| I have a great deal of experience with most tropical foliage houseplants. I am knowledgeable and experienced in the care and needs of many different kinds of houseplants as well as the pests and diseases common to houseplants. I have had experience with most propagation techniques. My specialty is Aglaonema, Ivy and the Marantaceae family, which includes prayer plants, calathea, stromanthe and ctenanthe. I am also knowledgeable and experienced with artificial lighting for plants. I can not answer questions about succulents or cacti and I have had very little experience with flowering plants. I can help identify plants ONLY if you send a picture of the plant with your question. Please feel free to visit my Myspace at http://www.myspace.com/experthouseplants for information and tips on plant care.
I sell plants on e-Bay. Please visit my storefront to see all my e-Bay auctions; http://store.auctiva.com/indoorgardener | On Vacation
