Thought I’d share a few more of my older plants. The three Peace Lily’s started 15 years ago from one 6 inch pot. They are all so pot bound that I will be taking them apart and saving 3 good pieces to refill the pots with. The palm tree will be 17 years old in August. It came in a small container garden and was about 6 inches tall. It’s almost 6 feet now. The big picture is in front of a fireplace we no longer use. All these plants were my first ones between 17 & 15 years ago. My last one today is my Thanksgiving cactus that I’ve had now for 10 years from a neighbor moving to Germany and wanted me to have it. It was in a 6 inch pot. The one blooming pic is from last fall. More pics to come as I get to them. Enjoy.

    All your plants look great!😍 These varieties died at my house many years ago. I can’t raise a Kentia palm or peace lily to save my life!😁 My elusive all green spider plant transplanted itself behind my air conditioner equipment outside gaining its independence before the mother plants died many years ago. I have a struggling cactus in a 4 inch pot that hates me. 🤣

      I’m so sorry you’re having trouble with your plants. All I’ve ever done is follow the Planta schedule for all of them. Not that Planta is perfect but honestly my plants are thriving because of this app. Now I must also tell you that I have many plants in the graveyard as well so not all my plants have done well. About your cactus, I actually started putting mine outside 6 years from the beginning of June until mid October, sitting under a tree that gets a small amount of direct sun ☀️ n the am.

      For some reason my first comment posted before I finished and then it wouldn’t let me edit it so just to finish what I was saying about your cactus if you live somewhere that you could put it outside in a semi shaded area maybe that would boost it and get it growing and blooming like crazy, just like mine has. Good luck and keep me posted.
