Nutrient, fertilizer, and repotting needs for Athyrium angustum forma rubellum: repot after 2X growth

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.

Some pictures of my #OutsidePlants that I took today. 🌿 Everything is look so good, I can’t believe how big some of these plants have gotten. I didn’t get pictures of all of them though. Here’s some that are my favorites 1. Ghost lady fern, this is my second one, my first one is in my mom’s yard (planted it there when I lived with her), so once I moved, I got another one for myself, because the first ended up just looked so good. Hopefully mine will get as big as hers, but right now it’s wayyy smaller than hers. 2. Lantana, I took these out my planters and put them in my front yard a month or so ago and they have just took off! They have gotten so big and the butterflies love them (: 3. Waikiki Elephant Ears- You wouldn’t even know this was a division that only had one leaf when I first got it, I wasn’t even sure if it was gonna make it, because I was scared I had maybe damaged the roots or plant when I split it in half from the mother plant, but after a few days of it being in shock it perked up, and I eventually got it planted in my front yard. It’s better then I could’ve imagined it’s about 5 times the size it was when I planted it. Sorry for the rant I’m just super proud of (all) my plants. 🤗🌱💚✨ #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #OutdoorGrowing #PlantLove #ElephantEar #Lantana #landscape #FernFriends #fern #GhostLadyFern #FloweringPlants #Flowers

#FreshLeafFriday 🌿 My Ghost fern I thought was dead, has came back fuller and healthy now that spring is here. I knew it was hardy but still was worried since it completely dissapeared. I wasn’t sure if it would come back, but today I looked and it was looking so much better then it did when I first got it last year! It has new growth and beautiful colors that the make the ghost ferns so attractive to me. So happy it came back! 🤗💚🌿 Also a very pretty tulip that my mom grew. The bag said white but they werent white clearly 😆🤷🏻‍♀️ I like these better anyways! #Tulips #FernFriends #FernFriday #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #NewGrowth #OutdoorGrowing #OutsidePlants #PlantAddict
