Comments (8)Florida has at least five Lindernia species in the wild. L. ciliate has heavily toothed leaves. L. crustacea usually has a relatively solid bar or splotch across the center of the lower lip. L. monticola and L. dubia are mostly upright species. L. grandiflora seems most like your plant to me....See MoreForce H. Paniculata "Pink Diamond" to leaf out again
Comments (7)The plant is probably going to be in shock from transplanting into your garden and from poor care so I would not try to do anything "special" other than let it recover and produce a good root system. Let it decide where to generate new leaves from (you can use pinching next year so "fill" any areas you want to tweak)). It will leaf out at its own pace. Keep it well mulched and keep the soil as evenly moist as you can thru the Fall. Next Spring, if you see any stems that have not leafed out by the middle or end of May, prune those low to the ground. I would not add slow-release fertilizers either since the pots usually have these round fertilizer pellets but, if you do not see any pellets then I would add 1/2 the recommended amount of whatever chemical fertilizer you have since it is not early in the growing season. A weak fertilizer like liquid seaweed or liquid fish or coffee grounds would be ok but stop by month end or so so they go dormant at the proper time and do not get zapped by early cold weather. It would be ok to amend the soil if you need to acidify the soil. In Spring 2016, you can give them organic compost, composted manure, cottonseed meal or a chemical fertilizer with a 10-10-10 NPK Ratio (or something close to that). One application will usually suffice for the whole growing season....See MoreSucculent Leaf "Windows"
Comments (18)Howard - How is your 'Hooh' looking now? Mine was more yellow/orange when I first got it, so I'm not sure if I should try to give it more light or not. Love all the different Haworthia you've posted! I really need to get myself a maughanii, they are so interesting. Can see your 'The Last Emperor' is growing in some stripes on the windows. Apparently, hairy leaves (like on your 'Shirayuki-emaki') are there to reduce air movement and decrease transpiration. Aztcqn - I haven't grown haws in community pots before, only clumps of the same species in the same pot. Don't think there should be any issue? If you are going for the 'ideal' look or colouration, it may be little tricky because some Haworthia need more light than others for that. Of course, you could just turn it a certain way or put it in a place that has more light on part of the pot and work it that way. Watering needs is fairly uniform, but I still would try to group similar Haworthia in a pot. Combining something like an attenuata/coarctata with a cymbiformis may not be ideal. Here's another one with interesting windows: Haworthia 'Matrix' Quite difficult to photograph, but the pattern is prominent in person....See Moregrowing succulents from leaf propogation..
Comments (56)howdy joy! Nice to see you over this way lol I took a fallen leaf a few weeks back..I felt so darn guilty about it...It didnt live either..so I guess that was my karma..I wont do it again..I still ..weeks later..feel really super guilty! i'll say the gritty mix that is mentioned a lot here was a godsend! I have all of my succulents in that gritty mix. I do have a few that need way more water. But I just couldnt keep them alive in soil. Right now I only have leaf propagating in a small layer of soil. Now I know you are an AV grower so I'll say ..I dislike av soil alone..I think its worse than just regular potting soil. You water it and it just compacts. I just recently changed two leaves that I'm trying to grow from just plan av soil into my av/perlite mix. I could be wrong but I think folks here steer away from peat...See MoreRoger
