Barclaya Longifolia 'Green'
Just want to share some joy and discuss the amazing recovering of the tuber of this plant.
Many months again, I thought i lost this plant for good because many of it's leaves are falling apart due to high redox. Therefore, i cut off all the leaves and took out the tuber.
I cut off some parts that are rotten and just dump the remaining tuber back into the gravel hoping for a miracle. There were no "eyes" on the tuber when replanted, but to my amazmement, the plant regenerated itself, and now I have a nice healthy Barclaya Longifolia "green" although it is still a little small!
I find this occurence also amongst some of my cryptocorynes. Just when you thought you remove all the roots and rhizomes, 1 month later, tiny crypts appear out of nowhere again! Really delightful!
Therefore, for those who experience difficulties, do not just discard the plant immediately, give it a chance!
