Those blossoms are amazing.<br /><br />Fascinating story on the clove - never knew where it came from before.<br /><br />So glad the training is going well.

I bought one several years ago, and it has yet to bloom, but I have hope!Margaret Almonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00922823341489003652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-36266192705741512712011-08-03T04:33:12.982-06:002011-08-03T04:33:12.982-06:00how nice of that Hoya to bloom for you.

They almost look like something from the ocean. Sturdy, yet delicate- delightfully pink and with juicy little centers that look almost good enough to eat. Just. Wow.<br /><br />Also. You will not be swept. Uh-huh. No way. You have worked so hard to get to this point- you will finish strong.<br /><br />Love that last shot, too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-47271679598770526692011-08-02T13:03:07.855-06:002011-08-02T13:03:07.855-06:00Very lovely flowers and a romantic gesture from Li...Very lovely flowers and a romantic gesture from Lizzard :)cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12718141729147255209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-61988649088009619812011-08-02T10:48:11.070-06:002011-08-02T10:48:11.070-06:00Thanks, Neferi and Patty!

Bristlecone pines grow normal at lower elevations, but at treeline, they are short and stunted. Maybe the clove tree will do the same thing!<br /><br />I use cloves in most of my dessert and tea recipes, so I'm hoping at some point, I might be able to harvest my own instead of buying it at the store. The clove tree doesn't produce fruit, though, until it's at least seven years old, from what I hear. So fingers crossed... (for seven whole years!!! but gotta make it through winter first...)Snowcatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06360228352528558176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-127422853581823072011-08-02T09:48:04.464-06:002011-08-02T09:48:04.464-06:00Exotic lighting on those flower shots!

Those seeds look amazing as they are, so I can't imagine how incredible a full grown plant would be.<br /><br />Keep up the good work with your cycling! You're going to do it!Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16745889026665681137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-78328352259784475392011-08-02T06:36:49.814-06:002011-08-02T06:36:49.814-06:00Lovely and romantic? flowers.
