What is it?
Leaves aren't brown - just dry and srop off when touched. Fine roots are
poppin out of soil - due for a repot tomorrow! "Kay Easton" wrote in message ... In article , Lee BARRASS lee@[nospam] writes The other week I bought a plant at B&Q. The tag has gone missing so I don't know what it is. It's like a small orange tree (30cm high ish) with small orange fruit on, although it's not quite the same as the one they are selling at the moment for Mothers' Day. Solanum? Are the fruit smooth and marble sized? No. Marble sized but more like a minature orange. Citrus mitis? Brown leaves doesn't sound good. Have you kept it *too* moist? Where have you kept it? Any fine spiders webs on the tips of the shoots? Any round brown scales on the underneath of the leaves? -- Kay Easton Edward's earthworm page: http://www.scarboro.demon.co.uk/edward/index.htm |

How about Calamondin? I have seen some of these in garden centres recently along with mini lemons.

Thats it! I think.

Well, I guess if people give snotty and ill thought replies , which I guess were meant to be *whitty*, like those in this thread ( surprises me given the usual standard of response here - shame on you all!) then I guess you can expect the OP to be upset. Surely a simple, sorry this group doesnt take binary pictures and *I* cant see it would be better. Some of us on the other hand do not have machinery which is floorewd by binary and do not have net nanny ISP's who remove them for us! I could see the picture. I reckon a lot could and are afraid to say because of the silly and in some cases downright nasty replies saying so is likely to cause Unfortunately I am sorry, I dont know what the plant was, it looked like a form of wild fennel to me. I could identify the bamboo cane, the leg ( kneee down) and the bag of compost / irish peat? next to it.

Surely a simple, sorry this group doesnt take binary pictures and *I* cant see it would be better. I doubt whether the OP cares a damn whether *I* can see it. The point I was making was that several ISPs trim off binaries so that the OP was posting in a way that made sure that a good number of those from whom he was seeking advice were not in a position to be able to give that advice. If it were only me that couldn't see it, it wouldn't matter in the slightest, from the pov of the OP getting his answer. Some of us on the other hand do not have machinery which is floorewd by binary and do not have net nanny ISP's who remove them for us! Well, great! So you don't need to pay attention to established conventions. -- Kay "Do not insult the crocodile until you have crossed the river" |
