| Primulina 'Loki' - 5 years |
What if your
houseplant only lasted for five years?
My Primulina ‘Loki’ lives at the
west kitchen window. Previous blog
stories show that it has been growing there for 4-5 years.
It gets water and light, never had
any fertilizer. The flower bud count is
down to 2, so maybe it’s showing that some fertilizer would help.
However, it does show that fertilizing houseplants has little
to do with success. Water without
drowning and light is what matters.
If you would want to design a flowering houseplant that could
live for years and flower occasionally, you would have difficulty.
But, look----we have that plant ---Primulina.
Like an African Violet –but better!
