Shrimp Plants

I mentioned earlier about my poor Shrimp Plants and how they’re not doing well. Shrimp Plants are a very cool plant that I first discovered at Jungle Island when it was in Coconut Grove. There, they were huge bushes about five feet tall. Very thick and very full.

At home, I planted four of them along this fence quite a while ago and they’re very puny. I even cut them back to try for new growth and a fuller look but they’re still very puny. Even so, I will persevere because they are so unique.

The long yellow blooms with the white side blooms. Go figure! One day I will  master the art of growing them. In the meantime, I will continue to enjoy my meager version of them.
