And you should not bring it into the house. The milk inside the leaves is poison for cats that nibble on the leaves !
The blue color is only artificial. Sprayed on the leaves or something else. In Germany we can buy these plants the whole year along too but especially before Christmas.
That`s what I hope too.....
A tortoise "hotel" ? That sounds funny. I would check that too.Good afternoon/evening all.
Another lovely day in my corner of the world.
Managed to keep Lola out in the sun for a while but just noticed that he has a red mark on his neck while I was soaking him.
He may have caught it in the garden as he tried to barge his way through my hebe shrub or maybe a sting.
I have washed it with saline solution and put some Savlon antiseptic cream on it so will keep an eye on it.
He is lively enough and has eaten well since I've been home but still not feeding himself as he used to.
I have found a tortoise sanctuary called the International Tortoise Association not too far from me - can't believe I haven't heard of them before.
The good thing is they take torts while keepers are on holiday. So I am going to check them out in case I ever need them, but would only use them if there tort hygiene and husbandry is good. Will be paying them a visit.
Hope you have all had a good day and are looking forward to a wonderful weekend!
Welcome back to your comeback !I have no idea how I'm doing this but I've made me comeback
Not the best day to pop into London...
Are you in a hospital, Dan ? I hope the meds will work quick.
These plants must to be kept for several months in dark places ( like Kathys garage ) to get back the red or white leaves.

No in home

Tomorrow we’re getting up very early... to go for shopping and lunch... in Calais, France. The weather is looking good again
Enjoy your trip.Okay. So you got the infusion at a hospital and then drove home ?
It will be absolutely fine up there. There are demonstrations every weekend about something. Sometimes more than one a day. They actually have to book a slot... they’re not allowed spontaneously!
If we were at home we would happily be in London with that going on. You would probably want to avoid visiting Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament, but they’re easily avoided. Everywhere else will be fine.
The film is "cool". I saw it and I loved it.

Yes. It took about 4 hours
I know, it was a joke.
Did you know that I took my family up to visit her once? It was lovely !
We were passing thru on our way to Yosemite National Park so we couldn’t stay and help her with a few chores.
How lucky you are. Nothing like that here (I'm not into snakes and lizards). I would have loved to go hiking off into the sunset, but never got the chance.Morning all I'm up and at em early this morning for one of my herping adventures. I've had a goal to observe a box turtle this year, and morning or after a good rain is the best time to find them. I see people finding them all the time on the forum but sadly I have not seen one here in GA in some time
I hope you had someone go with you???

You are right!! I remember now that I kept it in my sons room during Christmas time and brought it out for the dinner table.
