They do. I planted three 2 years ago and I am already whacking them back to avoid them getting to big. In fact last year I cut back our Noi Na trees and they are already big again and loaded with fruit. Of course this rainy season really spurred their growth along.Quote:

there's a few noi na farms up the road and they seem to prune heavily such that they are maintained at c7 foot max seems the way to go.
Yesterday late afternoon my long time Dell Laptop I use to watch sports shows on the big TV in the pool bar took a shit. It was nearly 9 years old.

Hopped in the truck and headed to the city, stopped at IT city and Jib in the Central mall to compare prices and picked up a descent HP Lappy at JIB. I do not use it for anything except the sports events and YouTube music

This morning early an express shipment rang the bell and my wife's 15 Lotus plants showed up. Guess we are going to do some Lotus pots.

This of course required a trip to the plastic bucket wholesale place. Off on the Wave I go and my wife took her Scoopy I. Now this was interesting as on our way to the place we came around the corner and BIB had one of those road side stops. It was too late to turn around. Like always up here my wife and I never wear our helmets and I left my wallet at home. I thought "Well shit, Happy Friday". We came up to the stop and as luck would have it, one of the BIB is a good friend of ours and has come over to dinner many a time. He smiled and said something to the others and waved us through.

Buckets strapped in and wife with about 20 pails back home we went.

This is a very old Temple near us. I think like 500 years old ( I'd have to check) . It always has people visiting it from all over and many come on the horse buggy ride. I have taken a few horse buggy rides over the years and they are pretty fun.
Well Beer O clock. Winter is gone. Was 19c this am and now at noon its already 30c.
Happy Holidays. :friday:
Tut tut on the helmet and you a biker too
Yeah I know. All the roads around these parts are laid back easy going and not a lot of cars. Almost all scooters as the roads are old and narrow. Same riding my mountain bike, not gonna wear a helmet.Quote:

The easy life.
I am whopped. I'd rather dig holes instead of swapping out Lotus plants. It's too much damn work.....

Day done...... Nice night. Not winter as some of us know winter........:)
Nice, keep it coming, Stumpy!

It would be mostly me bitching about Roosters, and the occasional dog poop complain.
What do you all think?
Outstanding Idea BB. Make sure to include pics of the dog shit shovel. I am just about to grab mine up and make the rounds.Quote:

Beauty Christmas eve day. My daughters got their gifts in the US and they were quite happy. Today wife decided that not only was she going to clean all 9 water pots, but I was going to have to move 4 of them from under the trees. Damn things are heavy to flip up on their side to wash out.

One gone and moved

New location, going to put 3 together

Don't even ask about the black tubs in back. Another wife project that...well...lost interest.
https://i.imgur.com/G6fMPaQ.jpg
Lots of various species she ordered with hybrid flowers and styles.

Tomorrow is NFL Sunday. Holiday off. It will be beer by the pool day. :)
Happy Holidays..
