How Gardening improves your health
Q: Can gardening improve my health?
A: Gardening is not only a fun way to spend time but also an opportunity to bond with family and friends. Get everyone involved in planting flowers, starting a vegetable patch, or even organizing a whimsical Easter egg hunt amidst the blooming garden.

Adenium: a Rose by any Other Name
New
article by Jane Jordan.
"...The famous quote is often used to imply that the names
of things do not affect what they really are, in the case
of The Desert Rose (Adenium obesum) it is not a rose at
all, rather a succulent that thrives in hot, dry and sunny
conditions. These spectacular plants have no relation to
the rose family, they are a species of flowering plant
from the dogbane family, Apocynaceae. The naming of this
plant is partly correct as they originate in sub-Saharan
Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, where they can grow into
large trees with huge swollen trunks..."

🌵 How to grow Dragon Fruit from a cutting - Quick Guide
🐉 Get a healthy cutting
Use a 6-10 inch long stem cutting from a mature dragon fruit plant. Let the cut end dry in the shade for 2-5 days so it forms a callus. This also helps prevent rot and fungus.
🐉 Prepare the soil
Use well-draining soil - well drained potting mix, Adenium mix, or cactus mix is ideal. Dragon fruit hates wet feet!
🐉 Plant the cutting
Stick the callused end about 2-3 inches deep into the soil. Make sure it's planted upright (the way it grew on the parent plant).
🐉 Support it
Add a trellis or post. Dragon fruit is a climbing cactus and needs something to grow on.
🐉 Water lightly
Water once after planting, then wait until the soil dries before watering again. Overwatering can rot the cutting.
🐉 Give it sun and warmth
Place in bright, indirect sunlight while it roots. Once established, it can handle full sun.
🐉 Watch it grow!
Roots usually form in 2-4 weeks. New growth means it's taking off! This is the time to Ferilize it!
