Uh oh, I'm getting my addiction back, thanks to you andy lisham: those are selerianas, it's quite something interesting to see selerianas doing so well in the open under rain and sun is it not andy?

Andy, how do you keep your Tillis so clean and healthy out in the open?

Yes lisham, those are seleriana. Well known for its' bulbous base and thend to rot easily if not well taken care of.
Funckchips.....thought all the while you are addicted?? As you have noticed, I don't mount mine upright!
David, I don't know how to answer you....I just grow them leave it to the mercy of rain and shine + scheduled fertiliser programme.

andy: it sort of went away for a while because I was on the verge of deciding on keeping only Neps since one tilly managed to rot inside out (it was a grey leaved stricta). Then yesterday I went to pulau indah fair and found myself buying tills again from khairi Now I'm hopelessly back into tills.

seleriana.... not easy... ok... I'll keep that in mind.
how bout caputmedusa? Easy?
I think I've seen it offered for sale in Sungai Petani once. It looks like it tho. Now it's haunting my dreams becos I didn't buy it that time.

Xeros, juncea, ionantha, usneoides work fine for me so far....I take it that anything with lots of trichomes means more sun and less water?

Caput medusae is a hardy plant. Will tolerate almost any enviroment given. Lisham, I think my remark will make you feel even worse!
