Nice, I had at least one pearcie/ecuadorense and now I can't find it.. I guess it's off to the auctions!

 

[eaborne]

Love it!

 

[Migrant13]

Such a dainty little leprechaun!

 

[Wendy]

That's really cute....peeking out of the leaves. :clap:

 

[naoki]

Very nice! It looks like a huge plant.

 

[17andgrowing]

Love it.

 

[SlipperKing]

For whatever reason, this plant and its cousin, pearcei love the S/H culture. Grow crazy

 

[SlipperFan]

Sweet!

 

[John M]

[Clark]

Some folks have expressed interest in seeing the pot below the rim.

Here is the kind of container ecuadorence is in.

Another difficult species for the Houston area is schlimii but not with S/H

the schlimii roots

 

[Linus_Cello]

Your plastic containers seem pretty hefty. The "take out" containers we have for grocery potato salad is pretty flimsy.
I think I'll switch my schlimi to s/h. Thanks!

 

[John M]

VERY interesting. Those plants sure do look very happy! So, am I correct in assuming that the containers have a drainage hole or two about an inch above the bottom, creating a water reservoir in the very bottom?

 

[SlipperKing]

Yes John. Check out the mustard container you will even see one root has existed the pot through the hole!

 

[Kawarthapine]

Nice plant and great s/h shots.

If you don't mind me asking, are you using K-Lite, MSU, something else or a combination?

 

[John M]

Yes John. Check out the mustard container you will even see one root has existed the pot through the hole!

Ah ha! I see that. Thanks. Hmmm? I'm gonna try this with a few.....

 

[Stone]

Nice one.
