Casey, you have lovely pastel blue water lilies. Why did the plant died? So sorry to hear that.
As of what I know of, they need full sun and regular fertiliser to thrive well.

nice orchids & morning glory KC...they add colour & cheerfulness to any garden.
btw, how big is your garden ? terrace house or semi-d ? mine is normal terrace house & i`m running out of space & i try to only specialise in CPs...heheh. plus some limited miscellaneous plants ( strawberry, daisies, african violets, passion flower etc ) to add some colour to the garden.

Casey, Tarence is just trying to be humble here. His place is a treasure trove. Got plenty of stuff especially CPs. A jungle in the midst of concrete jungle!   |

My house is town house, my car is parked inside my house. So, my garden is really small. And plant/flower is really messy. Those are old photo taken when they are brooming. I also want all of them broom at the same time  Life with baby... emmmm... so far so good, because my mother in law will take care my baby at night. It is really fun when seeing she play with her sliver, smell, sleep, nuts, pee... Now, she is almost 3 weeks. Time past really fast. |

well, it was a weak point in my life......haven`t bought any since last august i think. heheh.
btw, a friend who grows his in lowland conditions actually got it to bloom. maybe use some magic hocus pocus laa or just plain tender loving care.

yeah. been there a few plants already. always dying and rotting on me  . but the concolor should actually be alright given thick shade and some breeze. those barbatum and nivea come from intermediate altitudes and above, need a lot of simulating their habitat. |
