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.

Good morning Wednesday #TheWateringHole 🫶🌿🌤️ How is everyone doing in their neck of the woods? I, like quite a number of #greggers , have some pests in my indoor collection. Broad mites. (Booo hiss!!) They are minuscule, to a lot of people they are microscopic, 1/4 of a millimeter 🤏 small , but I can see them. They look like little dust specks moving around without magnification. They are notoriously hard to contain because of their size. Not only can they come in on a plant, they are so small they can float on a breeze through a window screen. 🦋🐝 How did I find them? I had a few very strange new leaves on two hoyas. They curled in on themselves, lost their shiny luster, appeared grey, and fell off (with my tweezer into a baggie) at a mere touch. I shall post those leaves. You can treat with neem, although it is a lot of labor involved, so this time and with the knowledgeable advice of @MusicalRedmint Susann, I am going PREDATORY MITES. This website DMV Beneficials is amazing. https:// They are a US-based service that offers free consultations to figure out what you’re dealing with and what would be the best predatory bug to help. If you have a pest situation and are feeling a little overwhelmed, reach out to them, they help people all over the states get connected with suppliers of good bugs. They also keep your budget in mind. And it seems like prices are not as bad as they used to be! I may be able to contain my pest issue for less than $50 😮‍💨😮‍💨. And if you are in another country, I highly encourage you to look around for beneficial suppliers near you 🦋🐞 And if you’re in Oregon or Washington, here is the supplier I will most likely be going with. You can check out their prices, only about $1 per sachet! https:// The mites I’m selecting are also microscopic, so you don’t have to see them in your house if that freaks you out. (I shall be bringing out my microscope though, and watching with interest on the sidelines because I am a grade A Weirdo. ) 🚩🍿🥳📣🙌👏 Well, how’s everyone else doing today? 😜😂 ⏱️Want to be notified of these posts when they come out?

Happy Thursday #TheWateringHole !! ✨🌿 Quite a few of us seem to have had very exciting days yesterday, I for one am hoping for a nice calm Thursday 🤞 As for #pedunclewatch I am up to FIVE peduncles on my Hoya ‘Bella.’ I don’t know how I missed those other two on such a tiny plant, but I did. 😅 What an overachiever! Have any planty plans for today? I hope it includes NOT putting perlite in a 415° oven 🥴 ⏱️Want to be notified of these posts when they come out?

Good morning planty people of #TheWateringHole ✨🌿🫶 It is Monday, and I’m busy hurrying around watering everyone outside, as it’s lovely and 60° right now, but we’re supposed to get up to 85°, and if you know me, that is hot, hot, HOT 🥵 I am hoping to get back into the swing of regular posting, but I just had a very couple busy weeks, with picking up a regular shift at work, a trip to the coast 🌊 , and we’re getting into the last couple weeks of school for my kiddo. 🏃🏼‍♀️🍎⏰ But BIG NEWS!! We are on #pedunclewatch !!! 😱🥳🤩 Since I got into hoyas last summer, I’ve only had the start and subsequent blasting of a couple peduncles on one hoya, my crassipetiolata, but it was just the beginning of winter, and he got too cold and gave up on them. 🥶😔 Who’s the contender this time? My sweet Hoya ‘Bella,’ whom I got only last month, as a cutting in perlite, from my hoya lady on FB marketplace!! Bella is STILL in that cup of perlite, I didn’t get a chance to pot her up yet, and she has 3, count em’ THREE pedunkadunks starting 😱😮‍💨🤯🤩 As my photos will be peduncles, I’ll add my bountiful morning’s strawberry 🍓 harvest photo in the comments, along with my Mother’s Day snapdragon bloom, and my dahlias (not in bloom yet). How’s everyone’s Monday? Any blooms or new growth that you’re excited about? Any struggling? This is my Saturday, but if it’s your actual Monday, I wish you a very good and planty week 😘🌿✨ ⏱️Want to be notified of these posts when they come out?
