Aloha and happy Halloween friends! We carved a pineapple this year as well as a few pumpkins. Lots of spooky fun going on here! You'll enjoy carving a pineapple. They seem to have such a personality with their crazy hair! This year I tried to make the pineapple appear joyful with a big toothy grin. If you want to take a peak at instructions, see my October 2013 post.
Best wishes to you all for a safe and happy Halloween! Aloha :)

Aloha All, I'm super happy to share with you that one of our Hawaiian papaya has blossoms...in San Diego! Hopefully these blossoms will produce fruit. I LOVE papayas! This tree was grown from a seed that I saved from a sunrise papaya. I purchased the fruit at a Kauai farmers market. The tree is almost 2 years old and is just over 5 feet high. I've been growing papayas for about five years and this is the first one to flower. I currently have 3 other trees...with any luck they'll flower too :) Papayas are easy to grow from seed. They take at least two weeks to germinate so don't be discouraged if you don't see a sprout right away. Once it sprouts the plant grows very fast. They like full sun to partial shade. I water mine every other day and fertilize twice a month. ![]() Our weather tends to stay warm through November. We'll see if it has time to fruit. Does anyone know how long they take to fruit after flowering? I'll keep you all posted as to how it does here in San Diego. Wish me luck! Aloha! |
