I've tried growing mangos but once they were a foot high they died, they are prone to disease apparently ...my areas is nothing but bugs and disease

ate a mango

then got a big plate and a small plate, put some water on the big plate, put the mango seed(after drying for 3 days) on the watered plate and covered with the other place and kept it in a warm area. its not the normal type from the store, it was a very tiny variety(forgot the name though)

after it sprouted fiarly well, i planted it, ima move it into a tree pot in a few days (when i go to town) with some new soil so itll have room to stretch its roots.

heya!

i planted some desert wildflower seeds bought them at the kelso depo(little museum kinda thing accross the street) gift shop, package says it contains:

desert bluebells--->

california poppys--->

firepinwheels--->

bladderpod--->

tidy tips--->

fivespots--->

and arroyo lupine--->

im exited :p

Not a great shot but the place I normally keep my poinsettia is behind stuff so I had to find another window to take pics of it.



It's still growing new leaves. It's actually fuller now than it was when I bought it before Thanksgiving last year.

my baby desert wildflowers and the last ones baby Mango :p

I wish I had some plants like this 

i thought you were gona say thats what you were growing lol XD hell for a sec when i checked today, that little star looking plant looked like a pot leaf....was like oh my, i think my seeds got cross-contaminated:p

I had some luck with a few green beauties in younger days, but there is no way I could get away with it where I live now... LOL

Yeah, it was that star shaped leaf in your pic. that reminded me 

lol

they are pretty neat looking plants all other things aside :p

my desert wildflower plants came up very nicely ^.^ and theres one i think of my parsly and chives which look like a rockstars hair, kinda tangly and long and just wild lol

no blooms yet though :p

Plants!  I love plants.  I inherited two of them from my parents.  One requires weekly watering (that's my ivy, also known as the Jesus plant because it revives in 3 hours after being watered if I forget) and then I have this one that's a small garden-thing.  I have no idea what it is, but requires watering once a month and can go up to 4 months without being watered--it was never watered when my dad was deployed because it was in his work office.

Next I'm going to get a Venus Flytrap because of bugs and because they're so cool!

you gota get some pics up if you can, ivys always pretty neat :p

careful witht he flytraps, i hear(and see) that they dont last long, gota find the secret of keeping them alive an tell me cuz they are awsome lol

Definitely!  I know, roughly, how to take care of the bug catching plants--at least how to take care of wild ones.
