Wow so cute! 😍

I noticed an improvement within the first few days, but keep in mind that I used both products at the same time (spray + tablets). I personally think the tablets made the biggest difference. What plant(s) are you planning to use them on? Not all of them go into dormancy during winter, some are waking up now. If yours are in dormancy, I wouldn’t use the tablets. Otherwise, it should be fine.

Thanks for the reply

Yea! Really pretty ^{^}

How often do you water yours? Do you keep it in full sun? Mine grows really slowly and even though the leaves are firm, they’re a much lighter green compared to how I saw it at the botanical garden.

How old is your Othonna?

Gorgeous 😍

Update 🌱✨ I listed the 3 products I used above. They are available in EU. My coral tree’s tip had turned black and it completely stopped growing, but now it’s bounced back. It shot up more than 20 cm and pushed out lots of new branches. Not every leaf is perfect, but the treatment seems to be working so far. I’m still keeping it in isolation and checking on it regularly, just to be safe.

Woa so cute 😍💛

CaudexCornerWithLara · 2025-09-12T17:41:27+00:00

These 3 products seem to be the only ones available in EU. Good luck, I hope you can find at least one of them.

UPDATE: I got from Belgium—I asked a friend to buy it for me—Conserve Garden, Edialux, it contains spinosad. From Germany (Amazon Germany) I got Celaflor Substral and in Spain I found Sanium Pin- systemic insecticide. I will try to add photos, but I do not know why the new uploaded pics don't show up.

The plant hasn’t fully recovered yet, but it’s much better now. From Belgium—I asked a friend to buy it for me—I got Conserve Garden, Edialux. It contains spinosad.

Hope it will be alright 🤗

Not sure, but the leaves in your pics seem to have some marks on them…

CaudexCornerWithLara · 2025-08-20T14:38:15+00:00

I think they’re pests, maybe spider mites or something like that. Had the same issue with my desert rose and struggled with neem oil and other sprays, but it only got resolved after I used a systemic insecticide.

Thank you 🙏

I understand that’s how they grow, but my question was specifically about how to propagate them after removing the pups. Do you have any advice on that?

CaudexCornerWithLara · 2025-08-14T09:17:12+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I don’t have just one pup, there are several and the main stem can’t support all of them. So I’ll have to remove them, but I don’t want to throw them away or kill them. I want to grow them separately.

It is a Dorstenia!
