By radcrew96 on Mar 10, 2024 12:48 PM, concerning plant: Giant Japanese Butterbur (Petasites japonicus subsp. giganteus 'Nishiki-buki') Japanese butterbur seems to escape cultivation and naturalize easily. If it has such significant potential to become invasive in Virginia, maybe it shouldn't be encouraged? [ | 2 replies ] |
By kreemoweet on Mar 8, 2024 11:57 AM, concerning plant: Bittersweet Nightshade (Solanum dulcamara) Described height is far too small. My neighbors have this vine growing in their border evergreen trees. The vines scramble up to a height of at least 20 feet. This weed is one of the most difficult to eradicate, the tough woody roots run very deep. I'd rather have kudzu. [ | Reply to this comment ] |
By Australis on Mar 7, 2024 10:17 PM, concerning plant: Orchid (Cymbidium Bennett-Poei 'Virginia') This is Orchid on Newbold's selection of the grex, unfortunately mislabelled as one of its parent species (Iris-Like Cymbidium (Cymbidium iridioides)). The labellum is a clear giveaway that it is actually a Bennett-Poei rather than iridioides due to the tracyanum traits it displays. [ | Reply to this comment ] |
By Ster17 on Mar 7, 2024 4:16 PM, concerning plant: Peach (Prunus persica 'Arctic Supreme') Arctic Supreme has slightly smaller than average chalice shaped pale pink flowers. Constant checking to see if the fruit is ripe is required because the majority of the skin on the fruit remains cream/white with a red blush but the white portions that are not in direct sunlight have a light lime green hue and may appear to be unripe. Despite the pale color of the fruit the sweetness is absolutely divine. It is ripening in mid-September in zone 6b. Edited to include: Arctic Supreme tree has a loose columnar growth than wide spread. [ | Reply to this comment ] |
