Tropicals & Tender Perennials: Culebra: Kinda cute!, 0 by SherryLike

Hey, you guys are all very nice, thank you so very much!! First, I tried Culebra in the bubbler and she was not a happy camper. I was told to use sand and or perlite and I just did not want to take a chance because I've never used either before - so I dipped her in growing hormone and put her in rockwool wedges in Sam's 22 oz bottles, so, if she rooted that I'd be able to see what's going on. I add superthrive/H202 in the bottom and after the bottom soaks up, I tip it toward the top/rooting end, but not all the way up, hoping the new roots will grow deep. So far, WAY better than I ever expected.

Thanks too re TAW, I'm so excited that she's bloomed. Kyle identified the foliage as TAW on his thread about his blooming, earlier this year, I've forgotten which thread. (I was in error here, he identified Aurea White x New Rothkirch Pink, I think) – I thought I received the seed from Poppysue and I have two plants, both with buds, both self pollinating, but since it's not the right plant, I suppose that will not happen with mine. Kell, the attached bloom is 5 days old and in the GH. If she isn't TAW, I wonder who she is??
