I think he said it was still on an Australian growing schedule because of when he planted it. It hadn't done anything until I stopped watering it, so the dormancy seems to have worked. I know the...

It's still around but I've upgraded the light system to a pair of Sunblaster bulbs. Seems to be doing well; leaf growth is tepid but the roots are growing like nobody's business. It had some root rot...

Where did I say that it was?

We have a compost heap outside, but we don't know if it's sterile enough to use.

Thanks for trying.

So far the temperature has been in the mid to high 20s C with high humidity.

The growing medium is perlite and bark.

It's a new tuber because we found the dried-up remains of the old tuber after the last flowers fell off. It's about the size of a thumb.

Habineria: Where are we going wrong?

Hi all,

My mother is growing an Habaneria medusae from its bulb (a much larger bulb than she started with!) and everything was going well. She got two leaves, and all was well, but about a month...

The leaves are still a bit wrinkled. I need to give it more regular soakings, I think.

If the plant is green but the spike is yellowing, is that an indicator that the stem should be cut or is something wrong with it?

Well, it's been more than a weekend. Better late than never! Sorry the photos stink. Our camera is being serviced so I had to take these with my cell phone.

Some nice roots growing in there!

Of the new set-up, not yet. I'll try to get some on the weekend, though (I'm commuting long-distance to a new job for a while, so my nights are generally very brief).

Could very well be. I thought it might have been an 'e' instead of a 'c', but couldn't quite tell. There's no 'B' in front of Nodosa, but that's easy enough to forget.
