We got our heat-reflective sun tarps up, so I’ve been moving things in and out of the garage all day. I forgot how heavy big planters can be, and how much I don’t work out! πŸ€£πŸ™ƒ Moving plants can be my workout routine until I forget to care about it again. πŸ˜…πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #SucculentLove #PlantTherapy #GrowLights #PetsAndPlants #PlantCorner #TheThread #TheWateringHole #TradescantiaNanouk #TipsandTricks
I LOVE πŸ’• how cute frankincense is!
I know my greenhouse needs to be cleaned unbelievably badly! I’m just waiting for nights to be regularly in the 50s before moving plants out; I’ll sacrifice the look over the health any day. 🀣
I also have to say I love the voodoo dolls and that style, so don’t be surprised if you see those things in photos 🀣🫢🏻🌸🩡🐝🐾
@Idplantthat omg! Love that frankincense!! And that succulent garden from @vvvelo is looking GREAT

What is the hoya in this 4th picture please on your first comment!? 😍😍
And girl, I know!! I just went at my compost pile with a pitchfork and shovel and that’s definitely a workout for the day πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
Yes I know . I’ve had to put 50% shade tents over my babies to protect them from the blazing sun and leaking greenhouse when it rains too hard. I like these as they’re very light weight and can be taken off and on to match the sunlight.
@Idplantthat I’ve never seen a frankincense plant. Thank you for sharing.
@DreamMachine, are you referring to this one? These are both actually citrus fruit trees πŸ€£πŸ˜‰ just variegated versions.
@BEsucculent I love your greenhouse idea. I’ve looked at those tents πŸ•οΈ for plants before! I’m so happy you shared that they work. I’m definitely going to have to get into a little more.
@RousingSourwood thanks, Beth! I honestly had never seen a frankincense plant before I got a few of them. 🀣 But they are beautiful and easy to care for.
@Idplantthat oh no sorry, this one, the other comment πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Is it a hoya caudata?!
@Idplantthat it would help for me to actually post the screenshot 🀣
@DreamMachine I believe it’s a Hoya undulata; I have a red undulata as well. They are really cool ones! I’m glad you showed me the picture because I apparently can’t figure it out. 🀣🫢🏻🌸🩡🐝
@Idplantthat how are you able to have sum in a garage?
@TooUnique1 I have an unheated garage; but we have electricity in it, so we use a combination of grow lights; C9 to C7 Christmas lights, and a combination of other heat sources. We also hung up some older-style heavy moving blankets that you see a lot in service elevators to allow us to keep more heat in. Then our garage has two garage doors on each side; the door going into the back to the yard is well open and lets the plants acclimate to summer temperatures easier. πŸ˜‰ It’s worked for us really well.
