Nice plants. I like your plant shelf also.

Jen, nice pics! What are the names? I think the one on the left is Trifasciata Laurentii. I have this one. What about the one on the right? It looks like Laurentii, but not quite the same? I think this is the offset I just received. Are you able to take a closer shot of the one on the right and post the pic?

Thanks,
GH

Thanks!

GH,

The plant on the left is T. Laurentii. It blooms every year. They both love the full sun, the coloring shows up nicely. The one on the right I think is 'Moonglow.' It has some silver in the leaves. I would post a closer pic but my batteries just died, I have to get more. Maybe in a few days. The plant shelf (I have 2) I bought at Dollar General.

I was just doing a little research on plant #2, turns out it's a Silver Laurentii. Moonglow is very silver, almost white w/no gold edge. It's one of my favorites. I will post a close up pic when I get a chance : )

The Sans on the right is too dark to be 'Laurentii Silver'.
As you know, new leaves on regular 'Laurentii' are silvery and darken with age. Don't know if this is the 'silver' you see. Nice yellow margins on it, but doesn't it look like another 'Laurentii' in person, Jen?

'Moonglow' really should be called it's official name 'Moonshine'. There are at least a dozen other names this Sans is sometimes called besides 'Moonglow', such as 'Moonbeam', 'Silver Moon', 'Moonlight', etc, etc, etc.
It's a short, wide-leaved type, and is quite beautiful when
it's well grown.

Here's a few close up pics of Silver laurentii, or whatever I have.
