Aroids

Here are some pictures of the aroids (Colocasias) I've been growing.  These are definitely not succulents, but they are very interesting and have been drawing more and more of my attention (I may have to expand the scope of this blog...).

"Black Magic"

"Opelu manini"

Noe noted that the water in this container with the Black Magic is really clear.  I'll have to look into this.

Other Plants of Interest

I've been trying to avoid jumping into other plant interest areas (specifically orchids), but I have slowly started expanding into plants that have interactions with insects.  I've been posting on the Ant Plants that I have been growing, but I've also been trying my hand at growing carnivorous plants and I'm doing ok with Drosera.

I've also had Nepenthes, Venus Fly Traps, Saraccenia - but the climate in Ewa Beach is pretty rough in the summertime.  I think I'll stick with the Drosera for a awhile!

Also - I've gotten a couple of new Kalo plants and have gone full into raising them in small water pots.  This variant is "Black Magic" - I've only had it a short while and it has thrown up two flower spikes already.

And I've gotten one other that I'll post on as soon as I can get a picture.
