Re: Curious why this site seems so quiet?

It has been quiet David, and I miss the exchanges too.
About cold damage-- everything in my garden was unscathed except my Tibouchina heteromalla. It will survive but took a big hit.

I haven't checked in with this site in some time, but I see that it seems to have little to no traffic these days.  Kind of sad...  Are people who used to post here now more active on the MGS web site?  It would be nice to see more exchanges on this forum, I miss the exchange of information. 

Nothing much to report from here in Berkeley, where the usual suspects are doing their thing, and the various Aloes, Magnolia soulangeana cultivars, first South African bulbs, etc are all looking prime.  I'm also somewhat surprised to see further continuing cold damage on many succulents here in Alameda and Berkeley, even though it hasn't dipped below freezing again since mid January.  Aeonium canariense, Agave attenuata 'Ray of Light' and Senecio mandraliscae have continued to show further damage as if they are still getting frozen, rather strange...

I've also got a South African Cussonia spicata finally blooming for the first time since being planted out over 20 years ago now, not really beautiful in inflorescence, but definitely interesting:
