pendulus to
flowering size.<<<
May I ask what happens to it before it reaches blooming size?
>>>What is especially disturbing is that they seem to
seriously HATE to be disturbed! In your case I would advise you to take
out the entire clump of soil and plant and do not try to shake off the
old soil and transplnat the whole thing into a larger post with fresh
soil surrounding the old soil.<<<
I transplanted it last night and I'm waiting for any signs ........good or
bad. The leaf had already shown some slight yellowing at the leaflet's edges
even before I transplanted it, but only in their waves along the edges, here
and there. What I don't know, is if this is a sign of going dormant, showing
some kind of stress, or just natural coloring along the edges. It's not what
I call a dying yellow. It's more of a puce green. Maybe it's just coming
into it's full color. The plant was several weeks into it's largest (second)
leaf, in the 2" pot. I am wondering if pendulus is consistant enough to know
when it's expected to go dormant, or will it put out another leaf? If you
have any information on this variety, I would appreciate any known facts,
especially any related to growing it....likes-dislikes.
I wish you ALL the luck with this most
awful to grow amorph, yet one of the most beautiful ones.
Thank you, and it IS very beautiful!
