Adenium is that a desert rose?
Trina,
Hi again! Yes it is... I have one pink one. I never got seeds from it though. I have some seedlings that i grew from seed someone sent me. They seemed to germinate well and they stayed alive all summer despite the poor care I gave them since they were put on a shelf that I tended to neglect, out side the greenhouse.
Hey can you please add these to my want list: (Not that it don't have enough already :)
*Any of the Adeniun Obesom

Hi Theresa
Happy holidays too everyone.......just would like too know if you recieved my wish list?
ok the issue last night was my 15 yo step son Blake, was told to clean his room, he wasn't going anywhere because of the storm...he instead decided to hit me, I am slow to anger but when I get there I have a very bad temper, and I was afraid I would hurt him....so I left...not realizing he had in fact landed his punch and broke my nose. we have only had Blake in our home a little over a year(his mother died 3 years ago), it was a very long and hard fight to get custody of him away from his very abusive grandmother. Since he has been here we have repeatedly tried to get him help, but usually he acts out by stealing things from other people, so our local police were more interested in simply arresting him than helping him.....Ok, because I am on disability and we get a death benefits check for blake, Social security stepped in this morning...he has been moved to a residential treatment facility. also after a year of fighting with the state's attorneys office to get a restraining order against Blakes grandmother (she's 87 and lives in Iowa they didn't feel it was necessary) Social Security got one for us this morning. They are also going to file a lawsuit against the state of Iowa, Iowa DCFS, and the Judge who kept giving Blake back to her, on ours and Blakes behalf. they did however, have to sedate him this morning, he is understandably upset and this morning was confused thinking I was his mother, Kelly. but FINALLY we are getting him the help he's desperately needed since Rob got custody of him.
we knew that DCFS had 218 FOUNDED reports of Shirley (grandma) abusing him...but until this morning we only had partials of those reports, we now have them all...it is a complete miracle that this kid held onto his sanity for as long as he has. And SS was horrified that ANY judge would continually put this child back in her home, instead of sending him to his father
OMG. I hope everything turns out okay. What a nightmare for everyone.
How's your nose. Are you alright?/ I hope Blake gets the help that he needs.
He has had a rough beginnings.
RRM
Teresa, I'd like any or one of each, if available:
Adeniun Obesom "Twister"
Treasure of World"
Dance of Butterfly "
Super Black"
Black Emperor"
Heaven Star"
Datura Double Yellow
Karen, I think you just made my day. I always wanted an adenium, but couldn't afford it. Thanks.
Trina, I wish you the best in your battle to save your step-son. I hope you can rejoin us again.
Nose is sore...probably look like a raccon by tomorrow, but if it gets him the help he needs it's a small price to pay...In this case I KNOW exactly what Blake's been through, his dad had ALMOST given up the fight from exhaustion and lack of results, but I've been where this kid was, and knew if we could get him help it would be ok....so a broken nose is a tiny price to pay if it gets him the help he needs
I'm sticking around...I was just so mad last night...I thought leaving would be best, as I may be tiny, but I am a natural redhead and I KNOW my temper when riled
Hang in there girl, that is the best thing since you have gone this far
a little farther won't make any difference.
I see that now last night though I had to leave at least to cool down...Tbirds disgusting looking now but still in one piece

Teresa, please add echinacea white swan to my list of wants. Thanks.
Trina, I am so impressed with your kindness for your stepson, and so sorry that he broke your nose. I can understand your situation.I went through a similar situation with an abusive, substance abusing brother. Unfortunately, he hasn't gotten help and I haven't seen him in years.
Glad you are back. Gardening may be good therapy for you. Making the world around you more beautiful does lift the spirits.
Trina, I too am impressed with your love & kindness, which is beginning to become rare today. Welcome back! Not only is gardening good for the soul, you will need the social network especially during this stressful time. We'll be here for you. Just keep us posted, as we are concerned.
Trina we are glad to have you back and we are glad you feel you can share your problems with us, for that is what friends are for....Your step son doesnt realize yet how fortunate he is to have some one who cares... I can imagine what losing a Mom at an early age, and an abusive GM could do to you mentally, so stand strong for him...You guys will be in my prayers...
