Anyone have air plants?

Hillsboro, OH(Zone 6a)

A lady I work with would really love to have some of these. I had some a couple of years ago and killed them. I am willing to trade something from my garden to get some for her. Thanks a bunch. :)

What is "air plants"?

Hillsboro, OH(Zone 6a)

If I remember right, they are a type of Kalanchoe. They have flat leaves and make babies around the edges. They do not need to be planted in dirt to survive. She does not want the little grassy ones you often see sold in sea shell magnets. LOL Let me do some looking and see if I can find a name.

I found this while looking. http://www.news.ai/ref/airplant.html That is not the one she wants.

I have some, email me! Well, let me post a pic if I can find one, to see if it's what you want- mine has a leaf shaped like an alligator!! Some call it Mother of thousands.

That is funny! Peggy told me it is mother of thousands too. LOL Kalanchoe pinnata looks familiar but I cannot remember when I looked it up. The lady I originally got mine from said you could fasten them to drapes or about anything and they would grow. I will check your trade list and E you. Thanks a bunch PJ!!

LOl - There isn't really anything I am looking for - but thanks. You can have it for postage if you like. It doesn't even needs to go priority, they don't require much moisture or care. Oh - what does that "Brave Heart" malva look like?

Hillsboro, OH(Zone 6a)

I wish I could tell you what Braveheart looks like! LOL Turned out to be zebrina. :(

Azalea is your plant also called Mother Of Thousands?

Jonesboro, GA(Zone 7b)

Yes it is!

I had some seeds for that plant but didn't have any luck with them growing. If you have some extra seeds I would like to try again.

Jonesboro, GA(Zone 7b)

I have never seen seeds as mine has never bloomed, I do have plenty of babies and leaves you may have - email me!
