Hi everyone. I wanted to post pictures of some of the gorgeous plants Growhappy/Shanika sent me. I don't know if ya'll saw her Newbies Delurk post, but she was kind enough to send about a zillion cuttings to a new gardener (me). :o) I've taken pictures of many of them. Couldn't post pictures of all of them, because my mom came over when I was repotting and spotted a few that she had to have. I think it''s really amazing how friendly people are here at DG!! I joined out of curiosity and can't stay away because of all the great people... like Shanika. It's a really nice thing to find a new circle of friends here. Hopefully, once my plants have been growing long enough, I can do the same thing for another newbie. :o)
Here's the first picture. I was especially excited about the two episcias... my first episcias. Trying very hard to keep them alive in my desert climate. I even went out and bought a humidifier. LOL Please don't pay any attention to the begonia stem in the background. I traded with Lin and she sent me a gorgeous begonia which my kitties promptly knocked over and played with. We're hoping to revive it. :o)

P.S. Happy belated birthday Shanika!!
