Hello, friends!
I have two AVs, bought from a grocery supermarket about 2 months ago. When I bought them, they were flowering beautifully, one pink and one blue. I know that it is not advisable to get
plants from grocery stores but they were only $2 each and looked healthy; who'd be able to resist?
After I brought them home, I read about them on this forum; asked advice from the members and got plenty of very helpful info.
I replanted them in a well draining soil, in AV pots (selfwatering double pots).
Now there seems to be a problem.
One of them, the pink one, has damaged leaves. It does not seem to be dying, but all leaves, even the new ones have strange spots close to edges. From the top the leaves look as if they are wet at the adges, and if you look on the inside of the leaf, those "wet" places are brownish. When I touch leaves, they are firm and springy to the touch, not wet or rotten.
Any ideas? Something is definetely wrong, but what?
The other one, blue one, looks good. But neither is blooming, I am hoping they are resting.
thank you and happy gardening,
t.
