My daughter Noe got me interested in succulents in early 2016 and ever since we've been on a quest!!! Naturally with so many new plants around, we needed pots to put all of them into. The typical pots you can buy from the big box stores just don't have character that suits these incredibly interesting plants. So we've both been making our own pottery. And now we're branching out into other plants - Aeroids, Orchids and Citrus!!! Check out what our green thumbs have been doing!!!

Nursery Surfing - A Family Waimanalo Farm
Our original plan was to hit Sharon's (for the Heliconias) and Koba's (for the Cannas and the Golf Carts). But being New Year's Eve most of the nurseries were closed. We had made the trip out with La's cousin, and they suggested we visit one of their friend's farm. We did and ended up with some new Heliconia, a couple of taro corms and several tilapia. Talk about hospitality!!!
We fried the fish last night for dinner, but not before I made a few gyotaku - I'm going to finish these and get them back to the farmers - one for the house and one for the Farmer's Market stall. Happy New Year!!!
