Threw them away!
And that is a good thing!I finally got to the rack where I'd thrown some of the ones that weren't doing so well. Many were from long ago and I'd been keeping them limping along. Many of them got...

I have been thinking the same thing, and actually have tossed a lot of plants. What I realized is my really good plants suffer because I have to use so much time on other ones. Every once in a while I...

I did the same, Susan. I kept leaves of the ones that were healthy enough to donate. Then I felt "better" about tossing them. Jon, I have had some make it out of their "sick" purgatory - not as many...

Today I got serious and decided to peel myself back to 50 must have plants. I made a list and that helped it make more sense to me. I plan to put down leaves of others I don't really want to get rid...

Susan I have been considering a similar plan! 'Considering' being the operative word here...or should I just admit procrastination? Anyway...it did me good to hear someone else put forth the same...

To me, one of the reasons we have a hard time is based on the following. Every once in awhile, those ones that we fuss over, have a hard time, take a year or more to blooms etc., turn out to be ones...

Susan, I love rhapsodie Cora. I had it a few years ago and was entranced by its deep purple thumbprints against the white lobes. Its an awesome bloomer. Jon

Jon, I do still have a nice young plant of Cora, can't wait til she blooms. Another idea I had is that I grouped my plants together. All Optimaras in one place, all trailers in one place, an area for...

I had to laugh at how you grouped them, Susan. Let me preface this by saying that the clothes in my closet are organized by type, color, length, etc. So, all sleeveless blouses are together. They...

I think I would go crazy if I had to organize anything. My brain doesn't work that way. I like my piles of stuff here and there....LOL Jon
View ArticleRe: Threw them away!
When they were scattered all over, I couldn't ever figure out what I wanted to do with them. But seeing all the trailers together, for example, its easy to see which ones are actually the best ones....

Its really helping me see all of one type together, I can easily compare them and see which ones are superior. I also put all my variegated ones together and a category of ones I probably won't keep,...

I really need to toss a few, but so many need to bloom first. I just had two plants of Ice Storm bloom and one is single and the other is semidouble. These were from my own plant, which got flattened...

The most difficult ones to loose is the vintage one's....if it's melting, take a leaves before it's to late then "chuck it" in compost! A year ago I was milking things along and finally realized is...

I too have been downsizing again. I've tossed a few baby plants that were malingering as Annabel has described. Also gave away quite a few duplicate babies, ( so much so I'm out ) and a couple of...

Jon, after reading your post I'm hearing Stephen Stills singing "If you can't be with the one you love; love the one your with" LOL Bonnie P.S. I agree with you and I'm trying to downsize too...I've...

I tossed about 15 more the other day. I set aside 15 or 20 to take leaves from and then toss. But, I have no more room - the darn things grow so fast that every time I make more room, it's gone in...
