My spider plant , she has been with me through it all, and has been for five years!

Gonna say my fiddle leaf fig, Mr. Figglesworth! I’d always had ok luck with plants – never knew what I was doing, but they were living, so I figured I was doing something right. Mr. Figglesworth was the only one to say “Nah, what you’re doing isn’t going to work for me.” 😆

He was dropping leaves left and right and looked super sad. (Although, the awkwardness and leafless/hairless look best suits his name. Lol)He was the first plant I truly set out to research and figure out what he needed to thrive!

I switched his pot, refreshed his soil mix, got special FLF fertilizer and adding lighting – he started pushing out new leaves like crazy… and hasn’t stopped!! It’s such a good feeling knowing I played a part in that! Because of him, I’ve since taken the time to research all of my plants, and they’re now all living their best lives! 🥰

The difference in node space from the bottom of the tree to the top is wild!

That’s like picking your favorite child!! 😆 I’ll say that I’m very thankful for my two Jade plants that I’ve managed to keep alive and HEALTHY! Jade plants remind me of my mom. She always had one and would get one for me which I’d inevitably thought unintentionally would kill! She’d be pretty impressed with me now! Hopefully she sees us from her cozy cloud in heaven! I did it Mom! 😍
