Only one day for me. I usually miss them since they open around 11am and are closed by the time I get home.
The flowers are surprisingly large, bigger than a quarter in both cases. They're also really soft (like you can't even feel them if you touch them.)
Small update: Flowers!
Overview
D. menziesii opened all at once
D. indumenta opened its first flower for me. Quite large with 7 petals and interesting white fluff in the center (I'm no biologist sorry)
I only have a few species so I'm not too sure either, but I can take a whiff when the time comes.
Edit: Are these photos too big? I can scale them down more.
Part of my interest in these is that they do well for me outdoors year round. Can't say the same for my poor neps haha (oh god).
I'll try to add a couple photos in the next few days as my menziesii and indumenta are blooming soon.
Shameless plug: I'm looking for more tubers from anyone who...
I realize I don't post very much here. I've recently moved and will probably find more time for my plants. Anyway this will be a (hopefully) long-running thread about the tuberous dews I have. I don't intend this to be very informative about how I grow them since I just put them outside all...
I've had this happen on multiple occasions with my neps. If anyone's interested I can try to take some pictures tomorrow to show you.
Let me clarify; in all cases the main growth point had become prostrate and produced basal shoots on their own accord. I haven't laid a pot down to force the...
I grow all my neps outside. I would imagine in SF you would have no problem growing this outside. I would watch out during winter for cold and wet nights so that your plant doesn't rot.
As said above I would ease the transition so the plant doesn't go into shock too badly.
My girlfriend does this on purpose to my neps because "they're fun when they pop."
I just make sure to make her wait until they're just about done before she does it.
