Re: Orange jasmine

You know, Jim, orange jasmine is just about my favorite fragrance in the universe. I have a plant, but it is being really slow about leafing out this year. I let it get too dry over the winter. It only has two or three leaves right now, but there are dozens waiting to emerge. I'm sure a little fertilizer would help a lot. The Meyer lemon did wonderfully well over the winter. It bloomed a lot, and now that it's outside it's blooming again. I can see it is setting a lot of fruit. Now if they just won't all ripen at the same time...

The orange jasmine are going through a new bloom cycle for some reason, so I added a couple of pictures to my "spring" album.

Weather here has been... well... odd. Not terribly hot [low 80s] or humid [50s], but overcast and weepy without actually raining. Plants seem to like it; grumichama is blooming for the first time and the Amazon lily is beginning to open [slowly, one flower at a time].
