Rubber plant question - January 11th, 2004 at 07:13 PM
Hi everyone, rank newbie here... I've got a modest - but well loved - collection of house plants that I've been growing under fluorescent lighting. So far all of them seem to be doing quite well, but this morning I noticed something new to me with my rubber plant.
The plant itself is small, about 8 inches tall, set in a 6 inches clay pot, and it's been growing vigorously and shooting out new leaves from everywhere. I noticed a few new growths on it today, what I took at first to be young leaves, very slender, pale green worm shaped growths. A few of them had fallen so I examined them closely; they are NOT worms, despite their shape <g> but apart from that I'm pretty much at a loss.
I took a picture of it, and while I've got no web site where I could put it, I'll gladly e-mail it to anyone interested ( It's a very small .jpeg ) This is my first rubber plant and I'd hate to lose it !
Thanks to all you great people !
