Re: Epiphyllum has white fungus like growth?
I believe mine is Euphorbia Trigona. I've got a couple o new starts I cut off of Fred last time I was at the house. I'll take some pictures as soon as they're growing a bit better and post them.

Re: Epiphyllum has white fungus like growth?
Just thought I'd pop in and update on the Epi, Fred and the numerous cuttings taken from the Epi. Grannie wasn't too keen on spraying insecticides on plants that never go outside, so I had her try a recipe using black tea, a bit of dawn dish soap, and water. The recipe said you could use it as a roo...

It's a rather ancient digital p.o.s. Gateway DC-M40, made in 2003 :shock: It has good days and bad days depending on how recently it was used and how many pictures it gets used to take. When I took the aloe pictures it hadn't been used since about a week before Xmass when I used it for the Secret Sa...

We had a little cluster of cacti growing in our driveway when I was a kid that would go kind of a ruddy purplish color when the cold got to them. We're talking winters where they'd be buried under a foot of snow most of the season. They looked about like that every time it thawed after the snow had ...

Epiphyllum has white fungus like growth?
Uncles monster has been growing this strange fluffy white fungus like material. I wasn't aware until I went to visit a week or so ago. I'm kinda scared for the plant as the areas that had the thickest coating of the stuff have started to die off. Some parts of the plant which were big and healthy la...

I got grannie to get a cell phone picture this morning of the big guy. The larger size image shows him a lot better but the forum shrunk the picture. My African Milk Tree can be seen on the left with some of the Epi stringing along behind it. http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL744/11597338/23989093/4...

The Monster: This is the plant I mentioned in my first post. It's an aloe of some sort or another. There were three big plants in the pot when it came home, I kept the largest of the three drooping, mushy, dying aloes in the original pot and re-potted the rest. They're all healthy as horses now and ...
