Best Answer
In March of 2022, I brought home this adorable Thai Constellation seedling, and I'll be honest, I was kinda nervous โ€“ it was so tiny! Fast forward almost two years, and wow, the transformation is awe-inspiring. It's grown into this beauty. (after pic taken today) Just goes to show, even the tiniest beginnings can turn into something amazing with a bit of care and time. ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #ThaiConstellationMonstera #ThaiConstellation #PlantGrowth #TransformationTuesday #BeforeAndAfter #greggivesback #PlantWisdom

Here is my before and after Blushing Bride Tradescantia.

Started out with two little cuttings from Etsy, 2 to 3 leaves on each. I put them in a prop tube with Pothos for what seemed like months. They finally rooted and started getting new leaves, so I potted them. They didn't take off right away though, so I didn't add them to my Oasis. Now the blushing bride colors are starting to show. The left photo is when I finally potted her on Oct 27th and put her into my Oasis. And the pic on the right (actually below, in the next comment) is this past weekend. I can't wait to see more of that pretty pink....and if I'm really lucky, eventually some flowers!
Don't give up!....Some of these plants are just slow to develop.
The "After" photo ditched when I hit post.
๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ
@UltraKoreanfir it looks AMAZING!
@smugwort copy and paste it here (:
@KatVinogradova THAT'S what I'm taking about! ๐Ÿ˜
I have learned a lot from the people on this appโ€ฆ about bugs and about watering about soilsโ€ฆ so much knowledge here!

I have two before and after pictures to showโ€ฆ first is my string of bananasโ€ฆ this plant has taught me about patience and bottom watering!
Second is my krimson princessโ€ฆ she has grown quite a bit for a Hoyaโ€ฆ she has taught me about how different soils do different things!

All in all Iโ€™m so glad I found Greg!
You are all THE BEST ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿชด ๐Ÿ™Œ
https://greg.app/post/1f7h3p/peperomia-hope-beforeandafter-i-thought-what-better-way-to-show-off-this-hashtag-then-my-mystery My boy Whoopee still stands
#stringofpearls the first picture is from April and the second and third are from today!! She was my second plant baby ever and she is thriving๐Ÿ’•
She kept her figure!

Ech. YPurple Delight. When I first got her vs after having dozens of babies! (None were planned ๐Ÿ˜†)
#bostonfern When I decided I was ready to take the plunge into creating my green oasis, I thought โ€œwhy not take on the one plant that you think you will never be successful with?โ€. So I did.

I bought Fern-dinand in April 2023. He started out in a 10โ€ pot, today heโ€™s in a 14โ€ pot. And 7 months, 2 re-pots, 2 divisions (I removed a 1/3 each time) later, heโ€™s doing mighty fine!!
I was given a bunch of little mother of thousands plantlets and they refused to grow! I was following the initial advice I found online and had them all together in a big pot. I switched it up to individual pots, changed the soil, and stuck them under a grow light, now theyโ€™re getting big and making their own plantlets! (Iโ€™ll be overrun soon enough ๐Ÿ˜‚) size wise the black plastic containers are the same containers in both photos #BeforeAndAfter #Kalanchoe
I learned that snake plants can bloom!! Donโ€™t skip on giving them light - sure they can survive in low light, but they can THRIVE with lots of light! These photos are two years apart but I think the progress speaks for itself.
Then and now, burros tail. Canโ€™t believe how much it has grown! 3rd pic is my new outdoor garden space that I never would have had the courage to put in if my indoor plants hadnโ€™t taught me so much about developing a green(ish) thumb. Hope that all of my plants both indoor and outdoor continue to bring me joy for many years to come! I will be filling this bed in the spring with many more native plants and perennials ๐Ÿ˜canโ€™t wait.
Too late to enter now? ๐Ÿ˜…
I kind of have 2 sets of before and after with my Calathea Makoyana (Millie as I named her). I got her as a tiny-winy plant 1 1/2 years ago, watched her grow into a queen, split her up after a year (๐Ÿ™ˆ) and watched her regain her beautiful crown in just a few months again. Love this plant ๐Ÿ’š
My Sago Palm is getting wayyyy out of hand and when I bring her in for the winter, there are few places she will fit! Left, outside earlier in the summer. Right, inside today. @SwiftMedeola #OhioGang #Zone6ers
@Hypsie That is SO COOL! My Ghost Ech is just starting to have some babies. I hope it does like yours! I love it!
I don't expect to be entered twice...but wanted to share another #beforeandafter with #plantsmakepeoplehappy #newgrowth #greggivesback #greggiveaway #plantaddict on the #bestappever because it's such a #happyplants

My tiger jaws ๐Ÿ… when I got it, and this evening when I grabbed it to water - it had a really nice surprise ๐Ÿซข. I didn't realize how much it had grown. It has grown into a small pride of ๐Ÿ… and I can't wait to see the ๐Ÿฏ ๐ŸŒบ
@UltraKoreanfir Aw I hope so too!
@AC73LoveCats BTW I am happy to see you all saying this is birthday week because mine was this week, Tuesday, Nov. 14 @sarahsalith
@smugwort that's so cool! It's inflated!
oh my GOSH, @GreenGracie! That's incredible!
Iโ€™ve learned so much about patience with my tropical plants. Iโ€™ve gardened since I was a little girl following my parents as they worked on their outdoor gardens ๐ŸŒน ๐ŸŒธ ๐Ÿ… ๐Ÿฅ’. So indoor tropicals weโ€™re new and different for me. I almost threw this Hilo Beauty out because it was nothing, for months! ๐Ÿ™ˆ But time after time I saw that others persevered and got results. So thankful for all the experiences of the #GregGang and willingness to share their stories. #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #GregGiveaway #GreggersSupportingGreggers #PlantAddict
This little hussy has been all attitude for as long as I can remember, but she finally pulled through her last tantrum and I have learned that I need to be more careful to adjust her finicky drinking schedule every season!
My pink mosaic syngo has grown so much in a few months and she is so pretty
Got this freckles mutation from plant proper as my first purchase from them in June of this year look how much she has grown in such a short time :) beyond pleased with this purchase
My little strawberry ice syngo has grown a lot in a few months also
My heart lead philo was a one leaf cutting when I hit her a year ago and look at the beauty now
@Michelle5986 DANG! Look at those hearts GROW!
@sarahsalith I know they are doing so amazing and give such great color every leaf I think she is one of my favs lol
Oh my favorite #BeforeAndAfter is my #gatewayplant ๐Ÿคฃ She was the first monstera I didnโ€™t kill (3 gave their lives before her) and the rest is enormous leaf history!
@LauraLynne love it!!
Iโ€™m not entering twice- I just wanted to show off a second ridiculous #BeforeAndAfter ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ™ˆ Miss Mercedes - my Moonlight Philo. She started out so petite and less than a year later sheโ€™s a damn monster ๐Ÿคฃ
Both plants I got in September. My feather cactus and my ZZ I have at work
I have learned SO MUCH from this group, from soil types, light/watering needs, propagation, and patience. For example, I received this mystery plant from someone who was moving. I assume the single large leaf got sunburned because it continued to brown further and further down the leaf, until I was left with a stem and a pointy spike next to the stem. I cut off the leaf, and observed. Meanwhile, the spike started to brown and get soft. After a bit, I got up my nerve to peel@away the soft, brown portion and exposed a firm, green portion, but still spikey. Figuring I had nothing to lose at this point, I cut off the stem to see if it would focus growth from anywhere else on the plant. I magazine my joy when leaves began to sproutโ€ฆfrom the SPIKE! Iโ€™m excited to@watch this plant grown and develop, and hopefully learn what the beach it is! The nursery pot said โ€œPhilodendron melinoniiโ€ but Iโ€™ve no clue if this person had reused the pot. Then thereโ€™s the Amydrium silver that I received as a long runner with a leaf at the end as well@as the $2 King Soopers clearance Dragon Scale Alocasia that is flourishing now that Iโ€™ve learned more about alocasia needs.
I count the alocasia as a victory, since I already had unalived one before!
Got to be my mixed succulent pot! It looks so beautiful now I can hardly believe it! Pic1) When I made it last year
Pic2/3) Today ๐Ÿฅน so big I need to take some out but I donโ€™t want to haha
Happy Birthday Greg! A couple plants here, but only a few months of growth. The succulent is a Hawarthia bought at beginning of summer and it has plumped up quite a bit. The last pics are a Kaffir Lime tree I started from seed, feels slow growing since the days have gotten shorter, but it has dropped it's cotyledons, grown taller and is growing a fresh leaf (it's 4th). ๐ŸŒฑ ๐ŸŽ‰
