Any other collectors out there?  It's bloomin' season... I've just gotten into them and have roughly 10 or so plants. It's pretty addicting once you get goin'. All but three started as cuttings. The other three were graftings... ~HH.

| Me! I have a bunch of white, a few pinks, a couple yellows in bloom. I have a little one I'm waiting to bloom that is supposedly a tri-color or rainbow. We'll see.

D.White: Greetings. Thanks for the reply. Sounds like you've gotcha a nice 'starter kit' like myself. I've got a multi-colored rainbow one too... I think it's called Nebel's Rainbow. There's a couple websites that have a full list... I think I whacked that one a couple summers ago down in The Keys... Some nighttime covert cutting operations!  I drive around on my bike early mornin' style... <shhhh> Anyways... I'll post pics of the Nebel here when it blooms...~HH.

| where I grew up, those plants grew in to very broad trees, large enough to climb. Stateside, all I see are the scrawny little ones. What a shame. Must be environmental.  | ||

| Cool HH. I got a white in Tahiti gorilla style that is supposed to be non-deciduous(sp) or evergreen. Got it home but didn't make it. Old Basilisk - I remember one in Ft. Lauderdale that was gigantic at leat 30 feet tall. Might still be there?

 They sell cuttings at the airport still too. Some things just never change... I've seen them well over thirty feet tall and probably twenty feet wide... Gnarly lookin' things brah.  You know what I'm screamin'...I beg to differ on your stateside comment. You MUST live in the wrong state. Those pics that I posted are only two - three years old. They'll get much larger in due time... Keep in mind, those biguns from the islands are way old brah. Like 30-50 guy... Like the waves I love. I've seen 'em here way big too brah. Like I said, you must be in the wrong state to grow 'em big... They don't want temps below 40F outside. ~HH.
