I was just loving the white leaves on Genes Philodendron, and said so, on one of Gene's posts showing the stunning white leaves. Next thing I know, he is sending me a plant. I cannot tell you how excited I was. The first pic above, is how the plant came, with a huge rootball, soil still damp, and in perfect condition, also shown in the second pic.
The third pic, is after potting it up.
The plant put on new leaves right away, in the 4th pic.
The 5th and 6th pics are of the plant already putting out a variagated leaf. It has been so much fun to watch this little plant and report to Gene, it's progress. I understand in about 6 months these plants begin to get really large. I have a couple rooms large enough for this, and will post pics along the way providing I don't loose it some how. Thanks Gene, it's such a fun plant, and your so dang kind!! If anyone knows what Gene collects or likes, I plan to reimburse for postage, but something special would be so fun to send along to say thank you with.
This place has the nicest people.
