Rose of Jericho - Resurrection Plant/Flower - Selaginella Lepidophylla - Pack of 1 (One) Dried Rose

I really enjoy this plant, and I'm impressed that the plant species is the correct one for the Resurrection plant. It's not really the True Rose of Jerico - that is a different species - but they look so similar I doubt most people would care. I gave one of the two I bought to my daughter so she could show it to her family - she's seen mine. Mine was a really slow starter. I bought a circular glass bowl which I think is too small - so it got the inside of the plant solid green within 24 hours but I'm still struggling with the outer leaves - they just won't green up very well - I've tried to make sure this is getting plenty of distilled water on the outside like I have in the past. It's next to a sunny window and has grow lamps. But I really was impressed with the quality of this plant - none of the ones I've had before greened up this well, but the other species does turn green a little faster. Love this little guy.

The best thing as advertised

I actually put mine in a bowl of distilled water for about 15 minutes. After that I placed it on a bed of pebbles in a somewhat medium size container/bowl. I added distilled water to that, but just enough to cover the pebbles so that the root ball was sitting in water. It was fully opened in about 3-4 hours. If the plant still has brown leaves just mist it with some distilled water. However, you MUST change the water everyday until your plant becomes acculated to it's environment. I'm actually training mine to stay fully submerged in a giant glass goblet. It's beautiful.

While I do love the plant, a powder mold keeps showing up. I use distilled water, change it daily and once a week I let the plant dry out fully. I have had to cut off more than half of the plant due to the mold and dead spots. These spots were almost black upon arrival and never opened up. I'm hoping I can make it bounce back

It’s my first time seeing one so it was interesting. Really cool to experience. The water wicks up the plant opening it.

Did not survive. Not good

I like it

I was flabbergasted by this little plant. I used it on a Sunday morning as an illustration as to how Christ was killed but came back to life & how we who are dead in trespasses and sin but are made alive in Christ when we accepted Him as Savior and Lord! Worked just like it was supposed to.
