grantoss Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) Hi all thought I'd like to start a thread sharing my 2 fav non cacti plants! This time of year rocks for these babies, would love to see anyone else's pics that they'd like to share. Peace These lil babies were sprouted in a friends nursery although they are a little close together hopefully they'll do ok! The next one is a P-Vid I had replaced some time ago from SAB, I regret his location but I'm sure he'll get stronger as he grows! Then my jungle of Caapi, there are 3 different species (Cielo, Black and what Torsten called "Brazil Seed" @ the time) that were planted close to one another but they have taken off in every direction except up the palms as planned, can't complain though they really love being where they are and being planted on top of my Daughter (Aya Celestia's) Placenta may have helped them love it too... Only thing is these plants seem to be the fav hang out for a rather Large Carpet Python ( Maybe a Caapi Python lol) that curls up at the base... Will get a pic when he is next at home!!! A dif angle... Enjoy! Edited February 16, 2013 by grantoss 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
planthelper Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) please seperate the densly populated viridis in the 1st pic. you obviously didn't expect such good germination and survival. you don't have to seperate them all (i personaly hate seperating, it's sooo boring and labour intensive). just seperate into, larger clumps, if not totaly seperate. keep 1m space between the clumps, or at least 50cm, the viridis will get quite good size over time. caapis look super, whats that palm with the foot / climb holds, looks like nucifera, but can't be with your location (too cold, or you got super micro climat)...

grantoss Posted February 16, 2013 Actually the palm with the foot holes is an old Cocus (not sure of spelling) Palm that has been cut off just above where the pic shows. The other Palm is the Chinese fan Palm. Oh man... Love the interest but you are right the friend that sprouted them did not expect such good survival or germination. So you feel it would be safe to up root them and separate them. They were transplanted from a tray 2 days ago. I'd love to space them out more but have been worried about tearing the roots that are entangled. That being said... I will not look a gift Horse in the mouth, if you tell me it's safe then I have some boring arduous hours ahead of me. Thank you Kindly Planthelper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Micromegas Posted February 16, 2013 That's beautiful grantoss. Also funny the caapi did not climb the palms. If you grow them up a string to start off they will get onto the palms I think. But they look great the way they are! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
