As i look through my greenhouse i have noticed that my Mirabilis var. Globosa is much paler than the rest of my plants. All the plants were moved into the greenhouse a few months ago and have adapted well. Although my "Viking" has grown by leaps and bounds, and is now begining to show signs of quite a few pitchers forming, I am concerned about the veiny look of the leaves. I know with my brugmansias that's a sign of a nutrient deficiency. Humidy is always high, temps are in the lowland - intermediate range, media is 60/40 long fiber sphagnum and perlite. Plant is in a bright light area but the grow cover on the greenhouse diffuses any direct sunlight. Conditions should be right for this lowlander, and although its growing well, i have concerns about the overall appearance of the lack of chlorophyll in the leaves...
Here is the plant:
