I have read numerous books on the subject of gender differences. One of my favorites is Dr. John Gray's "Men Are From Mars and Women Are From Venus." I never ceased to be amazed, and thankfully so, at the inherent traits that are, for lack of another explanation, gender related.

Plateau Gardening reader Sue of Crossville sent an e-mail asking, “What have I done wrong? I got this Christmas cactus years ago. It is a Zygocactus truncates according to my flower book. The plant was growing in a shallow amount of poor looking soil. I changed the pot and dirt in the spring of 2008. It normally blooms in early June but had no flowers that year. Though it has been getting new shoots, it did not bloom in spring-2009 either.”
