Seeking some cuttings of Devil's Ivy and Variegated Cast Iron Plant
Comments (9)Thank you so much mari_t232 for your kind offer to go hunting for some cuttings (lol) for me. A neighbor just last week gave me his big old pot of arrowheads, they were in bad shape you know all leggy and scraggly and mostly dried out. After I cleaned it up, I asked him would he like the old plant back and I'll just keep some of the cuttings he said no way he didn't like the way it grew and for me to keep it. So I have been enjoying watching my new plant grow. Russ1023 sent me a variety of Pothos and Philodendron cuttings and they are all doing beautifully. Your living in Florida those arrowheads must grow like weeds in I guess your garden? There is one other cutting I'm looking for that would be PASSION VINE. Before I had to give my old one away it flowered all through the winter here in a south facing window, no fruits just beautiful flowers. Marina at this time I have ran out of flower pots and I an using just about anything that I can turn into a flower pot ( jars, cups, decorative cans, plastic drinking cups, baby shoes for succulents he also gave me some Sempervivum hens and chicks). I was looking for a variegated cast iron plant cutting, then a family member was coming from visiting family in Georgia he brought be a small clump of it, and boy was I surprised and over joyed not so much overjoyed by the plant but the thoughtfulness of the gift. Much like I'm thankful and overjoyed by the thoughtfulness of your kind offer. I'm happy to meet you Marina. Terri...See MoreWhat's wrong with my Devils tongue cactus (Ferocactus latispinus)

Comments (4)Lumens is for the spectra humans can see, not the ones plants can use, so it's a poor way to measure light for plants. If you like the technical side, you can research PAR instead. It's not really proportional to lumens. Monstera deliciosa like full sun indoors, even though most internet sites say "bright indirect sunlight" (they say that for all plants). If you want it to thrive, try to at least give it a few hours a day of direct sun on the leaves. If you put it off to the side of window, you'll see it streeeetch its way over to the light. "Bright indirect" will keep it alive and growing, but it will take longer before it gets its leaf fenestrations or that huge-leaf size we all want. Epipremnum aureum is similar, but perhaps not quite as bright....See Morefiona_phan
