Default Re: Need hep in ID this too

Yes that's superbum allright. As you can see there are tiny hairs covering all over the shield frond. The hairs actually help dispell any water from wetting the shield frond and at the same timehelps reflect away excessive lightsource.

The 2nd mistake is you are about to do is placing it outside exposed to shine and rain. This plant hates wet feet. Prior my discussion with Wanna, I was told only to water once a week and always put it under shelter. Never expose it to rain.
Hope this helps.
