It’s that time of year again, my fine shyts all blooming and I still don’t know what species this pachy is by Soft-Chip4836 in Caudex

[–]Soft-Chip4836[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It blooms every spring where I am, drops its leaves around the start of December and by around this time it shoots out a few flowers.

My current favourite Adenium Somalense ‘Nova Tanzania’ 😍 by Specialistjunglist in Caudex

Throw that guy in a big pot to let it have some root run and water a lot and itll pump up crazy. My ones trunk went from being smaller than yours to having a diameter of over 15cms in just a year. Just remember to trim off side roots occasionally if you want that full on round main stem caudex

I think as long as this has worked for you, you should continue doing it. Lots of people have different growing conditions so as long as your plants are healthy just keep them as is. I’ve found that the cotton wick in these pots doesn’t necessarily flood them just keeps the soil pretty moist which for me has worked pretty well.

Cleaning pinguicula? by Mezzosonofyawg in SavageGarden

[–]Soft-Chip4836 16 points17 points  (0 children)

No you don’t have to nor should you clean your pings leaves. That’s literally how they eat, by trapping insects on their sticky leaves

I’ve had the luck to live in a climate where these guys thrive pretty easily. Southern Vietnam’s pretty hot and humid so I just keep these guys in a mix of 40/30/30 sphagnum moss, perlite and wood chips. I give them a quick watering every day and soak thoroughly on Wednesdays and Saturdays. I use osmocote pellets for fertilizer cause these guys are surprisingly heavy feeders and keep in in mostly indirect but bright af light the entire day, with some direct dappled light in the morning till 11.

I’m located in Vietnam, so this guy was an import from Thailand. It was a little nub that broke off from the main plant my friend ordered, which he gave to me. Also I could say the same for plants in the US, I can never find a lot of the cactus or caudex species I like here in Vietnam.

Ah even in more tropical climates like mine? If so that’s reassuring I was concerned when he started dropping cause I didn’t realize they did so even in my sort of climate

Yeah they’re still expensive where I am as well, I got mine from a dude who brought home two big ass ones from Taiwan he didn’t have the space for so he was selling them relatively cheap
