I having really bad luck with stuff in pots. Me thinks I will attempt to mount one in a hanging clay watering pot and the other will leave in the plastic and see which one thrives the best for me

The roots on Max tenuifolia look nothing like the ones you guys are used to.

They start off with yellow tips and a beige velamen layer. As they get older, the velamen turns brown. The tips remain yellow. At first glance they look like they're dead, but they're not.
Thanks so much for the tip. Saves us a lot of worry when we get our plants

At least that's what I told my partner.

Looking forward to our group growing!

I tell my hubby that sharing the shipping is the reason for Travelling Companions... but he still thinks it's and excuse to buy more... Oh well, he just smiles indulgently and lets me get them anyway.

I have two, one looks like a division (recent) and could do better on roots, but still has enough, the other is smaller, less blooms, and has a very nice root system. Both have flowers. The smaller one with 3 and the larger one with 7. Although the larger one doesn't have a astonishing root system, it is putting out a lot new growths. I would definitely recommend them!!!
