Plant Update C

Yet more.

21. China doll.




This has exploded. Nice shiny foliage.

22. Cryptanthus



Crypt-anything means a mystery. Apropos name. Looks nice.

23. Mango


After throwing away three mango seeds ;_; for rot, three remain. A baby just starting to send up a shoot, an infant throwing its first canopy, and a toddler with full dark green leaves growing new ones.

The bigger one has already been repotted.

24. Mangosteen


An incredible edible experience, mangosteen (unrelated to mango), is easily considered one of the most difficult plants to grow under any conditions. The above is first growth.




The above two plants are the latest in my mangosteen growth. I have now a total of four healthy mangosteen seedlings. I might be the only one in my state with such.

25. Tiger Aloe.




Quite beautiful in person. Aloe variegata / Tiger Aloe. It looks exactly what a "cool" plant should!

26. Jackfruit




After a horde of slugs ripped through by other jackfruit seeds, I decided to grow them inside. It worked. One has sprouted :0

27. Lychee.
Before even looking at the pictures, just say to yourself, "he does have room to live". First pictures are in situ outside, which will change. Then the indoor.







Ten total....

28. Dendrobium 1



The dendrobium has new growth!
