A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The House Plant Forum Cacti and Succulents Indoors Thanks for the epi Diane!

A few weeks ago, Diane sent me some cuttings from her epi plant. They arrived a bit wilted, so I stuck them in a glass of water. Amazingly, they started to root the very next day! I decided to leave them in the water to get some good roots before potting them up. Today was the day they graduated into a pot. Diane also sent me her wonderful home-made potting soil mix - the cuttings are so very happy in their new pot in her mix right now - thanks so much Diane!

Don't they look like feathers here?


A closer look at the roots - yea!


I've had this new pot for about 6 months now just waiting for the right plant!
I think they were made for each other!


On the glass shelf in front of the window next to my bed, with a new friend.

they look great Lynne, and I SOOOOOOOOOO LOVE THAT POT! they had time to callous over as why they rooted so quickly,,

Lynne---that epi and your pot were made for each other!!! and now your other plant has company.

Diane how nice of you. Such a fantastic gift from one friend to another.

Thanks Carol!


psssssssssst - Diane - that pot is from Home Goods! :wink:

Lynne here is the bloom from that Epi,, Njoynit gave me, She has 2 or three different epis,, white ones and red ones,, I have a piece from Bills his is red I believe,, and It's growing pretty well,, and DOdge sent me some of her epi recently and it's growing well also,,
This pic was taken a couple of years ago,, But this is the bloom of what I sent you, and yes they do bloom inside as well,, feed lightly every 4to 6 weeks and they like being root bound

wow ladies, they bloom too !!! that is sure an added bonus!!!

Diane, if the one you got from Bill does bloom red, I would like to see it, you'll post a picture of it right???.--
