the right term is...). >>
I've never considered the matter in just that light. Mine have always had a
center rib the running the length of the leaf.
<< Do you know (or anyone else for that matter) if I.M. has purple based
foliage.
Mine looks like it does, although I really want to see some new leaves before
I pass on that.>>
I think I've lost mine in all this rain, but as I recall it has some sort of
darkish bases.
<< I have potted mine in a mix of half azalea potting mix and half regular
potting mix with added vermiculite, perlite and sand for drainage. I wanted
to
be able to try them in different locations and thought my native clay was too
neutral to be good for them. >>
By hearsay, I know of one plant that lived in a pot for five years and
bloomed and was very happy. If mine is still here I am going to transplant it
to one.
