I once had a beautiful plant in my garden. It was given to me by a church friend. I took it home and place it under the edge of the side porch away from direct sunlight.
After some time, it began to grow beautifully and was doing very well. The leaves multiplied and the colour of the leaves grew to deep pink or red.
It even flowered and I was hoping to see new plants appear. But it was not to be. My happiness was short-lived. Sometime happened to this plant.
The leaves started to droop and the plant looked sick. It could be due to the excess rainwater from heavy rain during the wet season. I moved the pot away from the edge but it was too late. The plant didn't recover. So it was farewell to my lovely Aglaonema Red Cochin plant. I am not sure whether I will get another plant in the near future.

Hello Nancy, pretty plant. I like the leaf colors. Great fence photos. Enjoy your day and the week ahead!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Eileen. Have a great and enjoyable day!
DeleteSad to hear that you lost this beautiful leaved Aglaonema! Hope you'll find a new one!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Riitta. I am not sure yet about getting a new plant. Have a beautiful day!
DeleteWhat a bunch of fences.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tom. Have a wonderful day!
DeleteIt's sad to lose such a pretty plant. I'm not familiar with this variety, but would have loved to see it bloom.

Thank you, Francisco. Have a wonderful day!
DeleteSuch a shame about the plant. It certainly was a very pretty plant, hope you manage to find another one. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mamas. I may not look for another plant. I have more than enough plants in my garden to care for. Just have to wait and see. Have a great day too!
DeleteI think the red ones are more difficult to grow. The same happened to mine but the common speckled green ones survive well. But of course looks-wise they are no comparison to the reds.:)
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear. I think you are right. My speckled green ones are doing very well without much care. Have a lovely day!
DeleteSo sad. The plant was lovely while it lasts.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mun. At least it flourished and I get to enjoy its beauty. Have a great day!
DeleteCan feel your sadness losing this plant
ReplyDeleteThank you, Libby. I feel more sad because it was gifted to me. Have a beautiful day!
DeleteI'm sorry about your plant that didn't survive. I've had many over the years that didn't survive. I was always sad when they died.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your fences.
Have a fabulous day Nancy. ☺
Thank you, Sandee. I was so happy to see it doing so well and didn't expect to lose it. Have a great day!

DeleteSad to hear that you lost this beautiful plant. I am happy you have still some photos of it. Love your fences. Asbestos sheet fencing is forbidden in our country.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jedidja. I meant to post the photos earlier but couldn't make it before the plant died. We found this asbestos sheet fencing in the same village. Have a great day!
