I absolutely love them. I don’t find them particularly difficult in my windows and I don’t know why so many seem to struggle. Could it be the trouble with original jungle plants? Their leaves are just so stunning I honestly never get impatient for flowers. Mites and mealies do be lovin’ their nooks and crannies though. Lord.
Vini Maudiaes, Brachys, and she's really wanting to get more long petaled Phrags.
I wanna hear more about that!
Oooohhhhhh!!!! I have a few seedlings too! Maybe we can trade down the road!
! what's your secret to keeping the leaves, nooks and crannies clean?
Of pests you mean? I have never had to deal with any I guess. I am super careful when introducing new plants. When I see signs of minor mites problem I just spray all the plants with water mixed with a few drops of soap. I do that for a couple weeks and they’re gone. Some people have problems with spots and rots when they wet brachy leaves. But mine don’t mind. In fact I think they like it. I grow indoors and my humidity is super low especially in the winter. Now it’s about 30%
Why do you think a lot of people have trouble with them? (Based on the responses here and on fb) Temperature too cold? Esp in a greenhouse?Same here. No bugs on brachys and I like it that way.
I pour water all over my Brachys since the leaves are all too tightly packed in. That’s the only way. Never had spots or rotting issues.
