by Alex Butova, the Witch of Herbs and Cats
...Despite the seemingly hard shell of Cancers, they are extremely
tender and easily vulnerable... The full Moon can cause Cancer's unexpected whims
and frequent insomnia... But some flowering plants can help them! It is very
important for them to grow the so-called lunar flowers - white or
light yellow, with a delicate aroma and soft leaves... Continue reading >>
Night blooming
jasmine is a tropical garden favorite: the sweetest fragrance at night is
intoxicating! It is one of the most famous and desirable fragrant plants.
Flowers are pale yellow to white, open at night and stay extremely fragrant until
sunrise. Aroma is sweet, pleasant and intoxicating. These flowers are widely
used in India and other countries of South Asia for perfumery, medicinal
applications and in religious ceremonies. Best location will be near driveway,
window or entrance, where the magic fragrance can be appreciated.

New video: Cheena
Jackfruit x Chempedak Natural Hybrid - Jackedak
Jack-edak is a highly recommended variety grown in TopTropicals garden from a seedling of Cheena (Jackfruit x Chempedak) that fruited for us within 3 years from planting. The fruit (20-25" size) is probably the best we ever tasted! It is super sweet, crunchy and has a rich, pleasant, excellent flavor. It has very little latex which makes it easy to handle when cutting up. The tree produces at the very base of the trunk, so you can prune it as short as you want. Our tree survived light frosts as well as 48 hours of 3 ft flooding, with no damage!
Cheena is a natural hybrid between Jackfruit and Chempedak. The tree has an open, low and spreading growth habit and can be maintained at a height and spread of 8 ft with annual pruning. Cheena is a consistent producer. The fruit are up to 25 lbs, long, narrow and uniform in size and shape. The skin is green, with blunt spines that yellow and open slightly upon maturity.
Comes true from seed.

like the Morning Glory and... is not like anything!"
"You want to know what this is? This is my favorite breakfast, lunch and
dinner. For breakfast - sweet, but healthy porridge, for lunch - a wonderful
side dish, and at last this plant makes a wonderful dessert after dinner!"
I didn't expect sweet potatoes to be represented by such a beautiful plant!
So my old good friend introduced me to this supposedly ordinary, but
spectacular and useful edible plant. Yet it is very fast growing and easy! Here is
the story...
