Cat of the month:
Persephone
The Queen of the Underworld
Well, well, well... it seems we have a new purrsonality around here! A few days ago, we discovered a mysterious little purrrson living under the TopTropicals office. Did a customer leave her behind? Or was she simply drawn to our PeopleCats paradise? Who can say! Either way, since she made her grand entrance from the underground, we decided to name her Persephone, after the Greek goddess and Queen of the Underworld.
Persephone has come a long way - she finally let us pet her, and now she's taken over the office desk! She even drools a little when she gets those precious head scratches. Persephone has officially joined our Nursery Team, adding her charm to Customer Service
Come and see our PeopleCats (including the Queen herself!) in purrrrson at our Garden Center in Ft Myers, Florida!

What fruit smells like roses?
😏 What fruit smells like roses? Rose apple!
🌹 If you liked the Java Plum (Jambolan) from our earlier post, its close relative is even more exciting, because the fruit smells like roses!
🌹 Syzygium jambos - Rose Apple - is a fragrant delight fruit! Also known as Malabar Plum or Pomme Rosa, the Rose Apple produces crisp, juicy fruits with a distinct rose scent, highly prized for jellies and confections.
🌹 This easy-to-grow plant is moderately cold-hardy and can tolerate poor soils.
🌹 Rose Apple trees are versatile – they make attractive, wide-spreading shade trees and can also thrive as compact, bushy fruiting plants in containers. Whether in the ground or a pot, this charming tree brings beauty and fragrance to any space!

Ponytail Palm - The Quirky Plant with a Big Personality!
Beaucarnea recurvata, Ponytail Palm, Elephant-Foot Tree, or Nolina
Ponytail Palm - The Quirky Plant with a Big Personality!
- 🌴 Beaucarnea recurvata, also known as the Ponytail Palm, Elephant-Foot Tree, or Nolina, is the ultimate low-maintenance showstopper!
- 🌴 With its swollen, bottle-like base (for storing water) and long, flowing, ribbon-like leaves, it looks like a palm but behaves like a succulent.
- 🌴 This adorable plant thrives on neglect, tolerating drought and even a bit of frost - making it a carefree plant.
- 🌴 Cute or quirky, it can be grown in a pot as a showy bonsai with a large caudex.
Put ❤️ for cute and 🔥 for quirky!
