Is this a protected cactus? Can I cut this off my chain link fence?

Where do I find this info so I can study even what this is?

I think I know it’s not teddy bear cholla. But we aren’t native to Arizona so we don’t know.

Also, it’s in alley way? Growing into and through our chain link fence. Is it ok to cut it back off our fence? We have 3 of them that grow in the alley way.

Hmm maybe I need to post this in Arizonas sub.

So really moving now. The first is Wednesday! 🤗😂

In all the busy work, I think, not realizing they’d bloom this quick again, and being busy packing and whatnots….i think I’ve made a few buds blast.

My ? Is, is the peduncle ok? Or did it die too?! Or will it still try to bloom again even though it blasted these 2? (Hoya Carnosa)

The love of plumeria comes from my daughter. Shes the pro (not really she’s just grown in Texas for a long time now.)

I’m in Arizona. I gave up growing at our location because it’s God awful hot but then in winter we actually freeze. Hard freezes.

It’s hard growing them here. Shade cloth, moving around all the time. Water. I gave up.

Well. During Covid plumeria society did a seed give away. Just send a self addressed and stamped return envelope - I did. I got a ton of seeds lol. These seeds are old. Most I just recently sent to my daughter. I kept 2. 1 didn’t start and here’s the other!! 🙌🏼🥺 It wasn’t supposed to sprout lmao!!

I can’t say I’m not currently growing anymore lmao!! 🤣 Clearly, I’m growing!!!! Haha!

She held on! I’m shocked and stoked at the same time!! No smell as of yet. (Thankfully happened right before our move!)

I thought I knew what this was. I know what the tag said, clearly I understand that tags get misplaced and stuck in plants that aren’t what the tag says. Now I question. What do I actually have?

Then she shows me this! A peduncle?! I don’t have faith she’ll hold on to it. First bloom in my care if it stays.

This is the 2nd of her kind. I killed the first one by dry rotting it I think. (Followed the shops care.) But I also think I’ve got a mixed bag of something. Is this just 1 plant?! lol.

I know what it was sold as, the sticker is still on the pot. Hoya “Eskimo” is on the label. My first one didn’t look like this. Haha.

I’m still trying to win her heart and figure her out! 💚🪴

Was found on Java escargot roaming the soil.

Just love! ❤️

Any Harmony’s Fireworks begonia pros here?

This is my favorite of all plants. Bout 3 years ago I was the sickest I’ve ever been. I had been sick for months, it was the worst! (Pneumonia, landed me in hospital)

Well, I had a mishap with her. My hair (it’s long) got caught up in her leaves and she toppled to the floor and landed on her head! 😭

This is her 3 years after. All the growth I had in the middle died off and left with nothing in the middle. All she wants to do is throw flowers and the rhizome is just, dinky.

What have I done?

I am a keeper of all things Rex. I do have 1 cane. I’ve been caring for begonias since I was 8. I have the family heirloom beefsteak. I know begonia. I don’t know this problem.

Maybe just a re-soil? Get things situated in the middle? It’s the only thing I can think of.

I’ve tried restarting more and not been successful with just this 1 in any way. lol. I don’t understand. Lolol

I did a thing! Haha! 🤣 I dont even care what kind! lol She is mine all mine! 🙌🏼

Super funny; I washed her leaves cuz I thought they were all sandy gritty?! 😬🤣 Uhh no, it’s just the texture of leaves! Who knew!?
