Hello my loves 🫶🌿 Happy Tuesday #TheWateringHole , or should I say, happy #untidytuesday 😏 (It’s ALWAYS #untidytuesday at my house, ha ha ha! 😂😄…🥺😭😭 ) It’s been hot here, the last few days (80° F 🥵) and we are all looking forward to rain 🌧️ ☔️ tomorrow and in the 60°’s again, ahhh 🧘‍♀️. Plus that means I might not have to water anything outside 🤞🤞 I’ve been putzing around, doing planty chores, and checking on all my props from @IdPlantThat 🥰 Practically EVERYONE has been doing great 🙌 My new favorite method of propagating!: Perlite + a ziplock bag + my own hot air 🌬️ I live in a cool, wet climate, as most of you know already, and I had horrible luck with sphag. It always molds 🦠 instantly, or at least, within 12 hours 😵‍💫 I love this perlite + bag method because it is not inducive to mold growth, roots grown in perlite are more like soil roots already, and each bag is its own humidity box AND quarantine station! How are you all doing today? What’s your favorite prop method? 🥰🥱🫶 ⏱️Want to be notified of these posts when they come out?

Can anyone help me figure out what’s going on with my alocasia poly?? I originally had two corms in one pot together and they did great for months, but the smaller one seemed to get root rot. After cleaning, trimming any mushy roots and repotting, one of the leaves on the bigger plant looks like this: Is this never ending rot?? Someone pls help!! #sickplants #AlocasiaAddicts #RootRot #AlocasiaPolly #aroid

@vvvelo you’ve created a monster!! I found 3 lithops at the garden center the other day and I’ve always told myself if I found one, I would try again. I don’t know how those other 3 succulents got here. Mysterious 🤔 Anyhoo for you and anyone else who is familiar with lithops care, I types up some notes for myself and I just want to make sure these are correct! I think @stephonicle Steph might have some too? And @princesspitstop and @MamaLinne @ZestyWhiteghost @CactusAdjacent 🥰 #TheWateringHole #brunchataudreys #happyplants #hoya #Greggers #greggang #newgrowth #prayerplant #hoyahangout #OrchidLovers #Orchid #TradescantiaNanouk #CalatheaCorner #AlocasiaAddicts #SucculentSquad #CactusClique #BegoniaBunch #DreamMachine #MonsteraMonday #Philodendron #tipsandtricks #EcoTherapy #crazyplantlady #PlantingOnABudget #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantTherapy #PlantAddict #plantfriendsarethebestfriends #adhdplantlovers #horticulturaltherapy #plantnerd #LithopsArmy #lithops #SplitRock

New plants came in! I had a voucher in a store, back from when I ordered an Alocaisa Flying Squid from them and it came in mangled. This time I bought an Alocasia Antoro Velvet, I may be a bit too impatient to wait for my babies to grow lol An Alocaisa Sulawesi Green Carpet. I wanted a wnd chance with em, i want to use one in a terrarium Rhaphidophora Puberula Variegata, i feel like it would also go well in a terrarium ngl. My snake son is gonna be excited about new plants for him. And a Passiflora Edulis! #newplants #alocasiaaddicts #Rhaphidophora

Hello my loves! 🥰🌿 It’s a wet drizzly 🌧️☔️💦🌲🌲🌲Wednesday here in the PNW, and I had roughly 1 billion pounds of library books to return today. But luckily my library is only a three minute walk, I had my trusty wagon, (complete with a VERY classy 💅🏼 clear trash bag to protect my books 📚 ), and I just adore walking through the mini two-acre nature preserve that sits right next to the library. 🌲🌲🪾🌲🪵🌿 I have a book recommendation for those that have gotten interested in botany. I ended up buying the book because I love it so much. Botany in a Day, by Thomas J. Elpel Instead of learning plants one at a time, this book helps you recognize and learn the PATTERNS of the FAMILIES of the plants. 🪴 Once you have the families down, you could potentially recognize a plant in the wild, and know something about it, even if you don’t know its name! There’s also many pages of quick guides, to things like flower terms 🌻 leaf shapes 🍃and plant family keys 📖. I can’t recommend it enough! Plus one more pic of my new geogenanthus poeppigii because I love him so much 🥰🥰🥰 How are you all doing today? Are your plants waking up yet or do you still have sleepyheads? 🥰🥱🫶 ⏱️Want to be notified of these posts when they come out?

Hi! Yesterday I bought this beautiful Alocasia Macrorrhiza for a really good price, and I just wanted to show it to you and ask for some tips. I noticed it had some white mealybugs and spider mites. Yesterday I cleaned the leaves with water, sprayed them with a nettle purin solution, and also removed some of the mealybugs using a cotton swab dipped in alcohol. After that, I sprayed the whole plant with the nettle mix. When i bought it it was all wrapped in a net that i guess didn’t help her I’d love to know if you have any tips! #HappyPlants #help #AlocasiaAddicts #Alocasia

Hello my loves! 🥰🌿 Happy Friday!! How has your week been? ♥️ I had a magical, or religious experience (pick what you like 😁) in the forest 🌲🌲🌲a couple days ago, and am still feeling the benefits. 🧘‍♀️☮️😌 Powell Butte Nature Park is only 6 minutes away from me and I’m kicking myself that I haven’t spent every single weekend there! (I’d only ever been there as a late-night college reveller OR more recently, barely inside the borders with elementary children for a picnic) 🥴 I can’t believe I didn’t know the trails through the forest existed, and we only did maybe a quarter of them. 😱🌲🪾🌲🌲🪺🍄🌲🌸 As we got under the canopy, everything became suddenly hushed, except for the songbirds and ravens. Lovely old trees covered with moss and ferns. Trilliums on the forest floor and pacific wrens flitting around. Here’s some pictures for your perusal of my new favorite happy place. ☺️ And tell me: what is YOUR happy place? (aside from our indoor gardens of course) What natural place do you prefer or would choose to go if you could? 🥰🌸🌲🪴🌊❄️☀️🌵🌴 ⏱️Want to be notified of these posts when they come out?

Ahhhh thank you so much @vvvelo !!! 🤯🤩🥳 My succulents from Volodymyr’s giveaway arrived and I couldn’t be more thrilled! Look at all these BÉBÉS 😱😱 #vladimirgivessucculentsaway #volodymyrgivessucculentsaway #vvvelogivessuccs I might need a little help with identifying, if anyone can assist, as the only one I think I know, is the jade, and then perhaps that’s a walking aloe? 😂 Or is it climbing? 🤔 I am determined to do right by these cuties! I live in a predominately wet, cool climate (except for a couple months of dry summer) so if anyone could tell me if they think this substrate is a good mix for succulents in my climate (that tends to make things stay damp for longer)? -1/2 my own mixed substrate (which is 1/3 coir, 1/3 orchid bark, 1/3 perlite) -1/2 bonsai jacks gritty mix Thank you again @vvvelo ! What a wonderful thing to do, it’s so appreciated ♥️ I was so excited opening the box, and I just can’t stop staring at them 🥰🥰🤩😍 #TheWateringHole #brunchataudreys #happyplants #hoya #Greggers #greggang #newgrowth #prayerplant #hoyahangout #OrchidLovers #Orchid #TradescantiaNanouk #CalatheaCorner #AlocasiaAddicts #SucculentSquad #CactusClique #BegoniaBunch #DreamMachine #MonsteraMonday #Philodendron #tipsandtricks #EcoTherapy #crazyplantlady #PlantingOnABudget #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantTherapy #PlantAddict #plantfriendsarethebestfriends #adhdplantlovers #horticulturaltherapy #plantnerd

Hello my loves! 🥰🌿 It’s #untidytuesday at the #TheWateringHole and holy moly I’m just realizing I don’t think I’ve posted in over a week! 😱 Not intentional, it was rather a hard last couple weeks. Busy/Easter madness/emotional roller coaster. 🎢 Now I just want to take a nap 😴 But I also have 41 plants 🪴 to check in on first 😮‍💨 The other night I sleep-bought a new fertilizer. Okay I *was* vaguely aware of what I was doing but I thought I just put it in my cart…nope! It arrived next day LOL! Anyhoo, if you’re in the market for a good organic fertilizer that literally smells like chicken poo 💩 , boy have I got you covered! But it helped me realize that even though my usual superthrive foliage pro is a vibrant green color—it DOESN’T smell like poo 💩 🙌 That is a HUGE plus to me I never realized, and wow, I totally took that for granted! Here’s some things going on in my neck of the woods. My beautiful begonia maculara flowering, again! Mushroom kit growing. the fertilizer. And some of my little seedlings! What do you all have going on for this Tuesday afternoon? ⏱️Want to be notified of these posts when they come out?
