Comment by mo puff on May 13, 2012 at 1:41pm i keep all of my AVs [after re-potting in terracotta], in bowls...just because i guess i am too lazy to pick up the inside AV pot to water the outer reservior pot, ya know? works great for mine.

Comment by Cynthia (Cindy) Zn 7B Tx on May 6, 2012 at 10:29pm Deanna that's what I did with the one in the photo. I set the pot it came in, inside a pot with no drainage. I also put pebbles in the bottom. The AV begin to do better afterwards, and now it is blooming.
Comment by Deanna Bifulco on May 6, 2012 at 8:51pm I love the self watering pots,its the only way I can grow AV. If I can't find them or afford them I take a clay flower pot and put in a bowl or sealed pot. Happy growing......

Comment by Cynthia (Cindy) Zn 7B Tx on May 2, 2012 at 7:37pm The thing that turned mine around was by emulating an AV pot. I let them self water, which increases their humidity, plus they like just the right amount of light. My larger AV bloomed two weeks later after doing the above. My puny one is in a homemade AV pot, and is getting ready to bloom I plan on buying another AV pot, as soon as I go out of town. Our Walmart doesn't carry them.
Mine are hanging in their!! the one in the brandy sniffer is not doing too good.. the white one is having a blast and blooming crazy.. I worry about to much water in the sniffer, but I do not water it to much, just when I see the sides start to dry out.. I may have to take it out if it does not start to improve..
Comment by Cynthia (Cindy) Zn 7B Tx on May 1, 2012 at 6:52pm My puny AV is getting ready to bloom. It's still small, but the leaves are healthier and some of the older not so healthy ones seem to be falling off. I will post a picture when it blooms, I have no idea what the color will be, am hoping for a different color than my pink one.
