Sansevieria (snake plant) with buds
Comments (18)Thanks for the comments. I will post another pic when the flowers open up. There are ants EVERYWHERE here, so I'm sure they've already started a lottery to see who gets to visit the flowers first. I wonder if it would be necessary to hand-pollinate since it's outside? Aren't those ants good for anything? LOL! Getting a few seeds would be way cool! mrmothernature, these plants are absolutely neglected, small sip of water about once a month while inside, grow so slowly they only get repotted every few years. I admit once they cracked the plastic pot open before I got around to doing it. I'm not a subscriber to the "does better when it's rootbound" thing for any plant, but this plant was given to me that way, repotted very infrequently, and has had no problems. I think I will give one the larger pot and "new dirt" I think they need and leave one alone. Until a few years ago it was all "one plant" so that should be a good experiment to compare the results....See MoreRusty blackhaw viburnum showing signs of stress
Comments (3)Thanks for the replies! It has gotten much worse since I posted last week. All of the leaves are dry and crispy. Is it too late to try to do something? It is still in the 100s here, but looks like a cooling trend will be starting this weekend (lower 90s woohoo!). Would it be a good idea or bad idea to fertilize now? I dont have a suitable place to plant it in the ground right now. I'm currently in a townhouse, and I only have a couple of narrow flowerbeds in the back for planting space. My thought was that I would buy a house in the next two years and raise the tree in a container until then....See MorePicture time....
Comments (29)After the freeze of this winter, here is the orchard: A recovering Moro blood orange. Of all the trees to survive, I was most surprised this one survived. A new, replacement, Rio Red Grapefruit. The second tree to completely die from the freeze. Not doing much except growing roots right now. Should take off next season. Death probably due to partial blow-off of the frost cloth. A recovering Mexican lime. It was only alive around the heat lamps at the base. It has tripled in size so far. A new, replacement Valencia orange tree. This was one of two trees that did not make it through the freeze, probably because one night the frost cloth blew off. Not doing much except growing roots right now. Should take off next season. A recovering variegated pink eureka lemon. As can be seen from my Feb pictures, this also was almost frozen to death and was only alive around the heat lamp at the base. A recovering Washington Navel. This was almost dead from the freeze. It is, unfortunately, a bit wind-whipped from the strange weather we have been having. New to the orchard this year -- couldn't resist . Of course, this summer is turning out to be as strange as the winter. Fortunately, the nearest fire here in Arizona is about 50 miles away. But, the winds have been horrible. So I installed 60% sun screen material around the orchard on the fence to partially block these winds. And the relative humidity has been between 0 and 5% which is also a record. Fortunately, I have drip on my trees.......See MoreBrown Spots (i.e. sesame like) on Sansevieria Cylindrica
Comments (5)Hi Kathi, I also suspected that might be the pest problem and so I sprayed the insecticide on them before. But nothing had changed. Those tiny spots are still there and without any enlargement or any sign of detachment. Anyway, I shall take a picture of it and show you. Thanks....See Moreshana_lee29
