Yaaaay! So exciting!!! Can’t wait to see what’s inside!
Was up early so just went to work early. Hopefully that will give me more ping planting time this afternoon. Course im sitting in my truck smoking drinking β˜•οΈ and gregging! πŸ˜‚
@TheConservator it’s a great day for plant mail. I am expecting a delivery today from Brady’s, an aglaonema red army! It shows out for delivery! πŸ“¦ hopefully it looks like the picture from the website. My last aglaonema from them was the pink emerald and it was gorgeous when it arrived, so I’m very optimistic. πŸ˜ƒ
NiceπŸ™Œ! Thats a neat looking one! Dont think ive seen it before @nellz4estfairyz
@TheConservator hey yay congrats! Where did you order from? I’m looking to get more carnies this year and a multi mystery pack sounds fun!
COOL 😎 How are you going to arrange the pings?
@UltraKoreanfir im still not sure tbh. I might put a few in the top plataue in that big bowl ive been working on, but nit sure theyll live in it? Def wont all go in 1 container .
Good morning everyone!! @TheConservator I have the same question… how ar to arranging these guys. Sounds fun!!
@RealSimpleMama littke carnivours, they had 5 or 10 pack im pretty sure of mystery pings. But they have a hige selection of pings in general
@TheOddAsity i gotta see what i got . Kinda been slacking figuring it out tbhπŸ˜‚πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
Definately anxiuos to get home to start on it!
Already did my kitchen splash. Have 3 bathroom splashes and 3 vinyls to lay then im done for the day
@TheConservator at this point, I’m so behind on plant chores I’m anxious about a lot of things in the plant world πŸ˜‚
That’s so exciting:)
@TheOddAsity me too that tent messed up my whole routine
Oh yeah!! I got plant mail day before last. I don’t think I mentioned it as I wasn’t on yesterday. Or did I? πŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ Gee whiz… the days are blending!!
@Michelle5986 the mystery packs can be kinda 🀯 do i? Dont i? But 10 for 120 was such a good deal i figured it woukd be worth it .
Most theirs range from 19-30$ soπŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
@TheOddAsity i dont think you did lol but they sure look nice !
@nellz4estfairyz ive never seen that one either and ive been looking for β€œrare” varieties myself. I’ve just ordered this Aglaonema Khanza Pink and I’m hoping mine arrives as gorgeous as in the picture too!
Good morning everyone! I'm so excited for you @TheConservator, can't wait to see your new babies πŸ₯° I think I might have a pretty uneventful day cuz I have no plant chores (I think that's a sign that I need to go plant shopping πŸ˜‰) Have a fantastic Thursday on purpose everyone!
OMG that's gorgeous 🀩 @Shells_Garden
@TheOddAsity I am absolutely loving your purple flowers! (I am a sucker for anything purple) where did you get them?
@BrawnyMachofern they are African violets. I got them in a three pack from Hirt’s Garden (online) for like $16?
@BrawnyMachofern yup just need a few more plants
@TheOddAsity No way!! I think I need to splurge and get my first African violet (but first I need to figure out how to care for them lol)
@TheConservator always πŸ˜‚
@BrawnyMachofern so Hirts has an Etsy shop, online website or through WalMart. I go through Walmart a lot because of Walmart Cash. It’s a toss up where you order from. Walmart has lower shipping costs, but the prices are a bit higher than online, (not by much). On Etsy they take forever to ship out. And on their site they have lower cost prices but the shipping is higher. πŸ˜‚ take your pick
Once again greg plant pushersπŸ™„ who woulda guessed greg makes your plant collection quadruple!?
My greg habits are CP and alocasia.... mainly
@TheConservator I only got introduced to Greg when I bought my succulent pack from Costa Farms...the obsession has only gotten worse from then on πŸ˜‚
@princesspitstop did you get your plant haul potted up yesterday ?
Correction its rainbow carnivours not little! @UltraKoreanfir @RealSimpleMama @TheOddAsity
Its on thise tags in the picsπŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ i was brainfarting lol
@TheOddAsity oh they are all so beautiful!!🀩
I bet they have over 100 types
@WelsomeRhodotus I couldn’t have waited! They would have been opened 2 minutes after receiving them even if they came at 3AM!!!
@Shells_Garden I JUST ORDERED ONE TOO!!! From #TheGreenEscape and it’s a baby but looks so good!
@RealSimpleMama that is exactly where I ordered mine from. It is a 2 or 3 inch starter. Was it you that recommended Green Escape on this forum? If so thank you! That’s why I went to their site. I also purchased a 4 inch Aglaonema Pictum tri color
@TheConservator yes that’s not bad at all but I totally get the do I don’t I part lol
@Shells_Garden yes that is me! I got my 16-plant order almost two weeks ago. This is my baby!! (Terrible photo, so sorry, but it already had pink edges and all the leaves look super healthy.) It was also delayed by USPS two additional days.
@TheConservator Good Morning everyone and congratulations on your plant mail. I’m sure you got some good stuff. Excited to πŸ‘€ . Have a blessed day πŸ™πŸ½
@TheConservator what is plant mail? And how do you order?
Lol its just when you order plants online @Preciousplants1 from anywhere you chooseπŸ™Œ
@RealSimpleMama is it a dendobium?
Omg… They restored my account to link with the new one I had made. Now I can’t see @Araceae again…
@TheConservator hey! No it’s that pink aglanoema
@RealSimpleMama oh wow! I know you are going to make her into something big and beautiful. I’ll share a photo of mine when it arrives. I live on the complete opposite coast to FL so I don’t expect mine to arrive until next week.
@RealSimpleMama oh it looked like a tiny dendrobiumπŸ€·β€β™‚οΈπŸ˜‚
@YesWaiuatua7 hahaha same here!
@Shells_Garden I love that one too! 😻
Herez the bowl ive been working on.
They are small and a little rough on some but overall i def cant complain. I ended up with a bunch extra cause several had 2-3 in em.
18 actual pings so i cant complain lol
But if your wanting big ones you have to buy the actual singles. Its all in the disclaimer for mystery pack buying
Group shot
@TheConservator loving β€œpeaches” the pink ones! Very nice array of pings :) I have had some plant mail today and got an interesting crassula I don’t remember the name though. It’s the middle one in the first pic. My husband and I went to Home Depot this morning again for new plants and I got nice calatheas I didn’t have and some gardenias, a hellebores plus some outdoor flowers like candytuft, violas, pincushion flower and lungwort!
I also fertilized my little bougainvilleas. Made this silly egghead, and I’m excited to announce that my bulb lawn project from last fall has finally begun to sprout!!🌱
I bought these clematis for delivery in May. Obsessed! 😍 and here’s my most active bulb lasagnas! I’ve been dragging them out for the day and back to the garage for the cold nights. Still waiting for spring!
@Blueberrypie that is a different crassula. Barely looks like one! Did they forklift your cart out for you ?πŸ˜‚ Ive been trying to stay away from the spring plants still! Spent to much on houseplants this year lol
@Blueberrypie love clematis i have 2 in my yard. A barbara something ??? And the ither i have no clue πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
@TheConservator hehe the outdoor gardening is some of my favorite! I’m very new still though, last year was my first and it’s not even been quite a year yet lol.”Crassula orbicularis” and funny enough my brother in law works at Home Depot and lives with us, so I asked him to grab me a few more candy tufts, I think I’ll use them and the other plants I got for some outdoor hanging mixed pots, and I need 2 for my fairy garden!
@TheConservator 🀣🀣🀣 aaaa duh lol
And i can't see @OrangeGrass's again πŸ˜‘
@Blueberrypie damn do you have sn army of kids to do the watering and weeding πŸ˜‚?
We just all need to start spamming erica lol. Get this cant see people thjng fixed !😑
Everybody’s making me a bit envious with all this plant mail and plant shopping. I feel left out!!
@RefinedSandwort i gotta stop! Lol and tbh i feel my spree winding down. Those pings were probably my last houseplant purchase for quite awhile. And im not sure how much ill buy for outdoor this spring even.
I potted up a bunch of individuals. They dtay like that. But the tray that has a bunch is just temporary housing
Total insomnia tonight. Think i slept 2 hrs before i just started tossing and turning 😀
2 am and been up an hr already
Lots of plant chores to do but i dont feel like doing em nowπŸ₯±
@TheConservator I understand that and I have become totally hooked on this group of people and reading about all the plants! My husband keeps asking me what game I’m playing and I tell him I’m doing the plant thing again I’m not playing games and he keeps saying oh Lord, are you gonna buy more plants? I can’t help but laugh because spring is coming and I love being outdoors. I’m going to include a couple of pictures of my outdoor flowers if that’s OK.
Wish my yard had been mowed before I took these pictures lol
@YesWaiuatua7 looks great to me 😍! And really share whatever you want here..... as long as its not something i hear on the news! PLEASE!πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
@YesWaiuatua7 what a beautiful yard!!
@Blueberrypie your yard looks great too!

Outdoors is where I started my love of plants. We had to rip out whole yard out. Out front yard was eroding and had to build a retaining wall. I have just a few things planted. I love those pin cushion flowers (scabiosa) they’re my favorites. I have a bunch I am planting indoors in the weeks to come. Thanks for the motivation!
