I'm getting paid to sing with little kids today. Have I mentioned that before?
I LOVE Blue Phantom Plecos! Such a beautiful pleco!Observing my new Blue Phantom Plecos. Pretty little guys with pale blue polka dots and blue fins. A guy in the local Facebook group imports several species from Central America and has 50 tanks in his basement. He has quite the list of fish.
Wow, you live in a different world. When I got home today it was about 5 degrees F, with six inches of new snow on top of the 2-3 feet already there. Meanwhile, the neighbor kids are out in the street tossing a football around in shorts and sweatshirts.I am trying to grow some seeds from some giant bromeliads near a park. one seed pod has like a hundred seeds in it!
100 percent germination since they were so fresh, but I don't know what I am going to do with hundreds of bromeliads that will grow like 4 feet tall LOL
I also found some jacaranda seed pods and they have sprouted, and I tried a raw macadamia seed and mexican sweet lime seeds.
I just transferred them outdoors, so i really hope they survive.
I'll post photos when i have time!

Well today here in the US Northeast, where the temperature is usually around 40 this time of year during the daytime, it is going up to 64 F . It will feel like spring today. But it wont stick around long as we head back to seasonal temperatures.I came home and opened some windows to air the house out, and I'm pretending it's Spring.
