Geoff Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Have a 1 tall plant that is not growing for some reason... about 5 years old. Makes weird leaves. But alive non-the-less. Planted 6" from Dypsis baronii which is totally fried to a crisp, and not a burnt leaf on the psamophila. Hmmm 27F was the exposure, for about 5+ hours.
