My new babies arrived today! The four I’ve been waiting for months to arrive; finally arrived! Yay! Then my Hoya surprise plants came today! The seller is amazing and I’m blown away by the amazing packaging and quality she put into this! I’m in love! 🥰 So excited, this is the kind of pee your pants excited! I know plant mail is so dorky to those who don’t get it… luckily; I have Greg, so I’m not alone. 🤣🫶🏻🌸🐝🐝🩵 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #TheThread #TheWateringHole #Hoya #HoyaHangout #HoyaHeads #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #SucculentLove #PlantTherapy #GrowLights #NewPlantMom #OrchidLovers #PetsAndPlants #MonsteraMonday #PlantCorner #BeforeAndAfter #PlantShelfie #RarePlants #PlantID #PlantLove #PlantSwap #HangingPlants

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?

Soaking day 😁 Finally got some fertilizers for my air plants and orchid and we are having a little rainwater spa day on this cloudy but warm afternoon! 💕 #HappyPlants #AirPlant #OrchidLovers #GregGang #TheWateringHole

Good Tuesday afternoon to all at #TheWateringHole 🪴 ☀️!! We had a bright sunny morning ☀️ Clouds ☁️ are now rolling in which makes for a calmer, quieter afternoon along the coast 😌. Went to a horse show last week 😁 🐴 in Burbank. Home now to 💦 and catch up!! Here’s what’s happening: Hoya tricolor wayetii in full flower peduncle mode!! There are 2 flowers out and at least a dozen pedunkadunks 🌸! For the orchid set up I added a second grow light, one on bottom now too. You know, it’s all about the orchids🤪😜😆. Not done arranging and rearranging yet, that’ll take a few days for me to stop fussing 🤫🫠🫥. Next up a new leaf on the Congo Red 😘❤️ love him. And for #untidyTuesday my Blue Star fern that’s been stuck between neutral and reverse for months!! Threw a personal grow light on her to see if that’s what’s ailing her?? Not sure if it’s springtime or the light but there’s growth 🙌 What’s been happening in your world 🌎 🪴 lately. Any plants bursting out now it’s mid April??? #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #NewGrowth #OrchidLovers #HoyaHangout #FernFriends #untidyTuesday

Orchid never seems damp enough?

I’ve had a busier day today; it’s been cooler, so I’ve been taking advantage and starting seeds for my family’s different gardens. Hopefully, they all make a decent start 🤞. I’ve had a couple of nights of frost, and all my plants I can’t cover have just bombed in leaves. They were looking so happy and beautiful. 🤦‍♀️ Ugh, late frost is the worst. 🤬🥶 But out with the negative and instead focus on the positive and the beauty 🙃🤨🫶🏻🐝🌸 #HappyPlants #TheWateringHole #TheThread #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #PlantTherapy #SucculentLove #GrowLights #NewPlantMom #OrchidLovers #PetsAndPlants #MonsteraMonday #PlantCorner #BeforeAndAfter #PestControl #PlantShelfie #RarePlants #PlantID #OutdoorGrowing #PlantLove

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

Well, something had a baby in here… This one came with snail damage and an empty shell in the medium so I have had it in a very small amount of moss to monitor for snails and haven’t gotten around to permanent potting it yet, then noticed this little sprout today. This plant has not bloomed for me yet (buds in spikes were hollowed out) and nothing has been pollinated around it since I’ve had it. It’s probably some mystery seed that was in the medium, but here’s hoping it’s a germinated seed of the parent that hitched a ride on the roots and managed to survive a repot 🤞 #PhalaenopsisOrchid #OrchidLovers

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?

I was so excited to be able to get out of the house today, and on the way home from the doctor, my mum stopped at a local nursery. She got some gorgeous little show stoppers! Then she just happened to magically find herself at checkout with a plant I’d be wanting for… forever! 🤔 Myers Asparagus Fern… ferns and I are just barely starting to like each other, they’ve been my sadly misunderstood plants that I sorely have attempted to understand… I’m sure they all have a few thorny - ferny fiddle head love hardships.. 🙃 (I know, me and side rants..) okay, it was so weird. We really had no idea who put the fern up there. I was in a separate part of the plants when I heard my mom laughing, saying, “It’s not hers and she didn’t know where it came from, but maybe I do?” I said no, but I want one! So my mom was an angel and just said…”it made itself into the cart. How could I say no? It was coming home with me whether or not we knew it.”… “so NOW stop cooing over the plants! They can go to other people’s homes that will love them too! 🤣” #TheWateringHole #TheThread #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #SucculentLove #PlantTherapy #GrowLights #OrchidLovers #PetsAndPlants #MonsteraMonday #PlantCorner #BeforeAndAfter #PestControl #PlantShelfie #RarePlants #PlantID

What is the best for my anthurium?

These are the succulents that came from the giveaway that @vvvelo was doing! They are beautiful. Please don’t mind my very old crockpot base that no longer works, so I use to start things. 😉 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #SucculentLove #PlantTherapy #GrowLights #OrchidLovers #PetsAndPlants #PlantCorner #BeforeAndAfter #PlantShelfie #RarePlants #PlantID #TheWateringHole #TheThread

FriYay!! Almost the weekend #TheWateringHole gang 🎉!! Wouldn’t it be nice if we could all gather and chat plants 🪴!?! A Happy Plantie Hour! 🌺🍃🪴 Super excited to see 4 🎉 pedunkiedunks on Hoya compacta! This guy was banished to the great outdoors a few years back. Thought for sure the mealies would do him in. Evidently he’s found a simpatico world 🌎 out there because he’s doing fine and producing flowers 🌼🐞🕷️. Next up another outside plant but Mr Rhipsalis has always been outside. Just didn’t know for the first few years what he really wanted, oops 😬. And that was to NOT be in strong sun ☀️!! Great shaded spot 🥹 next to the front door. Much happier rhipsalis now. Next is Max the Maxillaria tenuifolia. I love the way the sun hits his fatty fat pseudo bulbs 💚💛. He’s definitely not 💯 perfect, but I forgive myself for that 🫣, thank you very much @DreamMachine 🤭 and love him, imperfections and all!! Last up teeny tiny succulents babies! Fall where they may under momma plants and watch them grow! 💚. Let’s see what’s happening with you and your plants! Beautiful imperfections and all!!!👍🙌🎉. #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #NewGrowth #HoyaHangout #HoyaHeads #Rhipsalis #OrchidLovers #SucculentSquad #FreshLeafFriday #brunchataudreys
