Last year I went to a craft show up in Black Forrest with Cheryl (side note: Black Forrest just got 24″ of snow over the weekend…eeeeek!). I bought a plant that used to grow out in our yard when we lived in Florida. The tag called it a Piggy Back Plant due to the way it grows babies on the tips of it’s leaves and they drop off and grow roots n stuff.
I had it outside for a few months over the summer then I brought it in and put it back in my window here in my office and forgot about it (it doesn’t need a lot of water so that’s ok lol) A few days ago I decided maybe I should water it and discovered that it had bloomed!
I moved it to a taller window in the dining room… Here are the pics…notice the snow/no snow thing lol…taken on different days

Wow! That’s a beautiful plant. I wonder if it’d grow here in Illinois. Looks like something that would attract some hummingbirds.

I don’t think they would survive the winters outside in Illinois but I’m not really sure? maybe you should Google it and give us a report:p

Well… I found an article that said they have them as houseplants in Alaska, so I think they’d be alright in Illinois. That is…as long as I can remember to bring it inside for the winter. LOL
