I imagine
that would be the true meaning of the term, “Locking lips”!
That would also be the meaning of sheer stupidity…..on both parts!
I never could or will understand this sick and disgusting obsession with body piercings.
Piercing ones eyebrow, tongue, nose, lip and other unmentionable places! People that are in desperate need of some serious psychiatric help!
Ah well, back to the subject at hand here. I just brought in all my
Ficus for the winter months two days ago. When the night temperatures get below 50 that is my signal to bring them in. I use the highest lumen CPF’s that I can and place the trees as close to the light source that I can. The only fluorescent strip lighting that I use is for my humongous
retusa epiphytic project as the strip lighting is the only one that will cover its area and size. My
salicifolia is about the only tree that throws a “wobbler”, as Prowler would say! In about a month or so it will lose all of its leaves. This would more than likely throw one into a panic but I’ve had it for years now and I know how it reacts. As long as the branches remain supple and the small leaf buds have a tinge of green I know it’s OK and will survive until the next summer. That combined with humidity trays and my occasional steaming hot shower treatment seems to do the trick quite nicely. No….I don’t place them under steaming hot water! If you wish an explanation of it I’ll give it to you.
