Default It lives!!!!!!!

I can't believe it actually lives...the main plant turned to rotten mush months ago.

Until it becomes obvious as to what it is(trust me, it'll be very obvious once it gets big enough), anyone wanna take a few guesses?

Um I think it's a Ping, is that right bro? Could be one of the moranensis x ehlersiae hybrids...just my two cents...

Sorry guys, its not a VFT, nor does it have anything to do with moranensis or ehlersiae.

Here's a hint: Its a pretty well known species and soon it'll be very obvious, especially what genera it is...plus once the species is revealed, it'll also become obvious why I'm so happy.

I totally agree man! Plants almost never come back for me, even those which are supposed to do so easily from roots, tubers, etc! I was actually about to throw out this dead mushy plant and media when I spotted this guy. For me at least, this one is difficult to get...usually when I try to order the plant from overseas, it either comes as a lump of black mush or it comes looking okay...then after it's potted up, it just dies within 2-3 days and becomes black mush.

Too bad I don't really propagate my stuff or we could make this one into another one of those guess guess thingies haha!

Hahaha...I think maybe you're ordering from the wrong overseas nursery man...because most plants that I order from overseas come okay and if they die later on, its usually the fault of either me, pests/fungus or the weather. Of course, some overseas nurserys consistently send crap quality plants, while others have various other problems(like the plants over used to super high humidity) that result in a quick plant dead.

But this little guy in the pot...even when ordered from a place that usually send good quality plants and no matter where its ordered from, still usually comes as black mush or KOs practically the next day if it came looking okay. To me, this one is really a miracle, heh...
