


i have ALWAYS wanted some aloe vera plants, had three,killed em all.
had some venus fly trap seeds too, killed them as well.
also had a monkey plant when i was a student nurse- killed that as well!!!

I do like exotic or diff plants, but kill em all. LOVE BONSAI'S but not even going there!!!!!

Re: How to plant a hanging basket


That was a good link, CJ. Isn't the Web teriffic; we can find things so easily & share them...what did we do without it? I wish I lived near you; would send a cutting of aloe vera: mine is huge & over 12 years old; havee shared cuttings with friends...I can't live without it, not that I am klutzy in the kitchen but there is nothing like it to soothe the pain of a slight burn & to kep it from bad blistering!!!! Bonsai...don't go there!!!!!

Re: How to plant a hanging basket


i had a friend who used to break off a small piece of her ello vera as she caled it, and rub the sap on her face everyday, she had lovely skin.
I know bonsai are notoriously hard to grow and keep, so never trying that lol
