Purchased two Ceropegia simoneae’s last year, I’m sure it was from Bunnings.
Gave one to my daughter.
Daughter has it growing really well inside her house.
Thought this Ceropegia ampliata that I have looked good growing on a loop.
So, decided to make a loop. Had some wire mesh that was being used for sweet peas. A length was cut off. Placed the ends between two pots. Decided this was better than pushing the wire into the soil where the plants roots are concentrated.
Sweet peas have finished. So cut off a length with three strands.
Wire mesh secured between two pots.
The middle one is slightly recessed so potting mix can cover the inside pot.
Will get some plant clips to avoid using the clothes pegs. Thought it looks so good, did some more Ceropegia ampliata’s.
Interesting, if the Ceropegia ampliata stems touch the potting mix, they grow roots. Just right for growing into another plant. Will cut the stem later. Hope the same for the C. simoneae.
Another picture, with C. ampliata.
Ends.
That is so clever! Looking at the picture I thought that you had some steel offcuts linked by zip ties. Thanks for posting those extra pictures, it's so much clearer now on how you mounted the round frame above the plastic basin.
Looking forward to your next update.
