Goodnight from crispy boy and long boy

Goodnight from the besties, Crispy Boy πŸ‚ & Long Boy 🌱
@sarah10orio Thank you so much for my Crispy Boy. I know USPS shipping took a toll on him, but the name suits him and I already love him just as much as I love Long Boy πŸ₯ΉπŸ’• bf chose the name and he loves Crispy Boy 😊

Lollllll awwee crispy boy is still cute! Is that a Solomon seal??? I stood over a variegated one once again today before my day went to crap but they are starting to look very rough at the nursery so I had to pass.
Ah. Reading is fundamental but I'm soooooo past that tonight 🀣🀣🀣
Screw it all πŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™€οΈπŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™€οΈπŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™€οΈ
@ManyLime You’re precious 🀣🀣 yes it’s a Variegated Solomon’s Seal! Sarah sent it over along with some other babies (see pictured) but shipping was ROUGH!! the box looked like it had been kicked around and punched at πŸ’€πŸ’€

The babies are now doing better after getting a drink of water and they’re well established in my little plant corner, but Crispy Boy…well…turned into a crisp BUT rhizome was still intact and healthy! So 🀞🏽✨
This is what he’ll *hopefully* look like once he’s grown! @ManyLime
Yessss! The variegated Solomon seal is sooooooo pretty! The nursery I got my micans from has them but it's getting later in the summer and the stock is lower and less... healthy looking.. lol. I should have jumped on them when I first discovered them. I still might. Maybe they will give me a discount if they look really beat up πŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™€οΈ
I know where I would put them but my dog has gotten used to doing her business back there and I wonder if it would be futile lol.
These are what I found a few weeks ago at the nursery. GORGE
@ManyLime I saw your post a while back! I ordered some from AMAZON from all places. I have to keep the soil pretty moist while they are settling in.

Dariana - I LOVE Crispy Boy and I LOVE that you left the stem on. 🀣

I will never use USPS to send plants again ... EVER! #USPSHatesPlants
@sarahsalith @ManyLime What a gorgeous plant 😍 Yes I kept the stem 🀣🀣 @PlantyPlanter suggested to leave as is! πŸ˜‰
@sarahsalith my hubby works for USPS and I agree! When I first got into this plant thing I ordered from Amazon and the box looked like it was literally stomped on. I couldn't even identify the plant.
I asked him 'do you guys see the words 'Plants. Handle with care' and just automatically stomp the living hell out of the box?!?? 🀣🀣🀣 I laid into him like he personally destroyed my plant.
@ManyLime let me say this- I am now hating on individuals that work for USPS- I'm just hating on them as a whole ... and those few folks that STOMP MY PACKAGES. USPS was supper reliable until about the last 10 years. It's just gotten really bad. ):
@sarahsalith oh believe me I understand lol
I agree. The lack of care is ridiculous at times.
@ManyLime let me tell you, if I ever see Mr. Louis DeJoy, he'll want to run away because I'd have a few suggestions for him. 🀣
