I think you could, with maybe paying attention to watering and fertiliser. HOWEVER not really sure on that.... Will try to find out more... If you try that we woud really like to know ...
I've had three different plants with exactly the same flower. One looks exactly like that. When is shorter stubier and variegated, another was tall and variegated. Wish I could find the tall version again.
this "cloud pruning" is a more interesting shape than the traditional straightline hedges or spherical bush shapes. I approve. Im gonna do this to 25+year old Japanese box plants I have in my backyard
Hello, great video. I liv in UK and I don't think we have grow max here. Please can you tell me the NPK ratio in Grow max and needed for houseleeks so I can find an equivalent. Thank you
Well this is a coincidence. I just got seeds in the mail yesterday from Tonkins. Today a friend had me trying to identify this weird bulb growing in a friends garden. Brunsvigia josephinae it was & here I am.
Hawaii must provide the perfect conditions for the spore to grow, even better than the natural habitat. However as far as weeds go they are very attractive.
@@johnnyAGardening There already is a thriving native tree fern in the Hawaiian Islands, but the invasive ones have spread to areas where the native ones aren't found.
This one is a bit of an unknown, believed to be a Begonia Taiwaniana or Taiwanense? Cultivar however unsure. It was named B. Taiwanense however this does not seem correct. We are hunting down the name (slowly) as it is indeed a very lovely plant. Will let you know if we find out any more.
@@stitISH Two nurseries in Canada spring to mind, Arts Nursery and Kiwi Nursery. HOWEVER you would need to show them what you are after as a lot of varieties are around, with different banding on the foliage..
Look in the notes below the video for a list of trees mentioned, and also look in the subtitles. If it is still not clear let us know at which time stamp you have a question and we will be happy to try and help.
@@johnnyAGardening let's just say this time the leaves went full crispy, so i cut all that off and eating it lol. However, yeah, it's over 100 here now, and if i don't water twice a day, they were wilting. Pry just need saucers and keep the watering up and put them under the big tree more shade huh, because I want to do more. They were fine as long as I kept them from being dry too long in this heat.
it’s been about 4 weeks and my leaves are doing nothing. they’re still green, not shriveled, and just like they were when i took them off. but no sprouts
In can take a while for them to start shoeing real signs of growth, 4 - 12 weeks depending on conditions. If the leaves look healthy then you need to wait.
An advice, not everery body speak (understand spoken in reality) english perfectly, so some subtitle like "after 1 week, of after 3 week, on air, on water, on shadows, sun" can be helpful for your cousin from france 😉
What is the temperature inside your glass covered trays?(5:36)and what light do you use on them in germination stage or are they standing in greenhouse(sunlight)?
Thank you very much..I live in south africa..I think our weather is quite similar in terms of temperatures in the summer/winter.Its deep into winter here now..is it a good time to germinate lithops seeds now?
My spot for my greenhouse tray has quite good ambient sunlight for 8-10hours..but I have a 30W full spectrum led light already setup 50cm above the tray (adjustable) if needed.
@@johnnyAGardening my temp inside the tray MIN 14'C MAX 16'C...humidity 85%-95%...but today was a really cold day..(14'C)..we have many winter days 25'C-30'C.
THAT is a very interesting question. We have never seen it grown indoors and can find no information on growing it indoors either, however when we look at ours in indirecr bright light growing outdoors, then maybe. I think we may pot one up and try it. Just because..... Maybe worth a try , it could be a fairly spectacular indoors plant.
@@johnnyAGardening I just got one from the garden centre and its sitting beside me in its pot as I type this, but its only been indoors for a day. The fact that it can live in shadier places makes me wonder if it could be a houseplant but I don't know about its 1-humidity requirements, 2 -are the roots comfortable in a pot long term 3-Does it actually need a cooler dormant period that being indoors all the time would disrupt? Thanks for answering though.
@@smithfield731 This one like moderate humidity, so away from heating and cooling ducts. A cooler dormant period would be advised. As for the root system, we have grown them in pots (24 inch - 60 cm) for 4 years and then divided repotted them. The rhizomes do spread so it depends on the soil, fertiliser etc. So in our opinion indoors you would get 2 - 3 years in the pot before needing to divide or repot them. Let us kn ow how you go with it if you try it..... And good luck, - nothing ventured nothing gained.
How is it that I found pumpkin vines growing in the worst soil ever!!!! I swear it was so dry!!!! Like a rock! I must know how because they are ginormous.( I don't know what type of pumpkin they are do to the pumpkin vines most likely coming from a Halloween pumpkin one of the 3 different types. )
Excellent video. I'm just starting to get interested in these fascinating and beautiful plants-now I can see where this might lead! Impressive collection. I'm finding, however, that there seems to be a shortage of books on the subject.
For Lithops the Book- Lithops. Flowering stones by Desmond and Maureen Cole is very good. More general but still very good is Succulent Flora of Southern Africa by Doreen Court and also Lithops - Treasures of the Veld by Steven Hammer
First harvest of a French type today. Finally invested in some last fall. I have been growing the Zebrune from seed. They seem to very well also. My question is, do you save some of your own stock for replanting in the fall? If it’s possible, any different about storage until then? Thanks! I’ll appreciate the help. 😊
We do save our own to replant. Starage is basically the same, cool, dry, dark. We split them into individual bulbs and check them to make sure non have stated to rot.. Has worked well for a number of years..
Hello Loris, Without knowing exactlt what youare doing its hard to tell. SO Make sure you let the stems callus over (the cut needs to dry) before putting into the . potting mix. DO NOT mist spray, Make sure to potting mix is not wet just a little damp. If these three thing don't help, let us know in more detail what you are doing.
My mum never pruned hers, she loved it so much. She passed last year and im at her home keeping the garden looking good. Thanks for the video, mums is a little smaller but in desperate need of a good prune. I know its set and healthy, now I’ll know its tough too. 👍🇦🇺
My pumpkins are broke. I have male only flowers. And the buds get huge then fall off by evening. The vines themselves are taking over the entire yard. Idk why there are no female flowers
Hello Bridgette, the male flowers appear first, usually around 2 week before the female flowers. Once the female flowers appear then things should start to happen. If no pollinators are around then start hand pollinating when those female flowers first appear. Should be plenty of both males and females at this time...
I got a plants whose tag doesn’t specify the type. The mature size listed is 4-5 feet high by 3-4 feet wide. Would this be the bush or standard variety?
