We were chatting about not throwing what we might think is a diceased plant out!

I was going to throw my Rex out shortly after they got the PM last year but I had set them aside and forgot about them. They were kindof tucked in on my shelves with other house plants so they actually got a little water now and then.

After the PM struck, I did the home remedy.. milk and water treatment... it helped and then it looked like it did not, so thats when I plucked all the ruined leaves from them contemplating the big toss out and got old geezers on them!

Well yesterday, much to my amazement, my four rex started sporting new growth! HA!

Well here is one of them!

I love this one, the red leaves are gorgeous! I am wondering now too, what its name is!
