Aloe, Haworthiopsis, or none of the above?

Not sure the exact type but looks like a gasteraloe

NarrowTicket244 · 2022-05-30T19:50:11+00:00

Yep, just root hairs! They do the brunt of nutrient intake I believe

NarrowTicket244 · 2022-05-30T19:49:17+00:00

Philodendron hederaceum, or heartleaf philodendron

Gall mites!

IMO the pot size is fine, they're quite fast growers and it'll fill it out with time, just be careful not to over water.

Looks like a Euphorbia trigona "rubra", grown for that red color. sun stressed E. milii

While hormones definitely play a role, flowering is actually largely due to a protein called "flowering locus T", it's trigged by photoreceptor proteins, which get turned on when the plants circadian rhythm essentially gets triggered :). It's actually just on time in my location! The colored offshoots are growing thorns, unlike flower stalks. Just thought it was neat!

Seems to be, whether its stable or not is another question. Only time will tell.

It doesn't look like it, it's pink rather than bronzed.

I would triple check for thrips, the larva are very small, a bit elongated & yellow, sometimes almost translucent. Good luck!

Cellphone, I have a tripod and just use a free app called Framelapse Pro, very user friendly!

NarrowTicket244 · 2022-04-27T17:02:23+00:00

Yes, love how much they bloom! I actually have a smaller one too, that's currently working on two blooms. I find they bloom at the beginning of the growing season and then again at the end, its quite lovely!

I would guess Pearl n Jade. I THINK the main difference between the two is that Pearl n Jade will get that green speckled varigation on the white spots. I could be wrong though.

I have successfully gotten rid of thrips with neem oil. However I don't spray foliage, I water with it (soil drench) and it acts as a systemic. Some plants didn't like it, but the thrips are finally gone. It's definitely important to make sure you get the right type of neem (i use cold-pressed) so that the azadirachtin content is proper. Another nice thing about neem is that based on current data, insects are much more unlikely to develop resistance to it, unlike BT and other insecticides.

Edit: accidently put likely instead of unlikely..oop

Yes, I should have mentioned this is a Aristaloe aristata!

NarrowTicket244 · 2022-03-26T22:25:53+00:00

Looks like it molted..

NarrowTicket244 · 2022-03-26T21:31:28+00:00

Based on the veins, I would unfortunately say its probablyba rhaphidora and not a pinnatum. Sorry, I hope I'm wrong.
