{big grin} not to worry Pompom... We are all new at one point or another. I even consider myself to be new in this area. There are so many cacti to become familiar with that I think it a very difficult task. Please be assured ... we are all glad you are here. Everyone has something to contribute. I have very much enjoyed looking at the posts that you have made of your plants.Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ... I know EXACTLY what you mean. In my accident, the first thing that hit the ground was the back of my head and now I have really terrible problems with memory. I have the hardest time remembering some words at times. And now I'm 65 years old and the memory problems are even worse because of that. Please don't feel like an apology is required. Nothing I said was a complaint. Just reminding you that I posted that picture. Please don't have the slightest concern
Other than the picture of my Cactus when it was small that I posted earlier, no. I really have no other suggestions. But Elie has made a post here on this very subject that is very good, with some excellent pictures of the toothpick cactus when they are small. I don't know whether or not you have noticed this yet but Ellie is a very, very great source of information... He knows so much... and is extremely kind in spending his time spreading that information around.
I only posted that info as an explanation about how i got here. You made a positive statement about the property and I just wanted to say "oh, it's not really mine". But I thank you kindly for your expression of sympathy. And yes, it is a very relaxing place to live. In this forum, off of the main page, in Member Topics, I made a post named "Growth Over Time - Wisteria"... see that post, and you'll really see what it's like to have a relaxing place to live. Hanging the hammock under the wisteria... What a nice way to spend an afternoon.
Oh, it's not like I was pointing out some great piece of wisdom like I was a scholar on the subject. I was just sharing a little bit of a different View. I don't pretend to be some great source of wisdom.
Oh EXCELLENT!! Thank you, thank you so much for the language lesson. Those small words, Thank you, Kiitos, are the simplest way to promote Goodwill between people. And now I have another way to say it. I love knowing how to say it in other languages... Thank you again, very much.
But I have allowed myself to stray very far off of the topic of this subject, which was the flowers in my Greenhouse. I don't have anything else to post today on that subject, but stay tuned, come back again sometime and I'll have further posts on the pictures that my cacti have sprouted.
