Some plants came in from the house a relative was renting and he is now moving out from.
There is a poor looking Chamaedora, a huge pot of a Tradescantia Silamontana (White Velvet), a withered lemon tree
and a Draceana Sanderiana. He also had a mistreated Hoya carnata, which I only kept some cuttings off, I don't even know
if this plant can be propagated like that, but I will give it a try.
I cut much of the Tradescantia Silamontana off, it was "empty" on one side of the pot while the other was flourishing
and maybe it can grow in some better condition now.
I have no idea what is wrong with the Chamaedora, but it had many brown leaves and the others had got thick and hardened
by the exposure to different conditions than it needed actually. I'm surprised it survived, my relative has no idea of plants
and destroyed pretty much all he had purchased. They were just put in a verandah and watered way much more than
necessary. Then forgotten again and then excess watering. So, I think all that survived must be some kind of hero plants!
The pots are very big, but I will not even try to repot anything. All that is to be done, except the trimming down I did to brown
leaves, etc, is going to be put off until spring. I hope they survive their moving in to my house and all the changes to
their conditions.
