Hi cute little fella!

Your mom is gorgeous also ๐Ÿคฉ
๐Ÿ˜Omgoodness!! Super awesome!
Love it! Don't get to see that too often! ๐Ÿ˜‰
Love the zz plant! Especially the black leaves!
Omg! Whatโ€™s it smell like?!
Wow, impressive!!
@CutePolypremum
Aww โ˜บ๏ธ you are so kind! โ™ฅ๏ธ
@PeaceQueen - Right!? I am beyond excited! ๐Ÿ˜†
@UltraKoreanfir - I agree! I didnโ€™t even know ZZ Plants flowered until the end of last year! ๐Ÿค—
@RootsVineLeaf
Thank you Melanie! โ™ฅ๏ธ I have really fallen in love with ZZ Plants! Now I love them even more, knowing they flower! ๐Ÿฅน
@julesplants
Julissa, I got in there and took a big ole sniff, just for you! ๐Ÿคญ It didnโ€™t smellโ€ฆlike anything. All I could smell was the dirt ๐Ÿ˜†
@debbiedo
Thank you Debbie! โ™ฅ๏ธ
@theloveofplants ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜… thank you!!! Appreciate the effort lol Iโ€™m kinda obsessed with smelling the blooms of plants and am always curious to know how they smell. The best smelling bloom Iโ€™ve had so far is from Alocasia wentii, it smelled like bubble gum ๐Ÿคญ and second was Alocasia silver dragon smelled like earthy honey. I have some Hoyas and Iโ€™m desperate to see if theyโ€™ll ever bloom because I hear their blooms smell the best!
@julesplants - I was happy to get all up in there and give her a sniff! ๐Ÿ˜† I was surprised that there is no scent. OoOo I had to look up an alocasia wentii-that plant is a stunner! I have no luck with alocasia plants. I have killed them all. ๐Ÿ˜… I love that the bloom smells like bubble gum! I also have a few Hoya plants and I am loving them so much! Yes, if one of them blooms - I will be all up in there smelling them! I also heard it is safe to give the flowers and little lick - apparently they taste good too! The best houseplant flower I have smelled thus far is a sting of pearls. The flower smells like a mix on cinnamon and vanilla! And the bloom is just as cute as can be!
@theloveofplants ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜… I was surprised too and also surprised that my philodendron ring of fire bloom had no smell either I was a little sad. And lol true sheโ€™s a beaut. All I have are alocasias lol they do well with me thankfully.
Iโ€™m sooo excited to see if theyโ€™ll bloom and yes lmao I wanna taste it too!
Ooooh Iโ€™m shocked to find out that bloom doesnโ€™t look similar to string of hearts blooms. String of hearts blooms donโ€™t smell either lol
Now I want a string of pearls lol
@julesplants - Oh that is interesting that your philodendron ring of fire did not have a smell ๐Ÿค”

I have heard you either get alocasia plants or you donโ€™t. I donโ€™t. ๐Ÿคฃ I love the way they look. But as soon as I bring them home=dead. But that is okay, I have so many other plants to care for and love! I am so glad your alocasia plants do well for you! โ™ฅ๏ธ

I want to taste the Hoya blooms too! I am so intrigued by them!

I have a little start of string of hearts - but not enough to get a bloom yet - good to know they also bloom!

What is this? Flowers that donโ€™t have a smell!? How dare they!
@julesplants - ๐Ÿ˜‚ Yes! They are so much fun too! And actually pretty easy to take care of!
@theloveofplants yep lol I was disappointed and I waited over two weeks for it to bloom!
And yeah thatโ€™s true lol thank you but sorry they donโ€™t work out for you.
๐Ÿคญ I just propped a string of hearts strand that fell off the mom so now I have two and yes! They looks interesting I think I posted about them a while back.
Right?! Iโ€™m offended ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…

I was nervous about getting any string of things because Iโ€™ve heard a lot about them dying etc but my string of hearts changed my perspective
@julesplants
Ahh ๐Ÿ˜ฏ over two years and then they donโ€™t even have a smellโ€ฆ.well was the flower at least pretty?

Oh, gracious - no worries about the Alocasia Plants - maybe one day something will change - but at least I know for right now, they donโ€™t work for me. I have an obsession with anything Pothos - so I will just put my love there! โ™ฅ๏ธ

Ohh that is the perfect way to ease your way into the โ€œspring of thingsโ€ world!

Me too - I am also offended!

The key to spring of pearls - in my experience - they do NOT like to be overwatered. I sometimes forget to water mine and she is thriving! They love light from the top - if possible. So I have a grow light in the soil. That has also really helped!
@theloveofplants yep two weeks and it was your basic bloom really. Still pretty though. And now I have another philodendron blooming.
And yeah for sure! Understandable lol and oooh love pothos of all kinds
And yes!
True same with the hearts! Also photo of my hearts mom
@julesplants -
Julissa, both of those plants are absolutely beautiful! That philodendron bloom is awesome!

Pothos plants are just simply awesome! And SO easy to propagate and make MORE plants! ๐Ÿชด ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

That string of hearts is beautiful as well! I love the variation!

Look at all that amazing-ness! ๐Ÿคฉ
@theloveofplants thank you thank you! And I agree lol pothos are an all around great plant. And thanks yes the variegation is my favorite. It shows so much pink in the sun.
@julesplants -
Pink in plants is just ๐Ÿซ ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿฅน
@julesplants - You are quite welcome! Pothos are just an all around great plant! ๐Ÿชด
I absolutely agree which is why my ficus ruby is one of my top favorite @theloveofplants
@julesplants - Yaaaasss! I also have a Ficus Ruby! Love, lovvvvvve, love the colors! Such beautiful pictures! ๐Ÿ˜
Beautiful
@ResoluteWildyam - Thank you! ๐Ÿค—
U r one blessed plant mom
