It's Alive, It's Alive,
Potinaria ( blc. Toshie Akoie X slc. Final Touch Mendenhall)
Ok it's mostly alive for now. I've had trouble with this one this year. Last year it did fine, this year it started to go down very fast. So I un-potted it cut all the dead roots off, put it in new bark mix with a little charcoal gave it a good misting placed the whole thing in a poly bag placed her in a north window where she won't get direct sun. And let her be.Till some life started to show.. Yesterday I opened the bag to see a new growth on her. So she's alive. Today she is still in the bag, but it's open at the top. to let in a little fresh air. I plan to keep her in the mini. greenhouse for another few weeks then bring her out to join her sister Pot. Marlene Lunquist 'Orange Delight' in a shadier spot . Marlene is doing just fine putting out new growth and may bloom for me next year..



So here are a few pic. of Toshie and how she's doing today..
