Both this Burle Marx and these naked root pots have quickly been climbing my list of favorite things. Love seeing plants wild out in spring and summer 😍

I bought this jewel orchid online for $30 and I'm the queen of cheap so that usually doesn't happen. I had to repot it today and I had to use a mix that I hadn't used before, moss, perlite and orchid back. I was so worried because I know they can be "picky" but I think it came out ok. We'll see. That little one separated so I potted it up for my niece.

Super fun to build a terrarium today at Roosevelt Terrariums Portland,OR. Totally recommend.

I got this plant stand for a my birthday a couple weeks ago and it came with grow lights and I absolutely love it! Plus, my plants add a green touch to it, which absolutely ties it all together! ❤️ (I had to stand on top of my bed to get it all in lol and don’t mind the Marshalls bag 😔)

Propagating spider plants 🪴 pups! The mother plant is huge!

The saffron is about as big as its gonna get this time of year. I lost one slender shoot from fungus after a thorough watering with collected rain. More perlite is needed as 30% sand isn't draining fast enough.

So excited to show off my first ever air plant! Look at the before and after soaking in water!

I fell in love with this FLF before I even knew what FLF stood for. I finally went and picked him up today. Obsessed 😩💕

The propagation worked! I am beyond happy, I was so nervous to cut my adult Thai con but the prop grew roots in a week I waited a little longer and then today I potted it! I’m hoping to sell her but she is so beautiful I may have to keep her!
I love plants
I would love to see everyone’s strings of…. I have a string of bananas, a string of fishhooks, a string of pearls, and a string of hearts!!!

We went to our local farmers market a few weeks back and, as always, we visited the plant shop. That’s where I found this little guy I call ‘French Fry.’ I was shocked that I found it!! It’s getting repotted this weekend so we will see what kind of growth it gives off!

A couple of my newest additions because I went back to the store for one and then the next day I had to have the other 😆😆

Three years later, it’s finally blooming!! 🌸 This African Violet started from a single leaf propagation. Seeing its very first flowers makes the wait completely worth it! 💜

Today is my airplants watering day and I thought I’d share my routine to show off how amazing airplants can be; hopefully even convince some people to get some interesting ones. There’s no science to it, I just follow some basics. First, I know it’s time to water because the trichromes all over the plants will turn silvery instead of a fuzzy gray. I used distilled water only and every second watering is with a very weak dilution of maybe 10% the recommended strength of orchid fertilizer. All I do is fill a huge bowl about halfway with water, put the smaller plants in first and work my way to the largest last as they’ll tend to float, then I have to use a decorative pot from one of my other plants to hold them down, and top the water up to cover them. I like to do this first so I can do all my other plant care while they soak, typically 20-90 minutes. Once I’m done with the rest of my plants or am waiting for pots to stop dripping, I go take the airplants out of the water and place them upside down to dry the crown and prevent crown rot. It takes maybe 10 seconds for my 4 smallest to dry out and about 30-60 minutes for the biggest to dry. I don’t treat any of them differently except for when I first get them, they’ll have a soak in water mixed with some special soap, fungicide, and StressCoat. After they’ve all dried I return them to their displays and leave them be other than a misting here just for funsies. These photos are all from this watering session and in order are: 1: dry plants asking for water, especially the ionanthas and recurvata 2: freshly placed in the water, still slightly washed out 3: almost 100 minutes later they’re all super green and don’t float anymore, except the setacea, he’s in rehab so he always floats from having been abused in his last home 4: drying the plants with the crowns down over a paper towel I have 16 air plants of only 8 species but have another 12 new species on the way. We can also see my xerographica has flowered, he had 2 but one of them tend to die out to allow the other to take more nutrients.

New growth is so rewarding.

What do we think is going on with her? She was just repotted and her roots are fine. But her leaves are VERY flimsy feeling and, as you can see, droopy.

My Lily babies have finally bloomed and boy are they gorgeous! 🎉🌸 Turns out, they’re Stargazer lilies 😊.
