Looks very similar to the pictures of a plant being called herringbone a couple of months back. Not a plant I am familiar with.

Only advice i would give you, is resist the urge to cut it for a while. Let it grow and get a full head of steam. Cutting small plants can really set them back.

Yes anna, i will see what i can do. Moose, look lower, the leaves end up scarlet and black

That's an interesting idea. Only problem is that when plants are young or out of color there is simply no way to ID them. You just have to grow stuff out. Yikes.

There are two different Amdro for different types of ants. And no other product other than brand name Amdro will give you the same result.

Ants don't transport scale, they defend it from predators. Without ants, scale insects are defenseless. But you have to have a healthy population on non poisoned predators. I've been a commercial grower for 15 years, and a hobbyist for 25. The only pest control I've ever owned is Amdro and bug -...

If you spray anything, Amdro can't work. Amdro only kills ants. You are relying on natural predators to kill the scale, once the ants are gone. Spraying wipes those predators out.

I second that. Amdro. No ants, no scale.

Dean, ramsayi on the left, elegans (peltata 'sumawongii') on the right. George really has done a great job with those plants. Pretty sure those were Hawaiian babies from marcus. Notice the flowering satakentia on the right. George is not playing around.

No photoshop, just george in his back yard this morning. The licualas look big because george is a tiny little fellow. He's so tiny, he has to drive a dodge, because his little feet can't reach the pedals in a ford.

Zammas wasn't ready to host anything this year. But says he will be ready for next year. Put him on the list.

Hold on a minute. Now there are 5 plants and even more names, and I have no idea which plant is connected to which name. I'm totally lost here. Phil, you are usually crystal clear, but I'm beyond confused. Forget everything else for a minute. My question was based on the pic moose posted as red...

What is different about that plant and red wizard/queen of siam?

If you don't have one, get a little wheel grinder (harbor freight $16.) and keep that thing sharp. They are twice as effective, just watch your toes.

those are top 10 plants for me. Beautiful stuff David

This might help a little. The dr. Lin yu tang in the book is an error. It is just a really nice commotion.

Second one looks like a blacked out Irene kingsley. the heavy midribs on the fingers are the giveaway. Plant it in more light and it should color up

George Zammas found this one junking around my nursery. It has leaves the size and shape of general paget. No name so far.

The clown was a Davis plant. Harold Lee knew it was there, searched through everything till he found it, and propagated it. The clown. Saved. Thanks, lee

The top one is called laffeyette. Comes from the palmetto/Bradenton area. Sort of like a blacked out stoplight but the flush can be insane.
