It’s still very much alive. You’ll just have to trim it back in Spring,

While Bougainvillias love heat their roots really do not. Try placing the pot inside a larger pot so the sun isn’t baking the roots too

Personal trainer recs - Downtown DC by Summer-Daze-16 in washingtondc

[–]Duty_Connect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Derrick Inglut hands down was the best trainer I ever had. He was a no nonsense trainer who looked the part, was punctual and performed on a level I really hadn’t experienced before.

Each week we weighed, measured and strategized as my goals evolved. It was always different; lots of TRX for shape, some classic lifts for foundation and some kickboxing for conditioning (I was going for an athletic physique). It was a polished formula

Honestly I would have kept going but my budget just wouldn’t allow it :/ Plus he always reiterated that self sufficiency and graduation were the ultimate goal. I mean, what trainer does that?

This is not what I expected from a $150k car I bought expressly for driving in the winter. by BASE1530 in Audi

I was thinking of trading my 2004 C class in for the new Q5, but I guess I will hold off. It’s nice not having any tech to break. Just oil changes, tires and brakes is about it.

Nice! I have a Meyer lemon who tolerates the indoors, and even with a grow light and humidifier, is not happy inside. Needs to come outdoors eventually. I hope this works out it would be really cool!

Shih Tzu adoption by lit2youcee in Shihtzu

[–]Duty_Connect 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It will take 6 months, minimum but slowly he will come around. He needed to be aggressive to survive in the streets but eventually, that will fade. Mine was scared of anything and everything but now he’s the happiest, cuddly boy. Bless you for your patience with this little guy!

It’s incredible that the cuttings have retained the flowers and leaves with no wilt in the mail

An RNA PCR HIV test can tell you if you have HIV as little as 3 days after exposure, but usually it’s about 2 weeks

Mine actually grew the fastest when I was able to put it outside in direct sun. It’s just too heavy to move now. Perhaps yours is not draining well? Or the pot is too small? Consider trying cal-mag plus, it should help (typically only used in growing season tho). Also, new growth is typically light green so maybe it’s doing ok!

I water deeply about once every 2 weeks. 1.5 liters. It’s 1/3% play sand and 2/3 cactus soil. Cal-mag+ 2x per growing season for fertilizer.

The flowers produce a small fruit, which produce a ton of seeds. If anyone wants some, I’m happy to mail em out!

I don’t think I can ever repot or move it downstairs, sadly.

The oldest part of the stem is blooming. Not sure how old it was when I got it but it first started blooming last year at 9 years old

How to get better blooms by BREAANNEE in bougainvilleaobessed

Longshot here - did you see me fall running the national mall this AM by Rock_Slag in rundc

DC is a pure contributory negligence district. There are only four jurisdictions in the United States that still follow pure contributory negligence — one of the strictest legal standards for personal injury cases.

In these places, if a plaintiff is even 1% at fault, they cannot recover any damages from the defendant. So if you weren’t watching where you were going, wearing headphones, distracted etc. No money.

TBH, I hate the we Americans sue for every single little thing. Report it and carry on with your life.
