Mikel’s Plant Posse

I posted in anything about plants, but here seems appropriate…right!? I’m told white or pink leaves actually means she’s happy with the light!? Anyone verify?

    I don’t know but I love your little figurine of what I think is an Asian farmer! Cute

    It’s just based on plant genetics. White leaves is not a signal of how happy the plant is

      Is it a bad thing? My Alexa said she was showing off in a good way

      No it’s not a bad thing. But it could be for that one strand. If there’s no chlorophyll then it will die faster and the vine will eventually die too

      White leaves cannot sustain the plant. They need chlorophyll (the green color in leaves) to grow.

    So all white leaves in any plant means there’s a lack of chlorophyll meaning that while very beautiful there’s no sustainability in them so they will brown and eventually drop off. If it keeps producing the white leaves you can try cutting it back to see if it starts a more growth pattern. I always enjoy them while they last. Hope this helps!

    i love watching my krimson queen grow white leaves, even if they die off quicker due to the lack of chlorophyll. in my opinion i think the leaves are just as beautiful and it does mean it’s getting some good lighting :) thanks for showing off your pictures id love to see the journey!!! 💚🌱

    Yes, typically variegation shows up more with brighter light, because the plant isn't signaling the need for more chlorophyll. My krimson queen is doing this exact thing with all white leaves on one branch. Unfortunately, it won't grow any more leaves with green after that so if it's your only growth point you'll have to chop it back to the point where you can still see green in the stem and then it will push out a new growth point.

      Her vines are pretty long, she’s nearly 45 years old! How much is too much to cut?

      As long as there is a leaf to sustain growth it will always grow back! You can prop the remaining cuttings super easy by cutting out each node and sticking them in a plastic container with some damp moss and forget about them for like 3 months and you'll have all new babies 😁
