| Hi Dichondra,
My emails to you keep bouncing back, so I thought I'd post the info here... So nice of you to say hello! Don't you just love the Master Gardener program :) I'm still offcially in training, but will receive my certification in January. The volunteer hours really do add up quickly because there are so many enjoyable things to do. Good luck with your program there! Regarding the Rainbow Eucalyptus....it has been spoken for, however, there is a seed source. I ordered the seeds from Tradewinds (link below). The seeds are small and germination has a very low percentage. I did start E. citriodora (ahhhh, lemon scented) and some blue gums, too, and they had better germination. Years ago I had some E. citriodoras in large containers and I gave them away, due to lack of space. I actually missed brushing up against their lemony leaves so much that I went on the hunt for the seeds again. They were a bit hard to find, and I eventually got them from England. I have 3 of those now and I love them everyday that I see them. It's funny in that I find myself drawn to tropicals moreso than I want to be...LOL. I have to lug in too much into a tiny laundry room every year. This year I also have some white/orange throat mandevilla, gardenia, and oleander to make room for...uggg! Well, take care and enjoy your Master Gardener program. Fall is here, and so comes other gardening issues and commitments. Good luck with your Eucalyptus seeds if you order them. If I can help you in any way, just drop me an email. In garden spirit, Trish :) http://www.tradewindsfruit.com/order.htm |
