Does anyone else have a Rose of Jericho, AKA resurrection plant? It's neat and it's fun to watch open up when you water it! #roseofjericho #ressurectionplant #plantaddict #planttherapy #greggang

@JesssJungle I don't think I have ever heard of a Rose of Jericho, certainly never seen one until now. Seems appropriate to be showing a resurrection plant over Easter🐰🐣 new life and all that 🐰👍👍 I will have to search now for a video of one in action. Thanks for sharing
@JesssJungle i managed to find a really cool time-lapse of the plant - impressive!!

@JesssJungle yes, the music but I am equally impressed with the plant as I have never seen that before, super cool plant. Thanks for alerting me to it 😎
@JesssJungle you have some great plants! I didn't realise it took days to open but it would be fun to use a time lapse camera. A nice gift 🎁
@ballondusoleil , oh cool!! I didn't know that!! There's actually two in this bowl. Maybe I should plant one!!
@JesssJungle I haven't been able to find much more info but the little I did learn is that there's two types - only a true RoJ can be planted in soil after being revived in water. A false RoJ is actually a type of spike moss that should only be in water. But both are considered resurrection plants. So neat to learn about them!
I have one!
Mine lives outside and this bowl was absolutely full of water a couple days ago when I checked on it from the HUGE storm we had on Sunday. It turned green again. Has been rained on heaps and sat in water for hours, but wasn't turning green for a good couple years, but this absolute drenching woke it up real well!
