Anyone ID this plant? [photo]
Comments (19)tora.. you messin with me .... lol i have a one acre wildflower prairie .... really neat ... [that is a cute term for a part of my yard.. that i dont mow... lol ..] .. everything in it is amazing ... per se ... i also have cultivated beds ... anything in the prairie that gets in the beds .. are weeds ... the original poster posts a pic of a cultivated bed with nice amended soil ... and bulbs ... ergo.. the plant is a weed.... IN THAT bed ... if left to flower.. there will be a couple million more next year ... out in a wildflower patch .. like you have.. its lunch ... another example.. grass .. its a lawn when cared and tended in front of the house... its the worlds most invasive weed.. when it crawls into a garden bed ... the argument is simply semantics .. most everything can be defined two ways at least ... i mean really .. kids.. either the greatest blessing.. or the greatest scourge ... depending on your outlook in life ... anyway .. there is a name that plant forum.. and some of those peeps.. who i have never seen here... are amazing at their knowledge base ... let us know if they name it for you ken...See MoreAnyone have experience with Edelweiss?
Comments (30)I never thought I'd be learning so much about Edelweiss... I forgot it's the floret of leaves that are tinged white, and those are not the actual part of the flowers. I've had my alpine edelweiss for about 2 years (The photo's were taken in their second year of bloom. I believe the second photo is that of fresh blooms, the first being later on in the summer as the plant begins to grey and turn brownish/yellow). Nothing special was done for them when I had planted them. I didn't really have space in my rock garden and didn't care where I put them or if they lived or died.... (I bought them from Reno Depot for a dollar or two) So PaulNS, I did exactly what you had mentioned earlier - I planted them between two slabs of rock or concrete! If you look at the second picture, at the very bottom, you can see the linear concrete border which I tried to edit out. It seems they are doing quite well there (in compacted, ammended with gravel, clayish soil/full sun). I'm surprised to hear that some may have more of a greenish tinge to the head of leaves. I imagine that would look really interesting. I did a search for edelweiss on google and found a picture where they looked somewhat greener and yellow. I wonder if there are different hybrid varieties out there... Here is a link that might be useful:...See MorePlease. lets' see JUST your Jade plant pictures and collections.
Comments (90)Excellent! Glad to hear that Crassula arborescens is a more thirsty variety. I am slowly planning landscaping part of my yard with succulents. Before I relandscape, I am in the process of trying out individual specimens to see what fares best in my climate. Sounds like Crassula arborescens might be a good landscape candidate. jonaskragebaer - I have to say, I know very little about Denmark. During your wet summers, how hot is it there? My (admittedly limited) trials with succulents show that it isn't the wet alone, but the wet+heat that does them in. Seems like succulents most hate the combination of high humidity combined with nighttime temps not dropping below 80 degrees F....See MoreDon't buy plants at big box stores
Comments (27)I have moved 12" and 24" tall Sabals with a fair degree of success. It was explained to me that all sabals will kill off damaged roots all the way to the base of the plant and this is why so many transplants fail. If the plant isn't big enough to hold enough water on its own, it will dry out and die. So to get a transplant to take, you need to keep the soil around the 'bulb' moist, but not wet. The bulb can take a few days of dry weather, but it is better to water at least every other day until you see growth, but only water the soil. Naturally, there isn't much you can do about rain, but the drier you can keep the above-ground bit, the more likely it won't rot before it has had a chance to establish new roots....See More- 5 years ago
