YETI BOB:

I've got this Euphorbia that's grown to almost 6 feet tall (just measured it at 55"). I'm not sure what to do with it - it needs not only a bigger pot but, soon, a bigger room! Anyone here familiar with care of these plants?

Yeti, I have a plant that's turning into a tree. Don't know what to do with it.
Avatar 12:30pm
YETI BOB:

@TDK: Is it a euphorbia? Or something else?
Avatar 12:32pm
YETI BOB:

Euphorbs are weird, look like cactus but totally unrelated, and their sap is toxic so i'm a little afraid of this plant, to be honest!
Avatar 12:32pm
TDK60:

Yeti, It's a "money tree" or Pachira aquatica.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:35pm
listener james from westwood:

@YETI BOB You must be doing something right with it for such a huge plant! Not sure if you can cut the top off of those and replant it as with more treelike/stalk-based plants like Dieffenbachia or your viney plants like pothos or Syngonium.
Avatar 12:36pm
TDK60:

Irene, I plan to do nothing, don't like Thanksgiving anyway. (I don't mind family get-togethers just the US holiday.)
Avatar 12:38pm
YETI BOB:

@james: It's in a nice south-facing window so it gets a lot of sun. I could try cutting it but there's that toxic sap so I keep just letting it grow - it's fallen a few times and it's propped up with a stick.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:44pm
Michael 98145:

in our mild climate, euphorbia is an outdoor plant. we always cut it back after it bloomed. but, yes that sticky sap is terrible.
Avatar 12:50pm
TDK60:

..oh ok, maybe I'll have a vegan turkey sandwich and some cranberry sauce!
Avatar 12:50pm
βrian:

You might try an Acer saccharum. The sap is quite appealing.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:51pm
Irene Trudel:

TDK60, I know what you mean. I sort of like the family get-together but it often comes with a lot of baggage. We originally planned to visit friends upstate but decided against it. I'm cooking and we'll just have to figure out how to deal with the leftovers.

Is a a turkey still considered vegan if it has eaten a few grasshoppers in it's time?

So fine to hear Odetta again. Saw her at a small West Virginia folk fest. We shared some whisky. She held the audience in her thrall.

Odetta was a great live presence!

..but who knows? Maybe there's some "out" concerto for prepared out-of-tune autoharp or some such. Somebody check..
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:27pm
Irene Trudel:

I only got to see Odetta once at the Newport Folk Festival near the end of her life but she was really mesmerizing.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:33pm
Brian in UK:

There is a delightful track by Odetta 'Waltzing Me All the Way Home' on Stephin Merritt's The 6ths album Hyacinths & Thistles. A DJ's nightmare to pronounce! He also references Monica & Ken in the thanks column.
Avatar 1:34pm
TDK60:

That fest was in 1976, Irene. The John Henry Festival, run by the late Ed Cabbell. I was in my 20s and wild.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:36pm
Irene Trudel:

That sounds really cool, TDK60! Brian, thanks for the tip! I'll have to look that one up for another day.
Avatar 1:38pm
Stork:

OMG, Brian in the UK I'd forgotten that was Odetta singing that! That really stunned me when I checked the liner notes. The 6ths was a band wholly formed to stymie people's s ability to pronounce the band name or either of their albums (the other one is called Wasps' Nests).

Saw the Dalton doc last week. Very sad film. Junky blues. Left me with a creepy feeling about Tim Hardin and his bad influence on her. She did have a few good companions in her life but she was a slow moving freight train on her path to destruction.
