lblanchardThe last nopalxochia flower has opened. The show will probably be over Monday or Tuesday. Well, it started with wee buds in mid February so I've had a good long run of it.
The last 'exotica' scape has one fully open and nother about to open. It only has two flowers. The 'gervase' seedpod has almost certainly aborted. The stem has gone brown just below the pod, and the rest of it is withering. I have two more seedlings about to open downstairs that that will be that for this year's hippeastrum parade. No class of 2010, but my winter/spring windowsills are crowded enough as it is, so it's probably all for the best.
I found that Facebook has created a privacy enhancement. It may have done so some time ago but I didn't notice it. I can create a friend list and restrict a post to that list or exclude that list. Given that my political views are decidedly not in synch with my "industry" -- academe and nonprofits -- it will be good to be able to snark there and exclude my colleagues, some of whom go so far as to refuse to speak to Republicans.
