Life is "mind over matter". If I d
Greg--
Thanks for thew welcome...BUT--I still live on DG..been there 10 years and consider it
my second family...However--this site is so much more colorful. I still do not know
my way around...just check in now and then. JB and I have a very close cyber friendship.

I will gladly wait until all these AV's settle in. They had not been re-potted for
a long time, and someone suggested I do so. So, I did. No harm--hope it is for the better.
I have been negligent in fertilizing though. Try to keep a bottle of water right on the table
(see pic) with MG AV drops in it.
I am not sure how strong a fertilizer AV's can tolerate? What do YOU use, Greg?
Should I shock them with some kind of "Bloom Booster"??? Too much "N" may not be good.

I AM quite the gardener of many years--but I do not hesitate asking questions when
I need reinforcement of any kind. I like giving advice as well........:o)

Here is my LR and DR during the winter.....all other rooms look similar.
