First for the autumn damask rose. It is a repeat bloomer and thus a rarity among old European roses most of which flower only once a year. Legend has it that this rose, having disappeared from Europe, was reintroduced by French crusaders from the city of Damascus from where it got its name.

i want to put in rugosa roses as a space filler but is this a cop out? i dont know much about roses or rose varieties

Does anyone here have experience with sugarcane?
Someone bought me some rootstalks and I planted them asap because I was told they go bad quickly, but I'm a bit clueless about what to do now.

>>5037654
They're fine I guess but look into rugosa hybrids to add variety and flavor https://www.trevorwhiteroses.co.uk/product-category/rugosa-roses/#:~:text=Rugosa%20roses%20are%20extremely%20hardy,colourful%20additions%20to%20a%20garden.

Is there a site or app I can use to easily check what type of soil and watering scheme trees and bushes have? I already killed two japanese maples and I'm pretty sure It's because of improper soil..

>>5037824
What soil do you have?

>>5037827
I don't know I just mixed in soil from my yard and some store bought one my grandma uses for her flowers. But I think it was too heavy, it got very clumpy when you watered it which I don't think is good for a tree like that.

How do carnivores grow so god damn fast when they intentionally have to be starved of nutrients

I shouldn't start bringing my succulents inside until it starts being like, 5c at night, right?
It got down to 9 last night (in AUGUST) and i felt so chilly that I worried too much and moved them
I know deserts get really cold at night, but they're also incredibly dry and most of mine are from mexico, not the sahara.

I just noticed the leaves are changing color for fall
in AUGUST

You, the mere plant, will be content within the confines of the pot that I, God, have graciously allowed you. You will grow vertically, in a way that is aesthetically pleasing to me, lest you take up more room than I have alotted to you. You will remain full, lush, and in one piece, rather than breaking apart and spreading yourself to lands unknown, leaving selfish scars that are ugly to my eye.

>>5037814
yeah i was thumbing through a couple sites, but the wild type seem to win out on fragrance if nothing else

>>5038080
Roseraie de l'Haÿ, Hansa, Dagmar Hastrup, Schneekoppe etc are all heirloom hybrids that are said to possess strong fragrance.

Another way is by using humidity domes. Results are average to poor.

I'm using the subpar humidity dome method because i dont have the space to set up a mist system and to be honest it's been kicking my ass lol. My success rate so far is probably less than 20%. That being said it also depends on the variety. Some roses root more easily than others. Pic related opened my eyes as to the superiority of a mist system. This cutting accidentally fell out of its tray but rooted regardless because of the perfect humidity.

No. Try to recreate it's substrate it was taken from and it's sun and moisture exposure. Identify the plant

Question:
Virgar is now massively outgrowing the space next to my couch (I repotted him this year and the first tips of his roots are already coming out through the drainage hole again). I would like to plant him outside (Austria) on a spot where a blue spruce is currently standing but will be cut down in the coming years and I was wondering if the soil is fit for a Dicksonia Antarctica. Soil is mostly rock, almost no humus and I assume quite sour. His plant neighbour would be an elderflower.
Pic related from three weeks ago; his newest leaf is 1,78 meters now.

>>5038343
The browning is oxidation from being exposed to air. Try keeping them wet.

>>5039765
You want to let the cut dry up unless you're doing water propagation, otherwise it'll rot.

wild virgins bower is blooming rn, how long do i need to wait for seeds?

>>5039758
They range from tropical to pretty cold areas in Australia, but I don't know how cold Austria gets. They like to grow under taller trees, and Australian forests develop a lot of ground layer keeping them a bit moist - they hate dryness despite being fire/drought hardy like most Australian plants.

If you were to move Virgar outside I'd suggest digging a hole larger than his root ball and adding some richness/moisture retention to the backfill and giving him a nice layer of mulch over the area to help him stay warmer, moist and breakdown over time.

Don't plant too deep, give him some stakes while he re-roots.

Hail Virgar

It feels like there's a conspiracy to make sure nobody knows how to keep these, the rare moments it seems like someone might know what they're talking about they drop off the face of the internet before they say anything substantial.
I'm planning on keeping it in water until it roots, putting it in a vermiculite heavy cactus mix with a water tray, and then letting it go dormant for winters.
Does anyone know anything about these? Do they lose their roots the moment they go dormant or just after a really long time of dormancy? I'm not sure if its worth the trouble if I'd have to fully reestablish it each time

Mine also seems to have 2 rosettes which is fun, I didn't even know they did that

Are there plants I can efficiently use as mosquito deterrant/control(maybe carnivorous plant pr a plant that attracts mosquito predators)?

>>5041637
Plants don't really deter them. Having a year-round ecosystem will keep more predators around, birds, hummingbirds, and bats all contribute, but the root problem is the standing water ponds they reproduce in (their larvae are aquatic). Fish and dragonflies have the actual power to stop their life cycle and eliminate them, but you need to own the pond and let them take it over to have an impact. This assumes you even know where they're coming from and aren't just living in a swampy area with random pools everywhere, as they can travel pretty far.

The solution, which won't work, is to just add wildflowers and pollinator stuff. Year-round nectar, seeds, the insects they attract, and water will keep predators around. The issue will only be resolved if you plant this stuff around the actual problem area(s). Mosquitoes actually mostly eat nectar and only need the protein boost from blood to lay their eggs, so technically planting flowers attracts them; not sure if this contributes to them choosing to use a trapped pond, but it stands to reason.

I find pumpkins kind of fun. About 5 kilograms per vine weight. Weird.

Is it the case that literally every single kind of carnivore is a good to decent fit for a terrarium except specifically venus flytraps?

>>5042397
No. Any kind of temperate carnivore that needs a winter dormancy isn't suited; dionea, sarracenia, and temperate drosera. Good choices would be tropical sundews, pings or nepenthes (these are more challenging). I've heard of people giving temperate plants a winter dormancy in the refrigerator but even so, carnivores temperate or not need a TON of sunlight not just a windowsill that gets 5 hours in the morning.

>>5042410
Do people really keep "terrariums" without overhead lighting??
Why are nepenthes challenging aside from their size?

>>5042412
>Do people really keep "terrariums" without overhead lighting??
The sky is the limit in terms of how technical and in-depth you wanna go for houseplants, but the floor is just as low. Tons of etiolated cacti and straggly jades out there.
>Why are nepenthes challenging aside from their size?
I'm no nepenthes expert, but from what I understand many of them need specific humidity and nighttime temperature swings to simulate the highland rainforests they they're native to. There are some very forgiving cultivars that you can find in any old big box nursery though, I think "Bloody Mary" is common.

There was a guy with an impressive nepenthes collection hanging around a few threads ago, maybe he's still around to give a proper explanation.

>>5042416
Does this mean I shouldn't add nepenthes to my outdoor collection where Id have to take them in for winter

>>5042248

Incredible little creature. Still no sign of roots, assuming it didn't chuck off whatever little it might have been growing. I don't know if giving it more rocks in its water bowl will encourage it or not, it's getting full sun now so it should have the energy.

Damn, this cissus rotundifolia is popping off faster than a pothos.

so giant underbrush plants that don't need a lot of light grow really fast because they're drinking in all the light they can get, which is why they burn up in full sun so easily, and tiny desert plants are basically working to ignore 90% of the light that hits them, which is why they need a ton of light and grow really slowly?

I planted raspberries and for 2 years now they've born fruit, but this year these other plants grew out of the same area. The yellow plant with the red arrow is the original raspberry stem I planted. A lot of raspberries did end up in the dirt/dropped by me both last year and this year so they could be from that, but they have different leaves from what I can tell. Is it just a weed or something?

>>5045979
Are they different leaves? They're still in groups of 3 and have visible thorns so it's still a rubus of some kind. To me it still looks like a raspberry. Canes always die after 2 years, and they have a big rhizome that spawns new plants and makes a big patch over time. They should just be clones of the original plant connected to the same root system.

>>5046143
Some of them, to me at least, seem to group up into groups of 5 leaves instead of 3. But I'm just completely ignorant on the topic and don't know if that matters. You're probably right to be honest, your explanation makes logical sense, and they do seem similar enough, I guess I was just shocked by the explosiveness of the growth and I'm 100% new to this kind of thing to be honest. But yeah, I'll tidy them up and try and give them some structure with the bamboo poles and string and hopefully they sprout fruit next year.

I did originally plant 3 seperate canes but only 2 bore fruit and the instructions said cut them to the ground so on the second cane I did that this year so we'll see next year, but like you said they only fruit for 2 years. So, we'll see I guess. But like I said, thanks for your post, it's definitely swayed me on leaving it be vs cutting it to shreds next time I trim the grass.

>>5046385
The individual plant should still be there making new canes in the same spot. They make a new one every year, which does nothing for a year, and the old one from last year fruits and then dies. It takes 2 years to get fruit, but since it's constantly rotating canes in, it's still a yearly crop and lives for decades. If you have an everbearing or primocane fruiting variety this process will be less obvious since it flowers multiple times.

You do want to remove the dead canes just to avoid clutter, and in the long term you will get a ton of daughter plants which you can dig up to expand your garden if you want, or else just whack them back to keep things contained. The ones you want to keep producing, just leave them alone (well, technically you can top them to cause branching if you want). The new plants probably just look different because they're new growth, and probably have some slight adaptations to your yard.

The rhizome is essentially an underground stem that expands out to the sides, and it has nodes of stem cells which can become the roots of a new plant whenever it wants. It will just keep expanding into a little grove over time like bamboo does, or rather 3 of them since you planted 3. This can get a little technical for species that need different varieties (genetic individuals) or have different sexes for pollination, but this is not one of them. If you really want to confirm that they're clones, they should be attached to the main plant if you try digging one up. (Feel free to separate and move them, since they still have their own roots.)

Right now yours are still small, but when they're well and truly established, they are known as a pretty severe nuisance if you don't keep up with removing them. Also, you can probably see why people use rope instead of individual stakes for support. This is all a good thing if you want lots of fruit, but you will hit a limit of what you're willing to pick or can even eat, you know, years from now.

Should I prune or clip it? This is my first plant thats not just keeled over

Speaking of sempervivum, what happens when one of them dies? Do its offshoots stay connected by the stems and they start forming like a bush with branches or do the stems rot away and they become separated?

I have a BlackBerry tree in my backyard. Last year it was great, they weren't supper sweet but still tasty, and since then it grew an extra branch which almost doubled the quantity of berries it gives.
But now they are basically flavorless. So I am wondering if I cut off the extra branch the berries in the rest of the tree will have more nutrients and be more flavorful.
Would that work? Or should I do something else?

>>5048848
Ferns, so the soil is moist all the way through since they need it to be humid.
Which also makes it an ideal breeding ground for fungal gnats. But given I just planted and sterilized everything I used, I don't see how they could have gotten in or if they were hitchhikers.

My current cupboard status. Please don't judge how bare it looks... I haven't been able to get any moss

Monstera is doing well, so is the Prayer Plant and the Aglaonemas. Planted a Pothos in the top, looks like it's settled in.
Bottom Left was a Begonia that died, I planted an Umbrella Plant there (I got a whole set for another planting, they're doing well there) but it yellowed and went scraggly in less than a week
Idk what caused it. I'm still sad over the Begonia it was gorgeous

But if plants grow using carbon dioxide, then we should be watering them using carbonated water

I have some daylilies in my garden that I've messed around with hybridizing a little bit. I'll know more about if any of it worked in a year or two when the most recent batch flowers. I also am trying this out with irises, but I have just collected the seeds this year so it'll be a while before I know if anything worked. I have crossed plants more successfully with African violets, since they are pretty easy and a little quicker. Those are some good looking crosses, how do you go about hybrizing/seed starting?

That's cool! I'm glad I'm not the only here who hybridizes with daylilies! I'm looking forward to seeing how they turn out!

I have crossed plants more successfully with African violets, since they are pretty easy and a little quicker. Those are some good looking crosses, how do you go about hybrizing/seed starting?

I've only done hybridizing with daylilies, but I can give you a quick rundown on how I do it. First, I select my pod parent and pollen parent. Typically I just select two plants with flowers I would like to combine. Recently I've been really into tetraploid broken colors (Undefinable, Explosion In The Paint Factory, Augie's Unique Beauty) and I'm trying to make more broken colors with more unusual characteristics (double, polymerous, scuplted form, dark eye zones contrasting with light petals, toothed edges, glitter gold edges, etc). I try to get my pollen right as it's dry, which depends on the day to day humidity and weather. Typically between 10am and 2pm. I take the pollen from the pollen parent and use it to pollinate the flower of the pod parent. I check if there's any pollen on the pod parent's flower already, if there is I can't use that flower as a pod parent. If I'm lucky, the pollen takes and a seed pod begins forming there after a couple days. When the seed pod begins opening on its own (about this time of year), I take the seeds and put them in a coin envelope and keep them in the fridge (not freezer) over winter. Then I plant them outside in pots in the spring, typically late May or early June. I keep the seedlings outside over winter too, I only want to deal with plants that can live in my local climate.

They take years to grow to a size where people think they're good enough to buy, you need a huge surplus of said large plants, all of which need space, soil, light, etc, nobody even values plants at more than a couple dollars, and they buy one and they have it forever, you'd have to get a new variety to have a repeat customer.

>>5052229
Anon have you never been to a garden center because what you're describing is simply not true

>>5052402
Yes it is
If some of my sempervivums turn out to be dupe varieties of ones I already have in the spring, there's no way anyone would pay more than like 2 or 3 bucks for them, which would only cover the cost of the pot, not even the soil, or what I had paid for it if I hadn't just stolen cuttings. And that's after months to a year of rehab just to get them to have their proper shape and colors, they'd still be tiny.

>>5052229
It is a tight business, which largely operates on margin, high volume and a lot of cheap "un"skilled labour that can perform repetitive actions like taking cuttings, dividing, grafting, sowing and repotting very quickly. For most high volume production nurseries you are looking at about 10 to 15% profit per unit before taxes. Growth and business development is therefore difficult because the margins are so tight, and as you say the market value for most plants are pretty low. Seasonal loans make the industry turnover, either from your seed and wholesale suppliers or from the banks. Specialising in a particular niche is basically your only route if you do not have easy access (read: inheritance) to much land or capital/loans, and niche plants tend to be biome species like cacti and succulents, tropicals, alpines etc that need specific conditions that add another overhead. An alternative route is focusing on breeding and cultivar development, which can allow you to patent/trademark your plants and sell propagation rights to larger nurseries, and if managed intelligently can be done with significantly less space than your standard commercial nursery. Sometimes new cultivars emerge from these nurseries by accident too, usually sports and mutants, but shouldn't be expected.

Ultimately you need to really love plants, and love seeing plants multiply, to commit to such a business. Nursery owners usually have something about them that suggests this is the only thing they're willing to do with their lives, and everyone else can just deal with it.

Each time a new shoot has emerged and with this one none of the three original leaves remain.

I'll preface by saying I don't know what I'm doing. My sunflower has droopy leaves, they feel thin, it's still budding, but I'm a little worried. The leaves at the bottom are starting to yellow. There's too many tall buildings around me, so it gets like 4-5 hours of sunlight at best, and it might be nearly October, but it's still over 30° every day, that's like 90 for yankees I think. I water it every day since it's hot and dry around here, but I try to merely keep the soil moist. Should I be worried?

>>5057721
Looks like 3-4 of them. It's easy to separate if you want, but since it's your first, probably don't.
It will most likely die from thrips, very small black pests. If you can get your hands on a systemic pesticide spray, get that.

Make sure that whatever pot you put it in has good drainage, holes at the bottom. Water pooling up at the bottom will rot and kill roots.
Deliciosa likes to get a bit dry towards the end, so rather than watering on a schedule, look at the soil, bright = dry. Look at the soil deeper as well, just squeeze the pot and lift out. It's most likely rootbound as well, roots pile up and get no soil/water. Don't repot into a too large pot, it will retain too much water and depending on the soil/potting medium, the rot will creep up on you.

Deliciosa is also a climbing plant, give the stems a support which the air-roots can cling onto. The distance between each node, the section the leaf is attached too, will give you an indicator on how much more light it wants. Very short, like 2cm between is great, if you're getting like 10cm, desperately needs more light.

Saffron takes a while to bloom, so you probably wont see it first year (depend on your bulb health.) Mine got fucked over by winter aphids but they are still growing.
You dont have to be so on the nose about the soil, just buy a bag of cactus mix and that should be enough. Get some slow release fertilizer don't overwater during winter. SInce you're in newyork you'll probably be fine since you have a longer cold season than down here.

Why u say it will die from thrips?

>>5058283
Because they are a plague. If you see one, they have most likely already laid 300+ eggs and it spreads like a wildfire.
If you're not on top of it with a systemic pesticide across all plants, it's a goner.

I have considered that, but the widow already has a radiator beneath it so I am concerned about overheating if I did try that. Room temps seem to be stable around 20-22°C, not including potential temp difference in the box or plastic bags (but with windows being a naturally cool heat sink it might balance that aspect out). My main worry though is lighting and the inevetible transplanting. My mother who does a lot of gardening thinks the south facing window of my house will be enough for the seedlings and eventually plants, but I have seen articles here and there saying that grow lights are recommended over the period of autumn or winter for chilis with a minimum of 3000lm for flowering/fruiting.

My other concern with transplanting is down to the fact that I am thinking of doing a stacked pot setup with fertilizer solution in the bottom cup while the plant is housed in soil inside of the top cup to allow roots to stretch down to the solution. I need to do that around 33 times and I am worried about how big they are all going to get and if it will lead to overcrowding. I can't house them all in a shared square tray because they will compete and strangle themselves to death, but if I keep them in seperate small pots will they stay small and conform to that space? Or will the roots creep out and I will be forced to increase the size pots overtime for each plant?

In an ideal world I would just have one or two chilis and give them massive pot space for their roots to stretch out but instead of that I have 33 lemons to turn into lemonade. Hopefully by some mercy half of them will be duds and fail to germinate.

>>5058469

I live in a humid subtropical area, they may not like the winter, but now they've reached above a meter high.
I water then when the soil is dry.

>>5058746
Soil temp needs to be in the mid to high 80s or you will get extremely shitty germination.

East facing should be fine, it's north facing where it becomes less practical. I don't know too much about indoor climbers but English Ivy would work in a European climate (although the inside of your house should be enough anyway)

Overview of the entire rack. The plants were crippled at one point of time until I adjusted watering and got neem oil and culinex to eliminate all pests

The plants do eat fungus gnats but they still lay eggs
>>5059086
Is that a monstera white or a less white version? I got one of these plants recently, it has more white on its leaves but its small. I will likely put it into a 30 L pot soon, next year it can enjoy the summer outside with my Peruvian cactus and a giant Ficus. Just carrying it up and down the house twice the year is a torture but exercise and worth it for the plants.

Well as an update I actually got shoots. That's my biggest concern sated at this point.

>>5058214
I don't know if I'd call it easy to grow, I actually grabbed them on a whim from baker Creek catalog.
Even if I don't see any flowers I'm just happy to know they're not dying on me despite the pretty heavy rains we've been getting lately.
For the sake of overwintering as I said I was just gonna mulch it deep. All the advice I looked up said pretty much don't water it at all, so I was probably just gonna toss a tarp over it to be doubly sure unless you think that's overkill

>>5059817
It's a thai constellation. The albo strain is more prone to large portions of white.
Monsteras can grow quite large for a small pot. Try and size it up slowly, you often get the roots aim for the bottom, leaving like 70% of the rest of the pot empty of roots.

>Every single other kind of plant that grows in bogs like ferns, sedges, horsetails, orchids, etc, grow really tall though, despite not catching any insects for nutrients

Is the only way to keep carnivores in a naturalistic bog garden to set it on fire every year? Even Pitchers seem like they'll just beat out every other, say sundew by casting them into shade.

Not the Same kind of bog or Part of bog I guess. Depending on continent, climate and amount of ground water influence you can get very different looking bogs.

I've been reading a lot about mycorrhizal networks, nitrogen fixing and cover crops, could this be applied to plants in pots at all? Or is the space genuinely too limited for that kind of thing?

I feel bad for my pinguicula because it never catches any bugs, the only thing that sticks to it is a ton of random dirt and debris.

Can I keep this dumb plant in a bad sometimes and spray the inside of the bag?

>>5063301
Perfect plant for thrips. Get systemic pesticide, regular shit won't hold them off for long. Do the same for any other plants.
Spray them in the shower, in a bag you won't get to the underside of the leaf where thrips thrive.

>>5063302
Fucking hell, I didn't know that. I wasn't waking about pest control but glad you said. How often?

>>5063306
Thrips catches beginners off guards, they're the plague. Keep an eye out if it's them. I think I see one in the photo.
How often depends on the pesticide, mine says it lasts for 8 weeks, but I see thrips in like 4-5.
