Revisiting my Stephanotis Plants
You may recall a blog I posted last August entitled, Stephanotis, the Wedding Plant. I explained my love for this highly fragrant and beautiful flower. Because these plants thrive in my greenhouse, I also showed the process of repotting them into bigger containers. Since then, the vines have gotten even larger and Ryan, my gardener, thought it would be a good idea to repot them once again before onset of the spring planting frenzy. Last August, he used plastic pots, which proved to be a mistake. Because the vines are so tall, being in a light-weight pot, they were easily blown over by wind, during the warm months when they live outdoors. Rummaging in the greenhouse basement, Ryan found four gorgeous, heavy cement urns that I used in my gardens at Turkey Hill. They're a lovely basket-weave pattern and the tipping over problem has definitely been solved.
