My Valentine

10 years ago

I have a "My Valentine" which has only grown about 2" in three years. Anyone know if this is typically a slow grower?
Thanks.

brighty,
my plant grows similar to Daisy Wilcox. 2" in 3 yrs is super slow. Has the plant bloomed for you, or did u purchase it in bloom?

Might need a larger pot.

It was blooming 3 yrs ago when I bought it with three tips. Still has 3 tips so it did not branch out where it bloomed. I see an inflo is forming now for the first time since I bought it.

Yes a bigger pot is an excellent idea. I will wait until after the blooming is over so as not to disturb the blooming. Thanks for the good advice!

I think MV is supposed to be pretty compact/slow growing. My new (grafted) plant has very tightly spaced leaf nodes.

Please post pics when it blooms!
