So excited to see my greenhouse in a happier place! I’m sure, like so many of us, we are trying to counter all this crazy weather. It’s been so unpredictable; we’ve gone from a couple of days into the 80’s to freezing again! Which isn’t uncommon for Utah weather… but omg my poor plants. 🌱 πŸ˜‚ So we got smart and put a heat-reflecting greenhouse tarp over the roof. I can’t believe how much it lowers the heat! So happy to have done it. I got a second one to go over my outside plants as I adjust them to full sun again. #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #PlantTherapy #TheThread #TheWateringHole #GrowLights #PetsAndPlants #PlantCorner #BeforeAndAfter #PlantShelfie #RarePlants #PlantLove #Hoya #HoyaHangout #HoyaHeads #CitrusGrandPrix

I think this should do it! πŸ™ƒπŸ˜‰
@Idplantthat We've had crazy weather here too. Supposed to get another cool front tomorrow but not cold enough to have to bring everyone back inside. πŸ™ I'm so glad the tarp worked for you guys!! One of my moves I was packing up the uhauI It was so hot that my plants started drooping. Looked like they were having a heat stroke! Thank God we were only going a mile down the road otherwise they wouldn't have made it!
@princesspitstop oh gosh Heidi! Thank goodness you don’t have to move all your plants in again, that’s not only stupid hard on you, but it’s hard on the plants. I feel every day I’m checking the weather every few hours to make sure we aren’t changing eliminates again. πŸ™„πŸ˜’πŸ€£ I’m happy your ginger made the comeback and your other plant that you and your husband rescued! It’s a testament to your green thumb! How are your Philodendron silver sword and dark lord doing? I know you were saying that paste worked pretty well. Oh! How is that watchchain you got a little while back doing?
@Idplantthat No kidding! The only way I'd even consider moving again is if it were closer to our son. Hopefully the weather will level out soon 🀞 Girl lol I totally forgot that's where I planted it! πŸ˜‚ Lol AND the banana tree! I was so worried that it was a goner. I'm still propagating the Dark Lord from when I chopped the top off but I see little nubs coming from the nodes so we're good! I've got pics of the Silver Sword. The little ones are the node sections that I cut and propped in Sphagnum. Just recently put them in soil. Then the bigger guy is what was left after I chopped. I left nothing so it's grown that much. I used Keiki paste on my Rubber Tree where it had naked spots on the stem and it's filling in nicely! I'll send you a pic of Deloris in the morning πŸ₯°
I was in my kitchen working on a few plants; so don’t mind my dirty sleeve and fingers. But my majestic first picture and my zebra alocasia just got its first real big kid leaf! I’d been so fixated on the alocasia I didn’t notice my majestic had popped out two big kind leaves well! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜…πŸ«ΆπŸ»πŸŒΈπŸ©΅πŸ the last two are before to now. πŸ˜‚
@Idplantthat ugh your coffee plant looks SOOO good!! 😱🀩 Did you get a specific brand of tarp? That sounds like a great thing to have on hand! Your majestic looks amazing too!! 🀯😍😍
