Dimmer, such a dainty bloom. Very pretty. I see another addiction heading my way. I think I'm gonna try Streps too, beside the AVs and the three Epicia I rescued from Wallyworld. ^_^
Here's one of the Epicias.

Here's another one. They are very spindly from sitting in the dark.

I think that you have a stolen (SP) on it and if right you cut that and get more plant but other will tell you if I am wrong that is a nice looking plant Good save^_^

Yes, Dimmer. There is a little stolen, but I'm not sure if I should cut it (and how much to cut) and then just stick it back in pot or pot in a smaller pot by itself. I'm going to search the old posts and hope there's an answer.

I wouldn't cut on the main stem until you can leave several nodes below the cut. If you actually have stolons then all you do is cut about a 3/4" below the node and just stick in soil less mix in a zip lock bag until they root. (even jars are great for starting episicas)


****edited to say 'hello' and hope everyone is happy with their new plants

That bloom is beautiful Dimmer!

Gail- What is that Episcia in front left with the lush large leaves with netting on them?
Love it!

I wish I could tell you but I don't know. Usually the big leaved ones are coming from either Thadd Scaggs or Jim whatever his name is.

Reminds me of my Checkerboard.

That one is pretty too Sally
I had one called Pink Gator that had netting on it but the leaves weren't that big...or maybe i didn't take care of it right to get big leaves. But it was pretty anyway with pink netting.

Gessie and Sally, pretty Epicia you have. Makes me want to go and get more. ^_^

Last year I had so many of them, got tired of them...........got rid of the whole table of them and here I am growing them again! A female's privilege to change her mind......right!
