The passionvine was beautiful, too bad it didn't make it. I have one that was dug up from outside and brought into the greenhouse as a gift for someone and it died, I thought, and then grew a new leaf. Maybe it was overwatered, but it looks pretty good now. To the point, I love that zig zig thing, can grow orchids, and might have to get one!<BR/><BR/>Frances at Faire GardenFrances,https://www.blogger.com/profile/03616568389165362993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-68080756721206044102008-03-10T00:46:00.000-04:002008-03-10T00:46:00.000-04:00The Ric-Rac Cactus is really unusual.

This was one of my favorite songs. It was actually banned from the radio on some stations as too suggestive.
