Propagation progress from April 9th to today š I honestly try not to hover over them but I canāt help it. I check everyday. 2 other leaves didnāt quite make it but Iām really happy with the ones that did especially since itās my first time propagating anything!
Got new plants few days ago how do u think they look? Donāt mind the bunny in the backround š
I wish I could send a video of how glittery this leaf is, but this picture will have to do
My new lemon lime maranta and my variegated string of hearts is getting long enough to start training it upwards. I was going to let it hang but someone told me itās meant to grow up, otherwise the hearts are upside down! Good to know!
This is Disco, my new turtle vine plant. I had no idea how sparkly they get in the sun!!
My plants are taking a vacation to see the sun in the living room.
Blue candle cactus was my first ever plant, Iāve had it for 3 years and itās still healthy! Definitely would recommend to anyone who canāt keep a plant alive.
RIP šŖ¦ Lisa š I got Lisa about 1 year ago. A beautiful dracaena Lisa. It was my first and favorite plant. I loved her. As a first time plant mom, there was so much I didnāt know about plants, and I learned the hard way. Yesterday I declared death officially. I had been hanging on to her with the hope she would get better. But I checked her roots, and she was very dead, root rot at the deepest level, squishy roots. I learned what root rot is now! A few things I learned along the way: - Watering: I was watering my dracaena almost every week. During the first 6 months. She was fine, because it was summer/fall. During winter, I kept watering the same wayā¦ so I obviously gave her too much water, so she got sick. - Repotting: Not knowing what I was doing, I attempted to repot her in february of this year. Did everything wrong, got rid of very healthy roots and messed the whole thing upā¦ shouldve done the research before and not after. Lesson learned. - Soil: my third mistake, and probably what ended up killing Lisa, using normal soil potting mix, and not adding substrates to increase drainage. So even with new soil, my plant was holding a ton of water, on top of its already damanged rooting system, which I messed up haha. Nothing I did helped my plant get better, instead everything I attempted made it worse. But, messing up in every wayā¦ I learned a ton of how to do things rightā¦ so next time, it wonāt happen again. Found this amazing youtube channel called the Swedish Plant guys, and boyā¦ they know it all! Sharing this hear for all those new plant moms and dads, save your plants by not doing everything wrong like I did. Im rooting for you! Before and after pics below š„²š„² RIP Lisa š
If anyone has been wanting a Tai, BWH Plant Co has them for $19!!!
My new ZZ Zenzi!!!
Is this a healthy looking cactus? š
Brought her to work with me to get repotted! I find sheās a slow grower..
New monstera leaf is jealous that Iām gardening outsideā¦.š
Iāve had this Monstera Siltpecana for less than 2 weeks and I canāt believe how much itās grown since! Thereās 2 new leaves on it and one is already ready to unfurl and the other is at the tip of the vine.
My monstera FINALLY has a new leafš¤©
Plants after dark!š¤šŖ“
Good afternoon, Planta residents! Last night I was faced with every plant parentsā worst nightmare as I am officially at desk space capacity. Thinking of investing in a green house. Any thoughts on which species should join the family next? -thekintsugidav
Is my maranta worth saving? She did grow a new leaf and also is attempting another one. But the plant looks very floppy and is starting to yellow .. thoughts?
Found this beauty with a bunch of others at Home Depot $40 though.
Hello plant peeps! I just got this variegated wax ivy for my b day. Iāve never had one before and would love any tips! The top is quite tangled and I was wondering if I should try and untangle it. It has an all right pot situation right now but in the future I will need to repot and deal with the tangle. Thanks so much!!!
