Interesting Stuff

This is pretty cool.... it's a Sinningia 'Polka Punch'. After only 15 days from when the cutting was inserted into a half perlite, half vermiculite mixture, a small tuber is already forming on the cut end of this stem.
This is even cooler. When taking home a new plant from the Sept. meeting a part of this Eucodonia broke off. Not having a spare pot at the time, it got stuck into another's pot and was left there for approximately 60 days. It recently got moved into a home of it's own and in that short amount of time it rooted, produced these rather good looking rhizomes and if you look a bit further up the stems, it also made some propagules. Plants are pretty good at making sure they survive.
