Good Evening to ALL who may come across this post 😊 I have something I NEED to share with you guys 🤯 So on Tuesday, I went out on the front porch to water some plants 🪴 (I don’t go out there often because of the wasp and the heat this time of year) As I’m watering my smaller Bird of Paradise, I notice it’s REALLY leaning towards the stairs which makes it in the way when walking up or down. Therefore I thought why don’t I switch it with my banana tree so it’ll lean more towards the center. I lean over to pick it up and I’m trying to figure out WHY it won’t come out of the concrete pot?! 🤔 Usually the plants come right out, but not this time. So I’m pulling, I’m tugging, I’m wiggling, I’m leaning it every which way and NOTHING! Well FINALLY it lets loose!!! Believe it or NOT, the BOP roots had grown out of the drainage holes in the clay pot and into the cement pot 😳🤯😳 I cannot believe how big, thick, and healthy those roots are! It just blows my mind. I never would have thought that would happen. I mean I could have planted the BOP directly into the cement planter, but that thing is extremely HEAVY. So to make it easier, I just put the clay pot inside the cement pot! Now I have to do a repot 🤯🤯 And last year, I had a bunch of broken stems from my Easter and Thanksgiving Cactus. So I planted all of them in a little throw away container with some peat moss. Now the Thanksgiving Cactus wants to bloom?!? WHAT?? I’m sooo confused, yet sooo excited 😜 Last, but not least is my Lifesaver Cactus. It’s from MR SONNY and it’s about to BLOOM 🥰❤️🥰 FIRST TIME EVER!!!!!! #FloweringPlants #RootPorn #TheWateringHole #HappyPlants #BirdOfParadise #thanksgivingcactus #EasterCactus #LifesaverCactus #NewGrowth #PlantLove #PlantAddict

It's that time again!! Time for a #GregGivesBack #Giveaway brought to you by the #GregGivesBackGiveaway squad! This month, share a plant or five that you WISH you could grow in your growing zone, but can't. I have ventured out of my comfort zone (and growing #zone8) and traveled to Southern California in growing #zone10! I have seen HUGE #agave and MASSIVE #opuntia (that's my daughter in the picture!) Mine are so small and I reckon I'll never see them get big. ): There are #BirdOfParadise plants in bloom and #TreeAeonium that are so lush and large! Alas, there's no place like home and I'll enjoy my tiny plants and just have good memories of the plants living their best lives #outside in zone 10. ☺️ 🌵WHAT WILL THE WINNER GET:🌵 A $50 #GregPlantShop gift card that the #GregTeam has generously donated will be sent via email from the Giveaway Squad and the #GregGivesBack project! 🎉 ⏰ WHEN TO ENTER: ⏰ The #giveaway is open NOW, Friday, June 12, 2026 and will close Sunday, June 15, 2026 (after I land back in #Memphis) 🎉 CHOOSING A WINNER: 🎉 A name will be chosen RANDOMLY by the #MagicWheel out of all those that entered the giveaway!🎉 #Greggers outside the 48 states are not eligible to win because of the #GregPlantShop only delivers to the 48 states. ❓ HOW TO ENTER: ❓ How to enter the June 2026 giveaway: Reply to this post and share: Share a plant or two that you'd LOVE to have, but can't grow well inside of your growing zone. 🗺️ WHERE: 🗺️ Remember, your official entry must include a reply in this post.
