Yup...indeed it is for your first picture. A side view shot of your ionantha will be good to determine your second pic. I think it's a stricta form. Here's one of mine in bloom.  |

No idea on pic. no 1 & 2. Needs closer inspection or beter still a flowering plant will give good answer. No 2 might be a cyanea. But there's no lineated red lines on the undersides of it's leave.
No 3a & 3b are the same sp. which is T. paucifolia Mexican form.
Cheers,

Thanks Andy! Now I can tag no.3. I just saw a flower bud on No.2. Will be able to post a picture when it blooms. Sigh! Just got this fella and now it is blooming. Then it's gonna die on me. Hopefully I'll get some pups.
Is T. paucifolia an easy till to grow? Any special attention that I should give to it? Thanks.

You are welcome. Remember to show us your bloom soon Paucifolia is a pretty much neglect proof plant. It can tolerate a wide range of lighting intensity from well shaded place to dappled light. It will cause no harm to your plant. Yor watering should follow it's location. Ie, the brighter it is then more frequent you should water it. Fast pupper too. It can clump up in no time.....So quickly beat it for more pups! ;D ;D ;D |
