#TheWateringHole Hello everyone! Hope y’all had a happy 4...

#TheWateringHole Hello everyone! Hope y’all had a happy 4th of July! It was pretty boring at our house. We did have a coffee/frappacino date and then had grilled hamburgers and hotdogs. I was just happy to be off work for the weekend.
In plant news, I finally got around to repotting my moonshine snake plant, as well as doing a bunch of watering. My hubby just finished watering his hostas and the outdoor flowers. It’s blazing hot outside.
I’ve included pics of our July 4th decoration (other than our American flag which stays out year round), my moonshine snake plant in its new digs, and my hubby’s hosta he bought a few weeks ago when we bought our outdoor flowers.
What’s happening at your oasis this weekend? Do anything special for the holiday? Any new plants, new growth you want to share?

Hi Joy. It was real quiet here as well. Too hot to do anything outside. I putzied around propagating and re-potting. I'm trying to leaf propogate some of my begonias.
@RefinedSandwort Good Afternoon, to you! 🌞 I didn’t celebrate, stayed 🏠 and watched the fireworks 🧨 from my balcony. But, earlier that morning, I repotted two of my plants. One being my Philodendron Moonlight, a before and after photo of her and my Ficus Shivereana in to a bigger and better soil for them! 😉 Love your Moonshine 🐍 Plant, which I have one too, and your husband’s Hosta Plant is gorgeous!! 🙌 I love the variegated 🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃🍃! Have a relaxing Sunday on purpose! 😉
@GracedStrapwort Wow!! 🤩 Simply gorgeous!! 😍 Those vibrant colors on your Begonias are stunning! 🙌 Can’t wait to see the outcome of your beautiful Begonias!
@GracedStrapwort Your begonias are beautiful!!
@SweetAzurebluet those are gorgeous! Love that Philodendron Moonlight! I can see where a bigger pot was needed!
We watched fireworks on TV. We had some neighbors setting some off. Our poor kitty retreated under the bed in the guest bedroom. We’re having a nice quiet afternoon at home.
Happy Sunday to @RefinedSandwort and #TheWateringHole gang🇺🇸🎆 We didn’t do anything special either as I was down for the count with a cold 🤧 that unfortunately caused so much sneezing & coughing that it hurt my stomach. Note* I have an extremely sensitive stomach so it doesn’t take much to make it unhappy😑. Anyway…. I had moments of feeling better and got some watering 💦 done ✅ Snapped a few pics along the way-a newbie leaf 🍃 on my ficus with late afternoon sun shining on it. And an unfurling leaf on the Red Congo. Funny I bought the Congo with 2 birkins potted with it. I took them out several months ago and have come to really like him all by himself😘
@RefinedSandwort the nursery had it in a 4” planter and the leaves are so heavy, it was toppling over. But, all in all, I love it. Sorry, 😞 for anyone’s pet, who don’t take kindly to loud noises.
@RefinedSandwort your moonshine is coming along nicely 🥰. And your hostas!!! Wow 🤩 the hubs does a great job 👏
@MariansOasis Hope you are feeling better soon! The coloring on those new leaves is beautiful!
@GracedStrapwort gorgeous begonias Deb!🏆. Love the silvery one in pic 4 🤩🥰
@SweetAzurebluet hello Harriet 👋 so nice to see you! That moonlight definitely is gonna love his new digs 🪴👍. I found when I potted mine up he took a bit to get used to it. Not much happened for several months. He’s just now starting to come around again. The leaves 🍃 on your ficus are so pretty 😍!! Ficus are such great houseplants 👍👍👍
@MariansOasis Good Afternoon, 🌞 glad you are feeling a little better! 😍 Congratulations 👏🏾 on the newly almost furling 🍃🍃! The vibrant red/orange and red on your plants are beautiful! Good to hear from you, I haven’t been on that much!
@MariansOasis Yes, they definitely are, I couldn’t agree more. Probably that’s why I have 3 of them! 😉😂 I have my Moonshine under a grow light, and she seems to like it. She also has a new 🍃 which unfurl recently
Is that a lemon lime hostas? It’s gorgeous; sounds like a great 4th to be having!
@Idplantthat I was in a different section of the Home Depot garden center when my husband put it in the cart. I have no clue what it is. I do know that I paid for it!
@SweetAzurebluet I haven’t been on a lot either. Pop in now and then.
the snake plant is so easy! you just water it every 2-3 weeks and THRIVES at bright indirect light :)
@RefinedSandwort Happy 4th, Joy! That’s Hosta is SO pretty! Good pick by the hubs 👍🏻
We enjoyed an afternoon on the boat yesterday and made sure to be tucked back in to our place before the fireworks started.

This is our first 4th with our new doggo and we were glad to find that they didn’t bother him much 😅

In plant news, the fungus gnat war continues 😒 (I think I’m maybe gaining some ground?)

And on a more positive note, my Shell Ginger is thriving under its grow light and is even putting out a new shoot from the dirt 🎉👏🥳🙌
@GracedStrapwort Your begonias are GORGEOUS, Deb! Keep us updated on your leaf propagations…I’m sure you’ll be successful 👍🏻
@SweetAzurebluet Your plants look so bright and happy, Harriet! 🙌
@MariansOasis I love the color of new Ficus leaves 🍃 ❤️ I sure hope you’re feeling better soon!
@debbiedo Thanks much, my dear! I am loving your Shell Ginger, 😍 it’s my first time, hearing of this plant.
