I think I need an intervention. 😉 I'm up to 242 plants and I just ordered six new cactus and one carnivorous plant, along with my first batch of cactus seeds. 🤦🏼 (In my defense 25 are babies that I've started for my niece and five are ones I'm babysitting. lol). I don't know how I would take care of them all without my Planta reminders. 🥰

Im not far behind ya😁 if it brings you joy and you are able to care for them all- no intervention needed🙌

I'm around that number too. I haven't added all my "duplicates" or starters...I refuse to know the actual #...and I second Christina's comment 😁

Yall just made me feel much better. I’m basically a baby with my 52 pots including starters to trade. That doesn’t include those still growing roots. Just all the pots of my personal collection with a few rooted trade potentials.
