Comments (10)Just a thought...what if you were to take it out of the pot and check the roots? See if they're healthy. Then, we'll officially know. Have you looked for any insects that may have infested the plant? I would think you would have said so though. Any powdery look to any of the leaves etc. (might be rusty, black or white)? I'm just trying to throw out more ideas. Seems like when a plant is in such decline you're limited by the clock. If the roots are unhealthy: 1) Cut a section of the stem out. 2) Get a small, sterilized pot (can sterilize by soaking pot w/90% water and 10% bleach for 30 minutes) 3) Put fresh soil mixture in pot (you kinda want something fine, but w/decent drainage - peat is OK in it for now) and mist soil moist throughout 4) Set stem cutting sideways (will root at each node where the soil is touching & will have offsets above the soil) and make sure the soil doesn't dry out, but isn't too wet. 5) Set it in bright light, but not direct. It might take a few weeks, but it will regenerate and you'll have a new plant at each node. When they're big enough you can cut them apart and plant them in the mix w/out peat if you want. Peat, for now, will help concentrate the moisture where it's much-needed. You may also take each of the larger, healthy remaining leaves and set them on top of the soil, wounded side to the soil & they'll also root and create new plants....See MoreCalling those with Verde Peacock/Peacock Green
Comments (13)I have large expanses of countertop and all of mine looks the same. I remember the granite guy saying that they had to be careful picking slabs that were very close to looking the same. The slabs vary in look. My cousin has the same granite as mine, but it looks totally different because the quartz pieces are much larger in her slabs. So my guess is that maybe there wasn't enough attention paid to slab choice by the granite shop. It's always a good idea to tell the shop that when the slabs arrive, you want to approve them before they start making the tops, just to be sure the slabs are close matches....See MoreNeed Peacock/fushia colored fabric!
Comments (9)Hi Marie, I would recommend you check equilter.com. They have an amazing amount of fabric and you might be able to search there for "peacock" and find it. They had all the Hoffman Challenge fabrics with the peacock motif, too. Keepsake Quilting used to provide a search service, so you might also try sending them a photo of the fabric. Hope that helps, Kate Here is a link that might be useful: equilter peacock feathers...See More- 16 years ago
