It doesn't do anything to accelerate the growth of the tree. It's just a pot with the holes sealed, the water evaporates pretty fast here -- except during the monsoon season -- water has to be added at least every other day. I posted a few pics in the other thread. There isn't any root-rot, when we re-potted the roots were all good and healthy, nice white tips. I've actually fed the tree since I've had it (about 4 years now) and it's been growing a lot better. It's fairly common for this to be done in tropical climates, most ficus will adapt with no problems at all. My biggest fight is with alge growth, I have been growing the water lettuce in this and another pot to cut down on that. You could do it in your area but in the winter (indoors) you would have to change the water so it didn't become stagnant and brackish, maybe use a small aquarium pump. Bob

Happy Returns . . . kinda didn't return?

Thanks, Andrea and all. I did search old threads again, this time using Google rather than the GardenWeb search. I turned up a couple where folks had had this happen in other varieties, but not Happy Returns. In those cases, it was suggested the problem was a bad tissue cultivation that allowed the plant to "reverse," I guess, to the original? Not sure I'm explaining that well. Here is a picture of the swath:

Long Day - Short Day

I have never seen a list of day-length preferences of plants, but if I were looking for one I'd try the Brooklyn Botanic Garden or maybe good old Arnold Arboretum's library. The day length characteristic is really interesting, though; even if we don't have as much heat and strong sun as other regions, we DO have the same day length as elsewhere at this latitude. Do you think that in plants that are sensitive to day length, the strength of the sun might be a completely different characteristic, or are you saying that you think they're linked? I think some plants just need more sun and heat than we normally get - like my favorite Salvia, S. leucantha, the Mexican bush sage. One more thing - although I don't have much luck with hardy Delphinium (I won't dignify them by calling them perennials) the annual larkspur (which IS a Delphinium) does just fine here. So, I don't think Delphinium's known failure to grow in these parts necessarily has anything to do with day length. It may be the case with some other plants, of course.

We don't know if anyone got booted -- could just be someone trying to create drama.
