Variegated Century Plant (Agave americana 'Marginata') |
Have potted tropicals |
Have had several years, when it got bigger a few years ago, I just kept a small pup. I just up potted that pup into about a 10 inch black pot and found two spiraling offshoots trapped down below. So I think I will get a couple more pups now that those are freed and directed to the surface. Aug 2023, here I am again taking pups off the main one. Have a very nice one in a 6 inch clay pot from spring. |

Coffee (Coffea arabica) |
Have potted tropicals |
Got this as rooted cutting, I believe it was at fall swap 2016. See comments in DB. About 20 beans spring 2022. Grew a seedling! 2023 update seedling with 6 leaves, big one lost lots of leaves at library, and got bad mealybugs. Repotted, root pruned April. Thinking of pruning severely. Sep 2023- Did prune some branches and so far no sign of budding out. Time to ditch the big one. Little one doing well. Watch for mealybugs!! |

Elephant Ear (Colocasia esculenta 'Black Runner') |
Have potted tropicals |
could be black magic tho, is not ruffled but does run a couple runners each year even from a pot. Likes to bloom, resists dormancy, can take runner tips and start new babies. Prone to mites. 2019 looked very sick, I finally unpotted, tuber rotted, kept tiny cuttings/tips and one good sprout. 2023, Number of babies different ages this year. Leaves are dark green, no longer get that near black, while runners are dark purple near black. Hard to keep happy in pots, even in ground while it has a few HUGE leaves this year, they got bad areas, don't know why. |
