Dwarf Variegated Namwa Pearl
How many people here bought one of these off ebay last year and how many still survive?
I still have mine but it's very slow growing because I can't give it much light without the leaves frying due to the almost total lack of color. |

Re: Dwarf Variegated Namwa Pearl
I've got 2 that I have had since July 2005. They are slowly (very slowly) growing and look okay but I will be 100 years old before they ever bloom.

Re: Dwarf Variegated Namwa Pearl
Richard, are those from the same seller that sold all the TC's last year? They look really different than mine.

Re: Dwarf Variegated Namwa Pearl
Mitchel,
I got mine from a person who was selling them on eBay but I actually picked them up when I was in central Florida. The person I got mine from was located around Ocala, Florida. I don't remember their seller's ID. The 2 plants look a little different from each other (one is a little darker green than the other) but the pictures don't show it all that well. Richard |

Re: Dwarf Variegated Namwa Pearl
I bought one, but I overwatered it inside over the winter in Michigan. I wish I could get another one. if any of your plants shoots a pup I have first dibs!!! I've been trying to get a hold of another one on E-bay for a while with no luck. Let me know.
Thanks, Carlos |
