# Currently sitting in the living room surrounded by plants because…

Currently sitting in the living room surrounded by plants because 25mph gusts just tore through out of nowhere and I had to scramble to move 50ish potted plants in from the porch 🙃 Whew that was crazy! I’m glad I was sitting on the porch when it started or else I might have gotten clued in by shattering pots instead!

They ripped through here last night out of nowhere \& knocked one of my jade plants right off the table onto her face!

Oh no! I’d rather pots break than when the plants take damage that’s hard to propagate 😢 Especially slow-growers like jade

she came away COMPLETELY unscathed — not her first time falling flat on her face (that’s why she grows in this fun shape lol), she was prepared for impact lol

my jades grow fast as lightning!

Glad your plants are mostly okay!

Wow! Good quick thinking, at least you get to enjoy a jungle night inside

I still have about 60 plants left to move back outside since Hurricane Beryll! So tired!
