Very strange beautiful plant about to die.....
Please help. If you will notice the leaves, they are very thick and waxy and when the plant was healthy (before someone just pulled it up and left it to die) the leaves were SUPER THICK and SUPER WAXY. It didn't even look real. This plant has very small purple flowers. I wish I had a better camera but if someone can look past all the seeds and see the leaves and flowers maybe it can be identified. This plant was on the Gulf Coast beach nowhere near the water but right up against a fire hydron. I would LOVE to save it and would LOVE to know what it is. It's BEAUTIFUL when it's healthy. (looks pitiful right now) Thanks a lot.

I am soaking it in water over night as suggested by Lowe's lawn and garden. Any help would be so appreciated. Leah Last edited by AngelLeah1981; 04-30-2008 at 08:40 PM. |

Don't know what kind of plant that is. Or what it's been through. You haven't said too much about it other than the pics. The people at Loews aren't exactly the people you wanna be getting an opinion from. Most of the time the people that work there know very little about botany/horticulture - plant ID.
Did the plant croak yet? I do know that whe SOME plants seed out or set seed like that it is the end of the line for the plant but that one did look a little on the chlorotic side |
