Homalomena is not a common household name, but once the news gets out about how easy this species is to care for, that might change! The variety 'Selby' has remarkable mottled foliage that gently displays varying degrees of green. The leathery leaves ovate-lanceolate leaves form from the center of the plant and arch outwards, developing into a well-rounded shape. This uncommon houseplant is relatively easy to care for as they are low light tolerant, but give them plenty of warmth and indirect sunlight during the growing season so they can produce new growth. If you see the foliage wilt, it's time to give it water. Overall, homalomena is similar in growth habit to an aglaonema, and they both have similar care requirements (minus the water requirements!).

 

An actual under-story plant, homalomena can tolerate lower light conditions in your home. Consider placing it where it receives more indirect light during the growing season for optimal growth. The difference between outdoor shade and low interior light is massive so try to give all of your indoor plants as much access to natural light as humanly possible! That said, they should be kept away from hot direct light as the leaves may scorch.

It is important to keep homalomena well watered during its active growing period, but be sure to let the water drain from the pot after watering to prevent root rot. Cut way back on watering during the winter months and allow the soil to dry out partially between watering.

You may need to transplant your homalomena every year or so, depending on how fast it grows. We recommend using a soil mixture that is rich in organic matter, has good drainage, and is light and loose. Most bagged potting soil will be fine, but avoid potting mixes that contain moisture retaining crystals, and they can keep the soil wet for long periods, which can cause root damage.

Temperatures between 60-90℉ are ideal, and they can withstand temps as low as 40℉. However, these tropical houseplants love warmer conditions, so the warmer, the better!

Homalomena prefer high humidity, so place this houseplant in a spot that has a lot of moisture in the air. Keep in mind that in many areas, winter air can be dry, so the plant may need a helpful boost from a humidifier or a pebble tray with water to help increase the dampness and offset a dry environment.

To encourage leaf and root development, fertilize homalomena twice a month during the growing season with a complete liquid fertilizer at diluted to 1/4 the recommended strength. Do not fertilize during the winter, or when there is no active growth.

Perfect to make extension cords
Size: 20FT, Style: 16AWG-3C
I have several portable tungsten work lights on stands. They product a high level of light which is great for work in a place without adequate lighting. I can move the lights around and get the best lighting. The problem is that they have short cords. This wire, the 16AWG (with the addition of a plug and a receptacle) will solve that problem. The outer jacket is rugged enough to handle daily use and it is light enough that it is not a bother to carry several to the work site. With a rating of 13.1 amps it maybe a little light to use as a replacement cord for power tools, but this wire does come in several other sizes including 14AWG which should work on most tools.

nice 3 strand 16 gauge wire
Size: 20FT, Style: 16AWG-3C, Size: 20FT, Style: 16AWG-3C
This review is for a 20 foot sample of 3 stranded 16 gauge wire. 300V capacity. Using a multimeter, I got a resistance reading of 0.2 ohms across each of the three strands (at roughly 68 degrees Farenheit). Specs say 26 strands of 0.254 mm Tinned copper wire are inside each cable. Good flexibility in the covering.

Just what was needed
Size: 20FT, Style: 16AWG-3C
This worked great to extend an electrical line a short distance further than the one that was attached to it. No issues encountered.

Good quality but no more flexible than average cords.
Size: 10FT, Style: 16AWG-3C
The internal wires are good quality with a decent number of strands, but the outer cover is standard pvc, tough but no more flexible than any other cord product. Not suitable for my use on a hand power tool, a rubber cover is better.
