thanks dale, i will try that.
My aloc. odoras are green and yellow var. I have never seen white var. odoras. But lets start looking!!!!!!!!!!!! Lets keep Tropical and Variegated ! jerry
heres a pic of what i'm looking for.
this is what i don't want. you can tell the differance in the leaves shape.
Is that at $135 price tag on your photo?
Good Grief...it is!!!! ouch
Where did you get or find the first picture? The second picture is a var. macrorrhizos which i have and are hard to keep alive even in a greenhouse over winter in our zone. Most of mine that do live are very small are they revert back to all green. jerry
TXbigLeaves, I have a macrorrhizos and it will revert to green if I give it fertilizer. Also I have trouble with the plant getting smaller over the winter, but, it always regrows over summer. It doesn't make a bulb (or tuber) like many alocasia. If it gets smaller over winter it takes a long time to recover when it gets warm again. I have almost lost mine a couple of times. It loves water, but for me, it grows just as fast with or without fertilizer.
dale_ a _ gardener, My variegated do the exact same thing. Strange the solid green leaf ones do so much better. I have some with trunks 4 to 5 feet tall wintered in greenhouse. Have some planted ground that keep coming back for over 10 years now. jerry
Here's mine this morning, it is looking good.
I'll say -- it's looking marvelous.
the pic is from the plant files, i D-mailed the person and he said that he forgot how he came across it, but that is was hard to locate. and that he had lost it during the winter. sad.
Placenciarita, Sad is right. Keep trying to find one, maybe somebody has some or knows of someone that does. jerry
dale_ a_ gardener, Jealousy and Envy ! If you Fla. gardeners only knew how hard we TEXAS DUST BOWL gardeners have it. I think my 4in. plant is a gaint, ya'll thank your 4 ft. plant is small and puny! Like I say for my self,Jealousy and Envy on me. If only it was'
