[QUOTE="Michelle Stevens, post: 350141, member: 11"] Two new orchids ... well they started growing in 2021 so they are just teenagers now refusing to leave home. I wish you luck! I hope #5 is doing better and maybe you found one for #6 before the great Poinsettia purges started on 2 January. :yikey: I had a moment of hot weakness and bought a tiny red Poinsettia on 26 December knowing the purge was just around the corner. I was lucky to do so as when I went in on 2 January they were all gone. The purge is real. Please do. It's a great feeling to save an unwanted plant. Here is an image from my local grocery store of the remaining small poinsettias on 26 December. [CENTER][IMG]https://i.ibb.co/3cRgBNs/poinsettia122622.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] I bought the one on the top right corner near the ball. She looked like the one no one would buy. Sadly now many of the remaining plants may be in a trash bin somewhere. :( [B]Streetie[/B] made it to 2023 and is doing good, better than I was thinking on early December. She now has a tiny friend in this new poinsettia. I'll have to take a photo of them together. I just hope [B]Streetie[/B] can pull through the Winter. With some love and luck she will. When I last saw her on 29 December she as just clinging to life. I'll see her Thursday but I fear for the worst. All in all 2022 wasn't a bad year plant wise for me. All my orchids made it thought the year. Only [B][COLOR=rgb(252, 70, 170)]Pinkie Poinsettia[/COLOR][/B] died. To you too! Happy New Year to you! Yes, hopefully [B]Pippa The Pepper[/B] rewards me with a nice pepper summer. [/QUOTE]
