plantladylin said:Nice plants Cinta! For some reason, the only way I can keep Rex Begonia's alive is in a terrarium. I've killed so many Prayer Plants (Maranta) over the years but now have two that I purchased a few months ago and they are doing really well ... I think because I'm remembering to keeping the soil moist at all times and keeping the humidity up by having them sit on trays with moist pebbles as well. That Spider plant is interesting ... I've never heard of a short-leaf spider plant and it sure is pretty. Your Codiaeum (Croton) that you got last year sure is doing well, really pretty! I have a large Codiaeum I need to transplant soon ... it's planted behind the house and not getting enough light because it's being crowded out by some other shrubs.
bifftwelve,That is a really nice Calathea you have there! I have one on my screened back porch that is struggling to stay alive and another potted Calathea outside in deep shade that seems to thrive in that location!
Planto: That is a pretty Chlorophytum!
These are my two Prayer Plants, the first is the one that stays indoors and the second smaller plant is out on my screened porch.
