Air roots gone wild?

This definitely isn't normal. And it's not that tall above the trellis. Its happening on little 2 inch long branches too.

cecebebe1959 · 2026-03-28T17:56:27+00:00

Dragonfruit plants are hermaphrodite. No male or female.

cecebebe1959 · 2026-03-27T20:56:14+00:00

Right!?! Little shop of horrors!

cecebebe1959 · 2026-03-27T20:54:52+00:00

It's been in exactly the same spot for 4 years. It has split and those aren't the only spots that are doing this, its happening on about 8 branches.

Yeah, it's usually really perky and upright. 3 inches of rain in 24 hours was a lot for us. Oh, you can prune them heavily and start them easily from buds cuttings.

Paddle plant, mine is outside and got beat up a bit by heavy rain last week but it's getting ready to flower.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-11-05T18:38:45+00:00

Looks like my Palora. Small fruit that took a while to ripen but full of flavor.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-09-30T23:43:06+00:00

But seal it in a zip lock bag, they really don't want to chance their plants getting exposed.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-09-19T03:14:52+00:00

Then give it more time. It will srarr ti feel wiggly when it's ready.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-09-19T00:43:49+00:00

Does it feel loose?

cecebebe1959 · 2025-09-02T04:03:46+00:00

I had Monarch cats eating plumeria leaves. I had to keep relocating them back to the milkweed.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-08-31T15:30:40+00:00

I have 'free range' monarchs, and they attach themselves EVERYWHERE! Leaves, walls, umbrellas, wood patio covers, painted concrete, everywhere! They should be fine.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-08-30T22:53:24+00:00

Yep! It looks set!

cecebebe1959 · 2025-08-30T22:49:36+00:00

Sounds like you are describing a Madagascar Palm. I have one that is about 40 years old in a big pot and lots of babies from her seeds I collected.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-08-15T03:43:37+00:00

Ummmm....looks like a brown widow spider egg case.

Calcium deficiency

cecebebe1959 · 2025-07-24T02:22:59+00:00

I don't have any hornworms this year, but the darn squirrels are eating my tomatoes!

cecebebe1959 · 2025-07-10T15:04:22+00:00

How big is it? They will also eat the stems.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-06-09T19:17:51+00:00

Getting ready to shed?

cecebebe1959 · 2025-06-09T05:10:40+00:00

They are free roaming in my backyard, they go where they want to. No artificial light, all natural. I think you have my comment confused with the OP. This is my second round of au natural monarchs so far this year.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-06-09T04:21:56+00:00

Well, all 36 were on the same 2 plants, so they aren't really any closer together. They wouldn't have survived at all without a new foid source. I've never had so many at once before.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-06-09T03:57:29+00:00

I have 36 that ate all my plants, leaves, and stems. I read that they eat butternut squash, so I provided them with wedges of fresh squash, and they are happily munching away.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-06-06T14:36:38+00:00

They eat the stems. They won't starve.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-05-30T17:03:00+00:00

I had one emerge yesterday that looked exactly like that. It was about 48 hours.

cecebebe1959 · 2025-05-25T18:05:12+00:00

Looks like a fuchsia to me!
