How long will it take us to get to 10,000 posts?

[Michelle Stevens]

Thank you, I will pass on your thoughts to her I've used her gold coloured pot before, its one I keep for Christmas-time.

Did you use this pot for Michelle and or Red Glory? Will Hope be moved to another pot after Christmas?

She is in the safest place on that table, well away from draughts and especially safe from an enthusiastic wagging tail

LOL, Barney! Very good to know she is safe in the LL house.

Yes they are the lower leaves which are dropping (2 more today) . How reassuring for me to hear from you that this seems to be normal behaviour at this time of the year, thanks Mistletoe!

As long as your top leaves look good I think you are okay. I have a bundle of dropped summer leaves to collect from my two (Streetie lost her summer leaves a while ago.)

That's just about perfect :14:

:hats:

She will eventually meet Orkie, yes. I've decided to let Tiny Tim stay out in the garden (I must take his photo for you) he seems to be happy outside and also, I cant bare to think of any creepy crawlies he might bring into the house with him ... he lives quite happily being left to the outside weather without any interference from me, its more natural for him I suppose.

It's good they will meet someday. Nice to know Tiny Tim is adjusting to his new environment. Good idea to leave him outdoor so he doesn't bring in unwanted pest to your other plants. I kept Streetie quarantined for many weeks even though she was just in the same pot. One never knows what could be living on her.

I wonder if there are any youtube tutorials on how to prune them?

I can't see myself being as "harsh" in pruning as these guys but it's good for the plant.

Have PV and Lumina not made any improvement?

They make small steps forward and backwards over these past three, nearly four months since they became critical. Lumina is losing a leaf the concerns me. She has a tiny new one but it's very slow to grow. PV has limp green leaves but earlier this week I noticed what I think is a new root growth. Both plants only have one functional root at this time and both need to grow roots to survive. I'll care for them until the end. As bad as they may seem I'm glad they are alive and survived the initial August trauma.

:talk:

:coffeelaugh:

Those flipping gremlins strike again! :15:

They just don't let up. They seem to like seeing you get angry.

Yes, very true.

Of course and quite rightly there has to be a system so that those more at risk get the vaccinations first, so this is how it goes --> people aged 80 and over, care home workers (its been a brutal time for our Care Homes) and NHS workers.

The very first person to be vaccinated was this brave 90 year old lady , Margaret Keenan ...

She will need to have a second injection in two weeks time

What a brave person she is. I read about this too. I hope all goes well and the distribution goes well.

I'm very impressed with your dentists, they've done so well to keep going.

So far so good. I have a March appointment so I hope this pandemic is in recession by then.

Hope?

did I hear you say Hope? --->

... Lol!

LOL!

 

[Michelle Stevens]

I scared them enough to send them into hiding....cowards!

We may need the Enforcer again as it seems they are more eager to strike as Christmas arrives. BTW, does the Enforcer still have her whip?

The worse thing is, when I got my signature back it stank of spam I had to boil wash it to get rid of the stink, I think I've got rid of the stench.

You cant smell anything can you?

Not now. What must have they been doing with it. Just imagine what they did to the image of your Snowdrops a few years ago. That was one of their first hits on us. Filthy gremlins.

Only here on TT

Eagle Chat​

I would laugh my head off if Chat makes an appearance and flops out in the nest (like he used to do) nest year :Clol:

I love your new Eagle Chat image for the Christmas season. :bravo:

I would be so nice to see Chat again. He was a real character.

These photos are fantastic! did you take them Mistletoe? How mighty strong that beak must be to life such heavy twigs, wow!

I'm so glad that Liberty has stayed with Freedom and didn't dump him for someone new

I got them from the Webcam chat as they usually have good shots when the Eagles are there. Many times I don't have the luck with them being on the nest when I'm stopping by.

LOL, you are expecting some drama in Liberty and Freedoms relationship? :floor:

I notices one of the Eagles was interested in the cameras yesterday.

I've been able to get onto Liberty and Freedoms web today ...

Lipstick and Guys camera isn't working yet for me either

You are so lucky. I have been missing them in recent days. Great images 'Lashes! They really are getting this nest ready for this coming season.

Isn't it wonderful to have this to look forward to watching again

Yes, indeed. I have missed them during the Autumn.

 

[Long Lashes]

Did you use this pot for Michelle and or Red Glory? Will Hope be moved to another pot after Christmas?

I did use the pot for Red Glory yes, I hope this isn't a bad omen :shifty:

I have a bundle of dropped summer leaves to collect from my two (Streetie lost her summer leaves a while ago.)

Streetie is incredible considering how she was all alone for most of last year and still survived , she is such a toughie.
I know you helped her along when she was thirsty, she must've been willing for you to return and rescue her and you did!

:Clol: ... I should get myself a T-Shirt with this printed on it ..lol

I kept Streetie quarantined for many weeks even though she was just in the same pot. One never knows what could be living on her.

That was a good thinking Mistletoe she's lucky not to have been invaded by pests.

I can't see myself being as "harsh" in pruning as these guys but it's good for the plant.

That was interesting to watch, it never occurred to me that Poinsettias need pruning, when of course they must do I prune all sorts in the garden and yet I never thought of this. I wouldn't be so brave to chop them right down like the guy on the video, that looked scary.

hey make small steps forward and backwards over these past three, nearly four months since they became critical. Lumina is losing a leaf the concerns me. She has a tiny new one but it's very slow to grow. PV has limp green leaves but earlier this week I noticed what I think is a new root growth.

As bad as they may seem I'm glad they are alive and survived the initial August trauma.

They've done very well to hang on in there it would be wonderful if they can get themselves stronger and carry on. At least and as always you've given them a chance.

What a brave person she is. I read about this too. I hope all goes well and the distribution goes well.

Did I hear that your country is starting a vaccination programme today? ... the future is looking far better than it was 6 months ago.

LOL!

does the Enforcer still have her whip?

She does

...... and she's not afraid to se it

I love your new Eagle Chat image for the Christmas season.

Thanks you Mistletoe

I thought I would decorate this thread for Christmas.

I got them from the Webcam chat as they usually have good shots when the Eagles are there.

They are fab photos, so much better than my screen shots.

LOL, you are expecting some drama in Liberty and Freedoms relationship? :floor:

:Clol: ... sort of yes. Although, I think I might have got them mixed up with Guy and Lipstick .

Is it Lipstick who's been ... er ... married a few times before she got together with Guy?

I notices one of the Eagles was interested in the cameras yesterday.

Oh I do love this image .. I can see now where Soap got her interest in the cameras from.


I've had no sightings today, nothing to see apart from an empty nest.

 

[Long Lashes]

@Frosty Lashes thank you for everything you said. I can see that this forum is filled with good people who care. I really appreciate ur nice comments. Maybe we will work on getting you a nosey emoji LOL!! But I prefer nosey people to people that don’t care at all.

:yw: ...anytime.

(Make that 58 posts til 3600)

Fab! thanks for your help DFF

 

[Long Lashes]

To go!

:lick:
We can do this! ​

 

[Michelle Stevens]

I did use the pot for Red Glory yes, I hope this isn't a bad omen :shifty:

It's just a coincidence. I have my Tippy in Gem's old pot.

Streetie is incredible considering how she was all alone for most of last year and still survived , she is such a toughie.
I know you helped her along when she was thirsty, she must've been willing for you to return and rescue her and you did!

Streetie did tug my heartstrings over those months as she was rarely attended to. I had hoped she store owner would care for her but plants easily forgotten to many. I'm just glad she is doing so well at this time. She'd be surely dead if I didn't nap her on 28 October. :shy: I just look at all the Poinsettias at my grocery store this morning and know so many will be going to the bin in about two weeks. It can be cruel world if you put human emotion in everything.

:Clol: ... I should get myself a T-Shirt with this printed on it ..lol

Indeed and have a photo of Hope on it.

That was a good thinking Mistletoe she's lucky not to have been invaded by pests.

I did the same for Early Rosa when I first found her and she did have those pesky spider mites. I seems to be less guarded on plants from the stores.

That was interesting to watch, it never occurred to me that Poinsettias need pruning, when of course they must do I prune all sorts in the garden and yet I never thought of this. I wouldn't be so brave to chop them right down like the guy on the video, that looked scary.

I guess Poinsettias are shrubs so they do need a good prune or else they get gangly. I found this article from Canada about a massive three year old poinsettia.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/giant-poinsettia-grocery-growing-1.5820066 I do like the idea of putting Christmas lights on one this size.
My Mother's oldest, three year old, is about half this size but will get w good prune next year too.

They've done very well to hang on in there it would be wonderful if they can get themselves stronger and carry on. At least and as always you've given them a chance.

I;m just so lucky they survived the initial trauma back in August. Lumina looks poor currently but alive and PV has some signs of improvement with her mini root appearing so I hope they hang on into 2021. One lives and learns.

Did I hear that your country is starting a vaccination programme today? ... the future is looking far better than it was 6 months ago.

Indeed, there is light at the end of the tunnel. It's just getting through the next few months.

:ex:

She does

...... and she's not afraid to se it

Oh my, she is fierce with that whip. The gremlins don't know what they are in store for.

They are fab photos, so much better than my screen shots.

Get ready, they are expected 8-12" of snow around the nest tomorrow, Wednesday so snowy Eagles to be seen.

I saw them on the nest this morning building again.

Fun to see them again. Watching them build the nest makes one grateful to have hands ... with ten fingers.

:Clol: ... sort of yes. Although, I think I might have got them mixed up with Guy and Lipstick .

Is it Lipstick who's been ... er ... married a few times before she got together with Guy?

That is Liberty we see here that has had other mates. Guy and Lipstick are a new group with little known history. Freedom is the lucky one.

Oh I do love this image .. I can see now where Soap got her interest in the cameras from.

LOL, so true!

I've had no sightings today, nothing to see apart from an empty nest.

I read that on the Lipstick and Guy nest that they have ordered a part to repair the camera and it will be back soon.

Snow is coming tomorrow Liberty and Freedom! :bbbb:

46 to go to reach our latest goal.​

Streetie did tug my heartstrings over those months as she was rarely attended to. I had hoped she store owner would care for her but plants easily forgotten to many. I'm just glad she is doing so well at this time. She'd be surely dead if I didn't nap her on

Lucky for her that she caught your eye .just think of all the people who must've walked past without even noticing. She would be a gonna now if you hadn't intervened. I do think she is special in how she is still managing to change colour even though she's just endured a nasty year of neglect.

I found this article from Canada about a massive three year old poinsettia.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/giant-poinsettia-grocery-growing-1.5820066 I do like the idea of putting Christmas lights on one this size.

Oh my goodness, that plant it huge! I must admit that I did laugh at this line - "Cr y half-dead poinsettia from grocery store"

It does prove though, how we cant tell how healthy the plants are when we buy them, just be looking at them. Which brings me round to my Hope ... she's starting to look different, more spindly. Oh dear :shifty: I think I might move her position tomorrow and try her on a window sill, maybe she wants more daylight and our days are short here at the moment.

My Mother's oldest, three year old, is about half this size but will get w good prune next year too.

Wow! even half that size is still massive. Your Mother is a Poinsettia growing Queen :10:

I;m just so lucky they survived the initial trauma back in August. Lumina looks poor currently but alive and PV has some signs of improvement with her mini root appearing so I hope they hang on into 2021. One lives and learns.

If they've got this far then they must be stronger than they look. We are learning all the time my friend

Indeed, there is light at the end of the tunnel. It's just getting through the next few months.

Are you feeling more positive about next year? I know I am. I'm not getting carried away as I know we have far to go yet, but at long last something is happening. ray:

Oh my, she is fierce with that whip. The gremlins don't know what they are in store for.

If those gremlins have any sense (which I doubt) then they will stay clear of us or else they will face the full force of The Enforcer :rant:

Wonderful photos Mistletoe the nest looks larger to me or it might be that one of my last memories of the nest was it collapsing whilst Soap and Chat clung on

Do you remember the reaction of Freedom (or was it Liberty) when he returned to the demolished nest and he was looking over the side to see where it had gone they were such fun to watch that year.

Watching them build the nest makes one grateful to have hands ... with ten fingers

Yes, our hands come in...handy although as we know, eight fingers look far more elegant and hot

That is Liberty we see here that has had other mates. Guy and Lipstick are a new group with little known history. Freedom is the lucky one.

At least Liberty should now know what she wants in a man, obviously the others were no match for hunky Freedom

Snow is coming tomorrow Liberty and Freedom!

Yes, the nest is full of snow today, I didn't see our eagles, but it looks very Christmassy :14:

Indeed Streetie is special and is surprising me with her colour changes without the darkness treatment I put my other two through. I discovered pesky whiteflies on Streetie yesterday so I'll have to spray her with that insecticidal soap I bought back when I was fighting those mites on Early Rosa. I'm glad I kept Streetie largely quarantined over these past few months.

Oh my goodness, that plant it huge! I must admit that I did laugh at this line - "Cr y half-dead poinsettia from grocery store"

I laughed at that too. Yes, I'm glad this plant was saved and made it famous for her desire to live and grow.

Aww! Are Hope's top leaves okay? My Poinsettias have dropped a good bit of their lower, summer leaves but the top ones are fresh and healthy. You worry me 'Lashes. I hope Hope is okay.

Wow! even half that size is still massive. Your Mother is a Poinsettia growing Queen :10:

She's having the same issues we have with the dropping of summer leaves and spindly looks. Her's haven't had the same colour changes yet.

If they've got this far then they must be stronger than they look. We are learning all the time my friend

Well I have bad news, I think Lumina may be dying. She has two leaves out of four that have turned yellow at the base. I'll keep her monitored and will never give up on her but her time in this world may be coming to an end. The August trauma must have took too much out of her. I would hate to lose another Orchid but I know they will all die someday. I just have to be optimistic.

Are you feeling more positive about next year? I know I am. I'm not getting carried away as I know we have far to go yet, but at long last something is happening. ray:

Yes, I am! With vaccines on the way that is a good step. I hope we have learned from this and are better prepared for this the next time is occurs.

If those gremlins have any sense (which I doubt) then they will stay clear of us or else they will face the full force of The Enforcer :rant:

I love that emoji and it's a good time to use it. This reminds me I need to buy The Enforcer a new pair of gloves for Christmas. The Enforcer needs a good Christmas.

Oh, I remember. I wish I had the video to when that happened as I think someone did capture that moment. :laughing:

Do you remember the reaction of Freedom (or was it Liberty) when he returned to the demolished nest and he was looking over the side to see where it had gone they were such fun to watch that year.

He must have been so frustrated. I do wonder what goes through their minds when these things happen.

Yes, our hands come in...handy although as we know, eight fingers look far more elegant and hot

Pfft, you and your alien fashion.

At least Liberty should now know what she wants in a man, obviously the others were no match for hunky Freedom

Or else they died and she as "stuck" with Freedom. Just imagine if Freedom visits many nests. A soap opera on the Eagles nests.

Yes, the nest is full of snow today, I didn't see our eagles, but it looks very Christmassy :14:

I haven't seen any this morning, just the snow covered nest so far.

Yesterday, before the snowfall a Blue Jay visited.

Our duo also made a final inspection before the snow.

 

[Long Lashes]

Indeed Streetie is special and is surprising me with her colour changes without the darkness treatment I put my other two through.

She is very clever and seems determined to show her worth despite her poor start to life, she is a proud plant

I discovered pesky whiteflies on Streetie yesterday so I'll have to spray her with that insecticidal soap I bought back when I was fighting those mites on Early Rosa. I'm glad I kept Streetie largely quarantined over these past few months.

What a shame, but I guess this isn't surprising and I'm just glad she hasn't got anything worse than this.

Aww! Are Hope's top leaves okay? My Poinsettias have dropped a good bit of their lower, summer leaves but the top ones are fresh and healthy.

I'm currently monitoring her as I've moved her to a window sill, I just hope its not too drafty for her on there, I don't think it is, but we will see. The lack of daylight might be bothering her? it was going dark at 2.15pm today. She hasn't dropped any leaves today thank goodness.

You worry me 'Lashes.

I worry me too

She's having the same issues we have with the dropping of summer leaves and spindly looks. Her's haven't had the same colour changes yet.

I do like hearing about this. Your Mothers (as too your) knowledge of Poinsettias is very helpful to me.

Well I have bad news, I think Lumina may be dying.

Aww I'm so sorry to hear this

I'll keep her monitored and will never give up on her but her time in this world may be coming to an end. The August trauma must have took too much out of her. I would hate to lose another Orchid but I know they will all die someday.

She is lucky in a way that its you who is her owner. Anyone else would probably have just thrown her away by now , wheras you have given her every chance and will not give up even if the inevitable is in sight.

With vaccines on the way that is a good step. I hope we have learned from this and are better prepared for this the next time is occurs.

The vaccines have given me a big lift, I cant put it into words the relief I am feeling right now. Just waiting now for my Parents to hear when they will get the vaccine, hopefully soon as they're both very vulnerable.

I agree with you too about is being more prepared for things like this pandemic and I will always remember the impact of us all being locked-down had on nature, that was wonderous to see.

Have you any idea when you will get the chance to be vaccinated, if you want to be, of course?

This reminds me I need to buy The Enforcer a new pair of gloves for Christmas. The Enforcer needs a good Christmas.

You are such a good friend to The Enforcer :hb: she doesn't deserve your loyalty.

May I suggest that you don't spend too much on those gloves? Its just that she will likely destroy them the first time she wears them ---->

Just imagine if Freedom visits many nests.

He wouldn't do that! ..... or maybe he would

This reminds me of that old saying about sailors (sorry to any sailors out there ) - "A Girl in Every Port " -

A soap opera on the Eagles nests.

I like this idea

I can see a new idea forming for another of your books, all the gossip and goings on in our eagle-world

Yesterday, before the snowfall a Blue Jay visited.

How wonderful to see this. I wonder if he the same Blue-Jay who has always been around? the one who I thought was a blue butterfly when I first saw him dashing about.

Our duo also made a final inspection before the snow.

They really are stunning birds. Look how beautiful and healthy their feathers are :love5: gorgeous photo Mistletoe.

I've just checked their nest and today with all the snow, it looks like an iced Christmas cake. Id have loved to have seen eagle talon prints across the snow

[Michelle Stevens]

She is very clever and seems determined to show her worth despite her poor start to life, she is a proud plant

Indeed she is and I'll do all I can to rid her of her buggy issues which seem minor. I hope to plant her outside at my Mother's home next year during the warms months.

What a shame, but I guess this isn't surprising and I'm just glad she hasn't got anything worse than this.

It took me this long, nearly two months, to find the Whiteflies so it's not effecting her too much. The cooler weather should help in riding her of these pest.

I'm currently monitoring her as I've moved her to a window sill, I just hope its not too drafty for her on there, I don't think it is, but we will see. The lack of daylight might be bothering her? it was going dark at 2.15pm today. She hasn't dropped any leaves today thank goodness.

Good to hear she has stopped dropping leaves. My two (Princess and Duchess) hasn't dropped as many in recent days either. The do like sunlight but also do well in well lit rooms. As long as she is not over-watered and has some root rot issues. My two did give me some nervous days early on before I got the hang of what they like. Please keep me informed. Keep Hope Alive!

I worry me too

I do like hearing about this. Your Mothers (as too your) knowledge of Poinsettias is very helpful to me.

She jealous that my Poinsettias are so colourful as hers are not thus far. Hers are giants as they love the summer sun as they were planted outside. I take a look at them each week to compare notes.

Aww I'm so sorry to hear this

She hasn't improved and I have placed her in her old ceramic pot. If this is her end I think it would be fitting for her to leave this world as I found her. I cans still giver her water in this pot. She still has two green leaves put one has always had a crack at the base of the leave which limits moister flow to the base and the other leaf is a tiny baby leave just visible. If they yellow I know she is a goner. I just don't know why after nearly four months of keeping a stable condition she has gotten worse.

She is lucky in a way that its you who is her owner. Anyone else would probably have just thrown her away by now , wheras you have given her every chance and will not give up even if the inevitable is in sight.

Indeed, I will fight for her until the end. I just regret not changing her media earlier before her root rot set in. A painful lesson learned. Thank you for the kind words. These plants do touch me in a special way.

The vaccines have given me a big lift, I cant put it into words the relief I am feeling right now. Just waiting now for my Parents to hear when they will get the vaccine, hopefully soon as they're both very vulnerable.

I agree with you too about is being more prepared for things like this pandemic and I will always remember the impact of us all being locked-down had on nature, that was wonderous to see.

Have you any idea when you will get the chance to be vaccinated, if you want to be, of course?

Yes indeed, I hope your parents get the vaccine ASAP.

Of course I want a vaccine, I believe in science. I doubt I'll have access to a vaccine until the Spring, May. I have no issue with standing in line while more vulnerable people get it.

Do you have any idea when you think you'll get it my friend? I assume you want it?

You are such a good friend to The Enforcer :hb: she doesn't deserve your loyalty.

May I suggest that you don't spend too much on those gloves? Its just that she will likely destroy them the first time she wears them ---->

Maybe a expandable Christmas outfit is on order for you and The Enforcer? Maybe something like this will lighten her rage.

Do you think it this survives a lash-out she would be happy or even angrier. :15:

 

[Long Lashes]

I hope to plant her outside at my Mother's home next year during the warms months.

Oh that should be interesting. From what you've said, the plants seem to thrive in your Mothers garden. The future is looking bright for our Streetie

It took me this long, nearly two months, to find the Whiteflies so it's not effecting her too much. The cooler weather should help in riding her of these pest.

And now you've got me itching

Good to hear she has stopped dropping leaves.

She has dropped another one this morning, although I think she looks brighter again, a bit spindly but less droopy.

As long as she is not over-watered and has some root rot issues

She was very wet (my fault :fp: ) so I drained her off for a few hours and now I intend to be more cautious with my watering.

Please keep me informed. Keep Hope Alive!

I will keep you updated and I will try with all my might to keep Hope alive

She jealous that my Poinsettias are so colourful as hers are not thus far.

the battle of the Poinsettias ... ... before you know it you will be giving your Mother some tips too.

Hers are giants as they love the summer sun as they were planted outside. I

I would love to have Poinsettias in the garden. I've not seen any planted outside, unfortunately our climate would probably be far too wet for them.

I take a look at them each week to compare notes.

I bet you do :Clol: ... I would do the same. Its good to have someone to compare things with.

She hasn't improved and I have placed her in her old ceramic pot. If this is her end I think it would be fitting for her to leave this world as I found her. I cans still giver her water in this pot. She still has two green leaves put one has always had a crack at the base of the leave which limits moister flow to the base and the other leaf is a tiny baby leave just visible. If they yellow I know she is a goner. I just don't know why after nearly four months of keeping a stable condition she has gotten worse.

Poor thing she doesn't sound in a good way at all. Perhaps the huge effort she gave in trying to recover took too much out of her? Lets hope she proves us both wrong and turns a corner to recover.

Of course I want a vaccine, I believe in science. I doubt I'll have access to a vaccine until the Spring, May. I have no issue with standing in line while more vulnerable people get it.

Its going to take a while isn't it and I'm the same, I am happy to wait my turn and let those more needy go first.

Do you have any idea when you think you'll get it my friend? I assume you want it?

I have no idea when it will be, at a guess I would say maybe next summer? and yes, I do intend to have the vaccination. I'm not thrilled about putting the vaccination medication into my body, but I would rather do that than continue living the way we have this year. Its wonderful that we have so many clever and devoted scientists who've worked so hard to help us try and beat this virus.

Maybe a expandable Christmas outfit is on order for you and The Enforcer? Maybe something like this will lighten her rage.

Well that's very a festive outfit I like it, but as for The Enforcer? .... who knows what she likes? is this outfit very stretchy?

Do you think it this survives a lash-out she would be happy or even angrier.

I dread to think what her reaction would be she's so unpredictable. I would hope she might soften towards you Mistletoe for showing her kindness, but, beware my friend, anything could happen
