I got this little guy about a year ago because it reminded me of my trip to Vegas when I went exploring the desert. I wasn’t caring for him properly until I did my research a few months ago. I transplanted it into its current pot with cacti soil and added granulated sand for extra drainage. I stopped watering it and got it its own little grow light since it needs lots of direct sunlight and it seems much happier.

This was a propagation my friend gave me a couple months ago. I’ve transplanted it into a bigger pot and propagated a piece myself and have already transferred it into the same big pot. It’s doing well. I’m going to wait for it to grow more and propagate again to fill the pot better.

Dracaena Marginata (Dragon Tree)

I picked up this baby a couple years ago at a local store. I managed to keep it alive that entire time without ever educating myself on its needs until a few months ago. Most of its life it spent untrimmed and in a dark area of my living room. This tough little guy survived my ignorance! So I would say it makes this plant an easy beginner plant. I learned a few months ago that it needed to be trimmed from the bottom up which I started doing and it started to grow faster. As I wanted it to split off and have two stems off the main one I decided I’d try cutting its top and placed it in water and I continue to water the main stem. I did this a few weeks ago now and I’m not seeing any changes. I’ll admit I’m a bit nervous.

Philodendron Silver Stripe

Picked up a couple weeks ago at local grocery store because it was in sad shape. I trimmed away the affected areas and placed on my window cil closest to humidifier and it has sprouted a new leaf and a new one coming. However the leaf came in yellow and I’m not sure if it’s normal but will monitor progress as I go.

This is my little plant when I first bought it, and now with a new baby leaf! 🌱 I know—when I got her, she was beautiful and had more leaves. But a few days later I noticed she was developing fungus. I had to remove one leaf, and two days after that, another nearby leaf was a bit infected too, so I removed that one as well. Now she’s thanking me with new leaves.🍃

Preventive Plant Care

With the lower temperatures and drier air the spider mites have appeared. Been working on getting it under control all day. My Prayer Plant didn’t show signs of infestation, thank goodness, but decided to wipe the leaves and add the granules hoping to keep it that way. Hope your plants are staying bug free ALERT/WARNING: DO NOT USE ON PLANTS WITH FUZZY LEAVES.

Latest Propagation Project

My friend gave me her Golden Pothos plant which had 20 foot vine with lots of missing leaves. So decided to keep it going by propagating in sphagnum moss and perlite mixed together to form about a two inch layer in bottom of clear plastic lidded containers. I then placed containers with cut plant nodes on a heating pad under grow lights. From this container I planted 11 pots that were 4” wide by 3” deep with five starts in each. All are being donated for fund raising.

I have a house plant addiction

Just sharing some of my favorite spots in the house, all of my bookshelves anywhere that there is a space that has a little bit of sunlight gets a plant. And the shelves over the top of my desk didn’t have enough sunlight so I installed the grill lights. My next project is to add some shelves to the corner of my living room, That’s a little dark, add some grow lights and fill it with plants. ! So much easier than caring for children and a husband. Lol.

sick plant...NOT!

Does anyone else notice that this app says that the plant looks sick every single time you take a photograph of a plant? I’ve picked up plants in greenhouses and taken pictures and it says this plant looks sick. When they’re beautifully grown not sick plants. If I take a new photograph of my plants at home that are all thriving. It says your plant looks sick. And then tries to give you a diagnosis of overwatering. Every single thing that it tries to diagnose is either over or under watering. This app definitely needs some fixes.
