Cosmic Bubblegum I got as a freebie a few sales ago. It was like a large booger. Growing like a weed. Could be my fastest grower.

How are the maples. Most of mine are leafing out. I just took them outside and start repotting, trimming, and fertilizing

Everything is starting to explode here. These are from last week. Already growing. Missed any aggressive repotting timeline I think

Growing great. I took them out of the refrigerator mid March and they exploded in new growth. They will stay in garden pots and full shade because they loose moisture too quick here. I can bonsai trim and shape them that way. Two of yours are the second and third pictures. The little one couldn’t handle the heat and died.

Bougainvilleas are in full bloom now.

I love the Japanese Maples, but most of them struggle here in the Florida heat. I have to over winter them in a refrigerator and then keep them in full shade or their leaves will wrinkle. Some varieties can handle zone 9b, but those that are for zones below 8 can’t make it here.

Very nice. Just some of mine. Some leaf out faster than others
