I give up!

Keaau, HI(Zone 11)

On 'Snowbank;' Just has leaves and flowers...doesn't grow and doesn't get better.....SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooo

I have two plants which I am looking to cut up...so will have two straight trunks below the Y and two straights with the Y's attached of Snowbank.

I am really looking for double pinks, deep oranges...that beauty from Patricia ... Will send roots n'all on the 2 bottom cuts.... This one just doesn't want to "shine' for me.

Well mine made it through the winter but its not looking real good...I have 2 stalks but one is slowly rotting from the top..I chopped it down and hope the scabbing over will stop it..I took a small chunk and planted it on its side in the pot..I can only hope I will get some more stems popping up from it...
And yes Snowbanks is a persnickity brug..Its not my favorite...now give me variegated Jamie and I would be happy..lol...Judy

AH, good. I am not alone!!! This Snowbank first grew beautiful leaves and as the plant matured the leaves got smaller and smaller and smaller!!!

Maybe if I pull them up and throw them in the bush they will thrive!!! Nothing like a bit of abuse to bring out the best in some plants!!!

Mine bloomed a dozen blooms on the first flush, but I was unimpressed. The blooms weren't as pretty as Maya blooms and like you said, the leaves were small and the plant was also. I don't have time to fool with things I have to baby. I hope you find someone who wants to trade with you. I'm sure there are people who can grow this one...I'm just one who can't. LOL!
