My Black Beauty pot hasn't been cleaned out in about 2 years. After cleaning, I found a ton of corms/ tubers and about 99.9% of them grew. I have a bunch planted already and still some waiting in my prop box. Now I have more ears than I expected to have. I still have another pot the same size (About 24 inches) that needs cleaning out as well but I'll wait another year before I clean out that one, or I'll be swimming in them.
My shrimp bushes are in bloom now and as every year, they provide many blooms. Does anyone else have a shrimp bush? If so, what color? I also just purchased a baby variegated shrimp bush (pic 3) that has white flowers, and Im currently iso a blue flowered one as well as a yellow floweed one. They are so easy to care for, absolutely beautiful, and easily propagated too.
Is this the Tahitian Bridal Veil Tradescantia? Any help would be greatly appreciated! TIA.
This is Jose Buono. He was purchased in January of this year as a starter plant. (In second pic)
This is Jose now. (First pic) He needs a bigger pot today and has managed to make me so happy by putting out such beautiful leaves. Im going to put him on a moss pole today. Usually, I'd have him on some type of support but hes grown so compact on top of my koi tank for the last 3 and a half months that he hasn't even required a support dowel. (Which is my preferred option for starter plants) He's a super fast grower, along with my lemon lime upright, Prince of Orange, and Paraiso Verde. After his "spa day" (bigger pot, support, fertilizer, and fresh soil) He will be living his best life with the larger philos and monsteras outside under the trees canopy of speckled sunlight, warmth, and Florida humidity. He's growing up. 🥹
Does anyone know the name of this plant? Ive propped this plant every year from the mother plant in the 3rd picture. It also gets more light than the first 2 pictures plants. Ive noticed theres little white bits of leaves. Is this from too much light? Sorry about the state of the first picture, I was getting flown away by mosquitoes at the time I took it.
What an overachiever! Two flowers and a leaf!?! Indoors? Thats like giving birth to triplets for a plant. 🤣
I guess this year I'll try to pollinate it and see if I can make seeds. Good job Red, well done! 😁
This is my Pictum Tricolor that I bought as a tiny, baby about 4 months ago. So far its been loving the spring Florida weather, and has grown a separate baby in its pot.
Dont mind my dramatic, thirsty Homalomena Camouflage in the background. 🙄
