Hi Folks,

Just thought I'd share this in case you hadn't thought of it. I've got a few plant situations that need a seep effect to water them. So after a bit of brainstorming I thought "What about a surgical drip?". So I ordered a few from eBay, and here's a photo of me using it to water my Zamioculcas zamiifolia...

It worked really well, and made it much easier to water this hanging beast.

Maybe for Darlingtonia and Cephalotus?

I don't know whether you are growing your Zamioculcas zamifolia in the bathroom with very little light , but it doesn't look very healthy. They are normally a dark green colour. This plant is used a lot in an office plant situation, I used to work with office plants. You really don't need  a fancy seepage system, just ordinary watering will do. Give the plant much more light though and a little feed now and again.

Darlingtonia and Cephalotus don't need fancy watering systems either.

Some people might moan that we have mentioned a non-carnivorous plant in the CP section of the forum, but the forum is a bit quiet at the moment, anything to keep it going.

Hi David,

Do not worry!

You are only seeing part of the plant (mainly the new leaves), and it is only in the shower for watering! I've been an avid plant grower for 40 years, and like to get really involved and creative with it.

I have posted a full photo and some info in the Aroids section.
