Default Re: piscesilim: Ant plants (Read 351 times)

I just got a Dischidia Pectinoides yesterday for RM8. It comes in a hanging shell (apparently imported from Thailand).

I was told by the seller that if the leaves look a bit redish and hardly any pouches , it means it is low on nutriens. Just fertilize it with orgainic fertilizer (2 to 3 balls will do). Not to use the chemical fertilizer (those pink colored balls). I have never tried that yet and don't know whether it is good or bad advise.

Anyway, I am also just starting to learn how to take care of this cute looking plant. The pouches looks like money bags .

Oh. I hope my Ant Plant will gather big ants for me to feed my hungry VFT.
