My Two Trees:

Have told property manager of my apartment complex that I intended to grow trees from seeds many times over the past three-and-one-half years. Have even shown her images of Texas Mountain Laurel and she obtained permission from the owner for placement of these trees on the property. Have always had issues cropping up that prevented me from accomplishing this task, and so on. Saturday, the 23rd of December 2017, I got into gear and started the tree project. I have permission to plant two trees which will then become an accent to this property. The trees will not actually be "mine" once they are growing in her soil. I will germinate as many seeds as possible hoping that at least four grow into strong viable seedlings.

Full Luscious Blossoms During March

The image above illustrates the brilliant blue to purple blossoms and the thick dark metallic greens of the foliage. Shade trees are at a premium during the Las Vegas Summer weather. Am hoping to treat this tree as a big flowering plant included with the rest of my xeriscaped flower garden. So far all of my flowering plants have been grown from seeds, cuttings,and offsets. My intention is to grow my two trees from seeds, also. Back in late December 2017, I prepared the seeds below. Potted them and are keeping them moist.
