Plant Horoscope - Gemini
What is your lucky Zodiac plant?
By Alex Butova, the Witch of Herbs and Cats
... Gemini are very fond of plants, especially flowers. They are able to devote their lives to favorite plants, selecting new varieties, planting gardens, parks and arboretums. In addition, the planet-ruler Mercury gives them with business ability - Gemini are excellent flower merchants of any level: from flower growers who sell their plants to everyone, to wholesalers who supply their delicate fragrant goods around the world. In their house, Gemini do not keep too many plants, they have enough of those that grow outside in their nursery and garden. However, among those who nevertheless became piece of the family (exactly this way Gemini perceive their house plants), preference is given to graceful forms, pubescent and curly, like Farfugium, Monstrous epyphyllum, often carved leaves (Monstera) and plants with aroma. All these properties not only improve the physical well-being of Gemini, but also helps save the spiritual and mental balance of their contradictory but all while tender and romantic nature. Gemini don't care about common spices, they love unusual plants and especially those with a sweet scent. Their favorite aroma is rose and similar, like fragrances of Clerodendrums, Jasmines, Gardenias, Plumeria, and Brunfelsia. At critical moments sweet scents awaken them into the life!..

Golden Sugar Apple - Pineapple Annona
In this video we talk about a rare hybrid of Annona - Golden Sugar
Apple. This rare Annona is a species originally brought to us from Costa Rica. We
believe it to be a natural hybrid between A. muricata and A. glabra...
Fast growing, it forms a nice bushy specimen. It has a large, up to 1 lb
fruit, green when unripe, turning dark yellow to orange on ripening. The pulp
is golden to orange when ripe, with a strong Pineapple scent, and resembling
Jackfruit in texture. Flavor is like the custard apple but with pineapple,
papaya, apricot and melon overtones. Note that some people dislike the taste,
others find it good...
The tree tolerates flooding. It is also cold hardy! The plant would be very
interesting for rare fruit collectors as it offers a large, exotic fruit of
unusual color and taste, and appears to be much more hardy and water tolerant
than similar looking but sensitive A. muricata, A. montana and Rollinia.
