The leaf of Optimara Romance and the tiny baby that sprouted from the side of the leaf have died. The Optimara Romance 3 baby has also died. That leaves one healthy baby. The original plant itself is also needing some help. Most of the all pink leaves have gone limp and fallen off, but the center crown with its few mostly green leaves is still healthy. I decided to take it out of the big pot and repot it into a smaller one. The roots and crown look ok, but I have it in a domed box on the light shelf. Hopefully it will recover!
OP105.1 has finally bloomed! And, disappointingly, it is another plant of Texas II. So it was repotted and was put downstairs with the extras. The extra plant of Chico was also moved downstairs.
The newly potted baby of Ness’ Fantasy Gold didn’t make it.
There are buds on White Madonna 2 on the light shelf. And Ballet Snowcone 4 is blooming and Milky Way Trail has its first tiny flower with several more buds. Irish Flirt is still full of buds, and none have opened yet!
Repotted Emerald Love and S. grandifolia No. 237 to ceramic two-part pots from the smaller 6 oz containers they were in. Silverglade Dolls has been brought upstairs to the window light shelves.

The world has zillions of plants, but I am always sorry when a plantlet doesn’t make it. Yours in the pics seem to look really healthy.
