Have any plants you are currently growing/tending to or planning to grow?

Wandering Jew would be my next plant to tend to if I can find it. Thanks for the recommendation Michelle. XD

Cottonwoods look really neat and I bet they do look great. XD Not sure if I saw one myself, but it would be great. XD

I hope so too. XD

They're quite common here. Their seeds blow everywhere and they end up in flower pots.

I'd like to try Wandering Jews as well. They're really pretty plants.

That's really neat. XD Pretty convenient to grow then if they're all around. XD

Also true about the Wandering Jew, they really are pretty. If they're easy to take care of, hopefully I'm able to do so this time. XD Don't want to overlook or forget about them as I did to the Marigolds, Roses, and other plants I had to help take care of within my household.

It's great to hear that they're growing back now. :) I hope they grow well and withstand the cold for the time being. It should be nice and warm soon I bet.

Our flower pots...are kinda empty at the moment. :P I'm just going to wait for May to sink in so warmer weather is ensured (Toronto is weird..even in April :-/ ). XD

I hope so too. :) Really would like to give another try in growing some flowers...and I will certainly do my best to tend to them this time the best I can.

I also grew a pansy in the past too. Quite nice too and it lasted quite some time too. XD

Aww I love those things. They grow quite well here, even if they're covered with snow and ice.

You should get more. They have beautiful colours.

They really do come in beautiful colours, and I wouldn't mind taking care of another one. XD

Really do want to focus on one plant for now though these pansies are quite nice in addition too. Didn't know about their adaptability to colder temperatures though so that's neat. XD

They really do brighten up areas, don't they? XD Didn't know of all these colour varieties till now. Maybe I'll make an exception for these. XD

They certainly do.

Saw a neighbouring house grow some colourful ones in the garden. Very nice and refreshing after all the snow and plain grass after it melted. XD Roses are also pretty common sights...though I've gotten a bit tired of seeing so many of then. XD Sunflowers are nice though and so are tulips. XD

Darn, wish we had more room to grow plants. XD Though should focus on one for now. :P

Wow, the Ginkgo tree looks so beautiful. Those leaves that protrude out of it - simply wondrous. I'd love to see one of those and to take care of one, wow.

Hope you're able to help that orchid FalconHawk. Orchids are really neat plants, and to save it would be a great thing to do.

Yes... I love their leaves. I love the schefflera's leaves too.

Hope to get another one of those again.

The leaves of the schefflera are beautiful. :wub:

Well, there is a Moth Orchid now at my place, and it's a really beautiful plant. While it might not be my own plant (mother's instead XD), it sure is beautiful to look at. Might snap a picture of it soon. :P

That sounds awesome. XD I'll try and get a pic of the orchid too soon.

Hm..cacti and venus flytraps sound tempting to take care of. :P Though will take some time to find as well as some carefulness if I do get one or the other. XD

Cacti are easy to grow! They don't need much water.

Though, I had a prickly pear that had beautiful flowers. I put it in a pot. It lasted a long time, but it eventually died. Have no idea what happened. DX

Right now, a Hibiscus.

I saw that it was a Rose of Sharon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hibiscus_syriacus

I believe it is H. syriacus. Awesome plants!
