Measuring Pot Sizes

OK, here is a really dumb question.

When you measure pot sizes, do you measure the diameter on the bottom of the pot or on the rim? You will get a different result. So is a 5" pot 5" on the...

Thanks for the advice. That's pobably what happened. Knowing how much phrags like water, I guess I wasn't too careful about how I watered. I'll be sure to keep the water out of the new growths...

I'm sorry to say that I think the leaf on the right in the most recent photo looks like it might on its way out too. If the roots are good, the only thing I can think of is that the hydroton is not...

Hi Susan,

I would check the roots right away. I noticed that the other leaves are also pretty dark and reddish. I wonder if the plant is getting too much light. The anthocyanins are the red in...
