Some chit chat.
I hope ya’ll had a lovely Thanksgiving. I spent mine at home with my son, watching movies and reading and playing games. It’s a five day weekend for me and I’ve been loving it. Even started doing some Christmas decorating. Today is sunny and 70s so I hope to get started on the front of the house while it’s beautiful out. The decorations always look a bit odd to me without snow but I’ll take the warmer climate here any day! LOL
I thought it was time to update you on my green friends. Here’s the seed ball on one of my Sega Palms. You can’t really tell it’s size but it’s big. About two feet around.
Here’s a closer look. You can see the bright orange seeds.
A closer look again. The ball looks almost prehistoric. And when you touch the feathery looking fronds, they are so soft.
As they continue to grow the fronds will open and reveal hundreds of the orange seeds. I hope to have better luck when harvesting them. Last year I did it wrong and didn’t get many to grow. I’ll share the process once I get started, probably late in January.
And here’s Flora. Such a trooper. Still growing even though some temps have dipped down to almost freezing. As long as no ice stays on her leaves, she’ll keep growing. I wish you could see her. You’d appreciate how huge and beautiful she is. To give you an idea, this is only a corner of my house behind her. There’s a cobblestone walkway behind her but she’s gotten so big you can’t find it now. LOL
You can make out the banana trees and they go way above the rooftop and the elephant ears you see behind her have leaves about three feet in size.
The Farmer’s Almanac says we are going to have super cold temps late in the winter. I’m hoping they’re wrong!
Have a fabulous Sunday and brand new week!
