What other things have you got in Semi/hydro?
About 8 years or so ago, I started this Anthurium from seed in Semi-hydro. After a few years of neglect, I finally decided to clean the scaly-bug off the leaves, and flush the semi-hydro. While doing so I found it was putting out a new bloom. Can't wait to see it in bloom again.
Below are pics of it in my bathtub for size reference.

I'm experimenting with somo African violets in semi-hidro, so far they look happy.
And most of my orchids are in hydro culture, inglass pots with just water and they are doing great!

Would be cool if the Violet's did well in hydro, I think I will try it myself also. I'm thinking it would not be necessary to report them so frequently, just a lot of water flushing. |
