EPTI've wanted to get Lily of the Valley for the longest time, but I'm not sure my climate can support them.

Not only do the eat pesky bugs but they look hardcore while they do it. I like how they show how brutal nature really is. A Venus Flytrap would probably be my first choice. I longed for carnivorous plants since I was a kid. They are so fascinating. My father also plants some cacti and succulents. I like to imagine that I am a one hundred times smaller and that I climb onto the plants and see all the details like insect could see. | ||

 I used to have 2 little cactus on my shelf, but on a windy day my window killed one of them by chopping its body from the roots  Now only one is left, once I found out how its called, i'll post a pic | ||

If so I fail to understand how this thread is protesting ... I mean I get that flowers are peacefull and guns are not but , why precisely a plant thread. Anyways for the plant , I have always adored bonzai trees and I want copious amounts of them. Also there is a blood read maple looking tree that just looks fantastic :p | ||

So far I'm pretty sure about three plants that I want to buy in the near future. I don't know the name of the first plant, but it's a pretty regular plant. I just adore how the leaves are light yet the wood is so sturdy. ![[image loading]](http://www.de-co-sign.de/Kunstpflanzen%20DW/Kunstpflanzen%20Bilder/Kunstpflanzen%20Fikus.jpg) Lemon tree in a pot - Someone online said you could grow one indoors. I'd love to give it a try: ![[image loading]](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_aI1pWh3nDe0/SHZF6_YOxOI/AAAAAAAAA_U/98RKX5UzAug/s400/charlie_lemontree.JPG) Bonsai - I could see myself trimming those branches for hours. Maybe after a few years with other plants I'll give it a go ![[image loading]](http://modeblogg.adnic.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/50_bonsai_tree.jpg) | ||

The genus, Lycoris, is native to many parts of Asia. ![[image loading]](http://imgur.com/KlYBv.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://imgur.com/14Qi1.jpg) Those are by far the best looking flowers in this thread. I'll have to keep checking in on this thread for more great ideas. | ||

 Currently have beds of rhubarb, garlic, redishio (might be radishio actually) lettuce, a pepper plant and there are plans for some peas and tomatoes. I also keep plenty of herbs indoors on a mini herb garden thing I have on my kitchen windowsill. Got chives, coriander, basil and rosemary on there at the moment. The kitchen smells awesome. Edit: Flowers to grow for your special someone, especially if you're bored of the rose cliché: http://www.bbc.co.uk/gardening/plants/plant_finder/plant_pages/272.shtml Every female relative I have ADORES this plant. | ||

On topic i have herbs in pots on my kitchen windowsill. So far got Rosemary, Chives, Basil, Sage, Parsley and Bay The most useful thing if your a keen cook, and they only cost me 50p/plant from ASDA, cheap and they last for ages as long as you take care of them. | ||

She says it's the easiest plant to keep alive...she also labels herself as the plant killer because she says every plant she touches will die. But apparently her cactus is happy being watered 1x every other month. | ||
