Lower Ohioan Simulated Variegation can also be achieved by a liberal application of the high quality broad-spectrum systemic variegaticide foliar spray developed by Monsanto.


Caveat...
This can actually be used successfully if your plant has already drop/shot/produced a grouping/flower/bloom/bunch/raceme.

Wow........I never saw that fantastic comment coming...I am glad you agree.
As with your last comment I have no idea what you are talking about.



This is another link which you might be thinking about.

Never once had the problem that you described with either of the plants.
In fact the 45 degree angle plant below was re potted as is and has lived happily ever after.

Here is the photo of a plant of mine that is at a 45 degree angle.
Seems to be ok.

I think this year I am going to try a Topsy Turvy hanging planter 55 gallon drum size.

I looked for the foliar spray you spoke about on Amazon and could not find it ...you must be pulling my leg.
