COLD DARK ROOM

I would love a bonsai

 

[Pearly]

it's not a jade, we have a couple of them , I think it's boxwood?

Really?! On the picture looked like Jade plant! Boxwood even better! I had a hedge of it grow in my garden. You do nothing to it but trim now and then. Of course the potted one will need water/some fertilizer, light and new soil/pot now and then. Yours is very pretty

 

[Pearly]

No! John, I looked at your bonsai pic again, that's not boxwood!

Lovely idea, also a little limiting at the same time.

Yeah, but we all had a patron Saint

The leaves look like those of a money tree - aka small leaf jade
or a succulent bonsai also called Elephant Bush (native to S Africa)

Damn! Autocorrect! Hate this thing! And sometimes love it too. It's not a NAMED DAY, it's a NAME DAY. John's is on 6/24 (feast of st John), people in Poland used to name their kids with only those "calendar names"

Our friends from Hungry just told us about name day! I thought it was pretty cool!

Night, Lyn!!!
We've had Christmas Egg, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day and now it is Christmas Adam.
The fifth day of Christmas!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Night, John!
Look forward to not seeing you, too.

Right, quite.
I read your rattlesnake thread.
Don't get them here of course, or anywhere else I've lived, though I've spent a lot of time with snakes, lived in the rain forests of Thailand, where there are quite a few and quite like them. They're fine if you treat them correctly.
We have quite a few venomous snakes here in Morocco, but only about four deaths a year.
I love snakes, unfortunately, the whole population here hates them.

Most folks here hate them too, but I'm working on that. One guy told my sister that he used to hate snakes and kill them and now he moves them off roads and stops other people from killing them. My sis just rolled her eyes and said, "Yeah, she has that effect on people."

Morning everyone!!! Happy Christmas Eve! Or as I like to say "happy my birthday eve"

Hey! We're almost twins! I was born Christmas Eve. When I was a kid, people would ask me when my birthday was and I'd say, "I don't have one,' because it was all just part of the whole holiday thing. You probably had the same thing!
