I took my chances last year on some Pluto tc from variegated mother. They haven’t grown very big just yet but I’m HOPING. 🤞 I’m trying really hard not to buy plants during the winter months anymore. It’s too stressful on me and them. It seems from past experiences that when I buy in the cold months my plant tends to grow really, really slooow.
Thanks, loved the video. I also confuse P. Jose Buono with P. Paraiso Verde. The Florida Green is very similar to the P. Rudolph. I bought a Rudolph at the Union Square Greenmarket for a whopping ten bucks- would like a Florida Ghost but at least the leaves are the same beautiful shape.
P. Jose Buono is a variegated P. imbe, its a more compact plant, can even be bushy when its smaller. P. Paraiso Verde, is more trailing/vining with more space between nodes. P. imbe has been moved to a different genus too. P. Rudolph is just listed as a P. pedatum, one of the parents of P. Florida. There were different forms of P. pedatum that were lumped together, the guy that hybridized P. Florida also made P. Florida Compacta with two of the plants that are now P. pedatum.
My Billie has the ribbing too. They look a lot like Atabapoense too only ata has a beautiful red burgundy coat on the back of her leaves. Totally obsessed.
I'd like to know how to tell the ( Dracenia) sansevieria black coral from the zeylanica. They both have paler stripes and darker leaves depending on the amount of light they get. I can't tell the more pictures I look at online the more I'm convinced it's the same plant. I have an old snake plant, over thirty years old, and I'd just like to know what kind it is 😂
Hmmm that I have no idea. I am not a wide collector of snake plants, because I STRUGGLE with succulents. How big is your 30 year old snake plant?!? Here’s what I found about the difference between the two snake plants you mentioned: ‘Zeylanica’ has a similar form, but its horizontal rippled stripes alternate in soothing shades of silver and grayish-green. Sansevieria ‘Black Coral’ has a slightly darker - almost black-green - background alternating with its gray-green stripes. Sansevieria ‘Black Gold’ is even more striking. It has the long, bright yellow stripes running along the leaf margins like ‘Laurentii’, but the area between these stripes is almost entirely black-green. And if you prefer all your stripes to be vertical, try S. ‘Bantel’s Sensation.’ It has alternating white and gray bands that run the entire length of each leaf.

@@carmielmarcelline thank you, I quite like the one with the white stripe all the way up but I've never seen it for sale. My poor snake plant, has had a tough life he's been over watered, with love, shoved into the darkest corner because that's what I was told he needed. He's been under watered so he went dormant for years, lost his color, reverted back to dark dark stripes and etiolated leaves. He's had way too big a pot to try and get him to grow. His leaves have flopped in a desperate attempt to communicate. So last summer, I threw him on the balcony with a bit of shade south facing, repotted him tighter forgot to water him and by the end of summer he had new leaves about 6 inches high very variegated, thick, straight and still growing! So I brought him in and stuck him in a west window and he's still growing, he's going to explode next summer. All those wasted years..............if only I had questioned what I was told back then but everyone said the same thing, little water and very dark corner incredibly slow grower! A leaf every three four years.
Good tutorial 😊
Thanks for being here 💚
I wannnaaaaa whipple way soooooo much! I love my snowdrift.
Me too but I can’t justify spending $$$$$ on it 😅😅😅 I’m on a dry January for plants

I would say that is a billietiae. Mine looks like this as a juvenile too.
Yay! Glad I wasn’t duped! She seems to be THRIVING! How long have you had yours?
@carmielmarcelline I've had mine since August. it has only made two new leaves so far but it has not lost any

@@Gee-xb7rt thanks very interesting. I knew that P. Florida and P. Rudolph were somehow related, didn’t know both were hybrids of P. Pedatum.
I had no idea about this! Thanks so much for sharing 💚💚💚
The plant they sold you as a Billie looks more like an Esmeraldens because of the ribbing 🤷♀️ 😀🇨🇦
OMG really? I feel like that’s another cultivar I didn’t realize couple be a lookalike 🤣🤣🤣

I’d say it’s a Billie.
Phewwwww 😅😅😅
