Congrats on having one weed.
I can always say I'm in nitrogen-fixing mode.

That lovely vine will take over your GH 😆 😆

Barb, around here, half my containers are growing wheat by the end of the season 😀

Steve,

Cool, Thanks!

Dean

Dioon spinulosum moving along.

Barb

Barb, great close up! 8)

How are the rest of your Cycads doing?

Steve

Here are my two cycads that are flushing.
Sorry for the clutter in the Tait pic. It's 20 degrees with snow blowing right now and I am NOT into clearing the greenhouse right now!!

Taitungensis. 4 Leaf flush.

Nova Waililik. 2 leaf flush just starting out.

Thanks Steve; the other cycads are showing only a hint of moving.

Wes nice strong flush.
When did you put manure on it?
Barb

Actually I those flushes are with manure from last year. Now with these two fast growers, I will add manure in about a month or so when I can leave the greenhouse open and get some rain on the manure and let it settle in.
With the way I put them out in my landscape, I need a good flush the day I put them out, then I like them to flush in June or July again.

Wes,
So the manure goes on after the first flush then rain on it produces two more flushes in a season.
Now I got it 😕

Spring can't be far...rotten weather has to end some time.
Greenhouses are supposed to be cluttered 😀
Barb

50's today so I got to trim that Fortunei in the background. Also was able to throw some old dead stuff out and free up some sun light thru so some of the understory trees could start getting some nice light.
I MIGHT have a new flush on a young Tait also but we will see.

This one has come back strong, ( I quit counting new fronds after 15 or so 😀

First off, Lucky, I am anxiuosly awaiting an update pic of that Spinulosum leaf!!!!!!!!!

Now here is an update on the two I posted earlier in the thread, plus a Cardboard seedling putting out a leaf....

This is the Cardboard. Little fuzzy, but you can tell the start...

This is the Wailiak with a two leaf flush. BTW, this is also the Willy that split the caudex over Winter to allow for growth around. There is VERY much noticable growth in the fatness of the trunk on this since the split. I would dare to say it has almost doubled in girth in 2 months. Here is also it's two leaf flush...

This is the Taitungensis. The trunk has put on about 4"-5" of length and put out this 4 leaf flush...

Steve, man oh man, 15 fronds...

Wes, nice very nice. Gotta get me some manure. I've been "eyeing" a horse across the fence 😆 😆
Nice strong stem on that baby cardboard.
Both Steve's and Wes' have such tall growth, looks great.

Have been holding off, hoping I'd get more than one frond, but nope, that's all. Darn!

Now a few days later, it looks weak, like it's about to flop. What the heck?

In a week or so hope to have pics of some movement on my Z.picta and Z.vasquezii, D.edule...
Barb

Barb, if you think that leaf looks like it will flop over, try putting the leaf up against a wall for support while it grows. Then after a month or so, SLOWLY take away from the wall and see if it is stronger. I had a Taitungensis leaf that was HUGE and weighed way too much on the top. It bent it completly down. I tried this and amazingly it is stronger than ever after letting it harden off.

Wes, Everything looks good!

The Cycas sp. "Wilailak" seem to be taking off, here's one of mine.

Barb,
Your Dioon leaf will harden off in a few weeks and be fine. Try to make sure it is not bunched up against anything, etc.
( once it hardens off, that will be it's final shape )

I did quit counting fronds on this one.......... ( at least 15 😀

The other Zamia floridana is starting up too,

Another through the window photo of a Encephalartos natalensis new frond,
