Can you add Maui ixora? Not sure if it comes under a different name. Thank you.
General Gardening » Unsure of accuracy
I need just a bit more clarification on this. If I remember correctly the Baby Blue Eyes flowers in the spring and summer. If I plant this will it flower now? Do the rules change due to climate and conditions or what is written in the Plant Care section true always. I guess what I am asking truly is there is no sense in my planting the Baby Blue Eyes now if it won't flower until Spring and I want flowers now, correct? But if i am looking ahead to the Spring then it is a good suggestion, correct? Also what have you found on the Mexican Heather?
Ask the Plant Doctor » Mum blossoms shriveling/caladium
I may already know the answer to this question but I'll ask an expert first. I live in Central Florida and I bought mums for my "fall scene". They aren't doing very well. The leaves and stems look firm and green but the blossoms are dying off. We haven't had many days of temps below 85 since I got them. Could the heat be an issue? Also my caladium looks like something is eating at the leaves. Any known pests and how to get rid of them? Thank you!

I see others have questioned the accuracy of the recommended plants on here too. I a feel a bit confused because there are some plants that I have looked at in my recommendations and when I read the descriptions they don't look like they will work. For instance, I looked at Baby Blue Eyes as an annual and it said it does not work in hot and humid conditions. I live in Central Florida. That's the description of the weather here! On the flip side Mexican Heather seems to grow very well here. Almost everyone on my street has a plant some place in their yard and yet when I searched for it in my recommendations Easy Bloom said it was not a match. Is there something I am missing here?
