I have three small plants grown from tissue culture and all three are as a result slightly different, only one like these "tri colours", one! The other two are nice but not as flashy. One a rather restrained thin red trim on green and the other a broader red trim with a bit more drama. Nice to have these tissue culture sports anyway.<br />They need good strong sunlight light, heat and humidity to stay gorgeous. The best colours come out in the cool dry season I've found, this is when they explode in new growth colour, often looking nothing like the plant one buys. <br />They don't make good house plants unless you turn your living room into a green house, misters, heating etc.<br />Lovely shop thanks for showing!Antonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14041212020431214852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6598416695566325151.post-31373094918150849712017-11-30T11:50:57.012-08:002017-11-30T11:50:57.012-08:00You and Alison...Holy Horticulture, Outlaw!You and Alison...Holy Horticulture, Outlaw!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08843132106213356234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6598416695566325151.post-82410145354999176842017-11-30T11:49:21.545-08:002017-11-30T11:49:21.545-08:00Love the haircut, Alison.Love the haircut, Alison.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08843132106213356234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6598416695566325151.post-18644476455935691042017-11-29T11:39:59.133-08:002017-11-29T11:39:59.133-08:00Thanks for the compliment, Patricia.Thanks for the compliment, Patricia.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16323262555906240701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6598416695566325151.post-73195896416559613502017-11-29T11:39:22.528-08:002017-11-29T11:39:22.528-08:00Thanks, Kris!Thanks, Kris!Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16323262555906240701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6598416695566325151.post-11580034058812536502017-11-28T21:55:51.019-08:002017-11-28T21:55:51.019-08:00Wow, what a great place, and your baked pumpkin sc...Wow, what a great place, and your baked pumpkin scheme sounds delicious.
