Over the last couple of years, I have really started enjoying the Aloes. So on a recent trip to
Barton Springs Nursery, I got a little crazy and purchased my first Tree Aloe (
Aloe ferox). Got it planted into a terracotta pot today. Considering that it cannot take a freeze, and that it can grow quite large - this was definitely a wild hair for me. But it is such a prehistoric looking creature - I just couldn't resist.
Also planted a Formosa Red Azalea (
Azalea indica 'Formosa Red') in to the large pot generously provided to me by my mother-in-law. As the plant can grow rather large, I'm hoping that it can be happy in my largest pot.
And I finally transplanted Red Dragon Knoweed (
Persicaria microcephala 'Red Dragon') back into the ground (its been housed in my garage all winter). It wasn't happy in last year's location, so its getting a chance at another spot. I already have one that remained in the ground over the winter. It was, of course, knocked back to its roots by the harsh weather - but I have recently noted that it is sprouting back out.
