Lol yes, poor girl.
Yeah I scrapped my 20+ year old palm and kept a pup from her… the mother plant was so spindly and meh yuck looking.
Pretty. Okay I’m gonna go for it then. Especially since the cuttings are doing so well.
My new guy. Found him in bad shape in the back of Lowe’s. I’ve replanted and am trying to revive him. I’ve never worked with a plant like him before.
Oh fun, the “bringing back to life” is pretty exciting.
This guy doesn’t look too shabby!!
I’ve had him 5 days. And I agree he’s doing better I sure do love him! (And I’m so glad I redound this thread).
Haha oh maybe that’s what I am doing…
YES! Grounding is magical!
New addition to my plant family. My first foray into the world of lithops! AKA Living Stones. Native to South Africa and Namibia. Could never find them back east.
I used to dislike them because they look like butts and flowers/new leaves grow out of the “crack”, and the whole thing just gave me the willies. They are also a bit more tempermental than your standard succulent.
But I like 'em now and wanted to try my hand at it. Once again, I love supporting this local garden center. The guys are so nice and helpful. There’s also a golden retriever who “works” there and helps out. A very, very good girl.
And if you do it right, they can eventually grow into arrangements like these:
These are amazing! Never saw them as butts before but now can’t stop seeing butts! Too funny, they are still really great!
I had a pothos in a dark corner of my kitchen on top of the cabinets that got neglected and leggy so I started it over and rooted the cuttings. Today they got a home - I just love this funky pot! I also started some in a hanging planter a while back and filled it in with more rooted cuttings today. Plant therapy is great!
Cute, I have been looking for them here but haven’t had any luck yet. I will live vicariously through you for now!!!
This babycakes keeps amazing me. The care instructions suggest to pinch off as needed but I’m thinking I need to propagate! Or get a bigger planter eventually…
Omg is that the one you got from the plant hospital???
Sure is!!!
She looks fantastic.
3 days in and already flying along…going to have several flowers soon, shortly followed by new growth
They are strange little creatures aren’t they.
