Oh and I decided more featured posts is good so here we go!

😌 @debbiedo is right! Sometime you have to purge some babies that don't bring you joy and pass them along to someone new. Then you have a clean space and (in theory room for more plants 🀭). More photos of the plants that made the cut πŸ‘‰πŸ» https://greg.app/question/2L2EQY

Thank you for the feature!
@NewbieSprout this is a beautiful setup, I’d never leave!! 🀩
Thank you so much! #FreshLeafFriday πŸ‘πŸ’—πŸͺ΄
Well, Castiel took two weeks to finally show off his new leaf. He still has to unfurl a little bit but he is gorgeous to me
@Ninabeena a stunner πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ
@RJG thank you so much 😊
never be sorry for fresh leaves @coffeeNcalathea !!
@elisenavidad thank you so much!
Some of my growth and bloomies!
@coffeeNcalathea I love your polka dot begonia! All your plants look healthy and happy!
Here’s a few of the growers we have here 🀣🀣🀩🀩
@Macstracks That cactus flower is gorgeous!!!
@JauntyGrandfir Right!! 🀩🀩🀩 CoCo be showing off
@Macstracks Well I’m a huge fan! Go Coco!!
So much happening for us all! Love spring and summer! β˜€οΈβ˜€οΈβ˜€οΈ happy ficus, another new peduncle on shooting star Hoya, new teeny leaves on another Hoya, and itty bitty Variegated ivy! #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #FreshLeafFriday
@JauntyGrandfir GO COCO GO!! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
@coffeeNcalathea πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜ Home Office I Love It!!
Some spider plant props I repotted. The ones in the green pot are some of the very first babies my reverse variegated plant gave me. They were busting out of their old pots; can't wait to see them explode in a few weeks.

The other pictures are very new propagations, so please forgive their scraggly appearance. They'll perk up once they're settled into their new home. πŸ’šπŸŒ±πŸ’šπŸŒ±
Love seeing everyone’s plants so beautiful. I am new at this so currently obsessing over plants keeping my fingers crossed that I can keep them healthy and they can survive. οΏΌ
@coffeeNcalathea πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ€œπŸ€›
Butts...that top one is getting closer on depleting the parent's leaves.
@Macstracks great pics!!πŸ₯°
@coffeeNcalathea it’s Hoya callistophylla I’m not sure if that’s the black cat πŸˆβ€β¬›. I know there’s some debate about that. The leaves are one of my favorites out of all my plants.
@MariansOasis 😍😍 Oohh Thank you..The plant babies did most of the work πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
@UltraKoreanfir sooo Cool 😍😍😍
#FreshLeafFriday All my plants are literally growing wild. Here are my top 5 this week. Alo Zebrina Tigrina pushing a new leaf out. My only PON begonia Chlorosticta hasn’t shed any leaves since receiving her. She is filling out with 3 new leaves. Philo El Choco’s pretty new leaf finally unfurled. I couldn’t be more happy with Syngonium T24 variegation…it is just 🀌 And finally my new Hoya Sarawak, she needed no time at all to acclimate. She has 3 new sun stressed leaves. β™₯️ #NewGrowth
Emryn is a free plant I received with an order. I thought she was going to die on me, I left her alone and found new growth yesterday. So excited. Can’t wait to see her grow
@RJG a fernie little fern I picked up for a few dollar to go in with my jungle. Can someone confirm the species for me as it did not come with ID, I think it is an elk horn fern. I love the pot too.
@Seymour I think it is too
@Seymour You need to name it β€œTiny Tot” πŸ€œπŸ€›πŸ™ŒπŸ™ŒπŸ™Œ
@coffeeNcalathea loving the begonia leaves. ☺️
@coffeeNcalathea yay! I know you were waiting just like I was πŸ€—
Fresh new leaves coming up. Poor lighting on the arrowhead pic but I’m excited to see how big this one may get. 😁. Fresh leaf on the calladium that will survive the purge, very happy aglaonema with leaves growing everywhere, and one of the two new leave on the Alocasia YucatΓ‘n Princess.
πŸ‘Έ πŸ’šπŸͺ΄
This my money tree named Queen. It’s mainly because of the new growth that makes me think of the song Don’t Stop Me Now, which I am listening to as I type this. πŸ˜‰
I also have a few rolled up and ready to pop on one of my monsteras. Time for me to clean those leaves.
Happy #FreshLeafFriday ! Pic 1 is new growth on my coral colored Thanksgiving cactus. Pic 2 is my pink blush aloe sprouting a new leaf. Pic 3 is the crowded Haworthia pups I got from @Lifeis2short back in November. I know they have probably put out new growth before, but it has been easier to see now. I have lots of new growth, but no blooms or new pups . I confess to being a little envious of all those new succulent blooms and pups! #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove
@coffeeNcalathea Thank you very much. My bego collection has gradually grown. It took a bit of time to learn the more challenging variety.
Ahhh twice in a row! Thank you @RJG! Here she is! πŸ’š
@PrimoGhostplant you’ve got the new growth going on! That’s quite a bloom stalk on that aloe!!
@UltraKoreanfir Those are looking good! I am a little scared to try those at this point.
@Macstracks beautiful plants and great pics!
My white Wizard unfurled another leaf, a lot going on with my monstera, my paraiso verde is coming around and my Philodendron Monstera is getting over shipping
A few of my busy babes 😍😍
Brought her home, gave her a new pot and she gave me a new tall and stunning leaf πŸƒ 🀩 #ThaiConstellationMonstera #FreshLeafFriday
@Seymour love this 😍
Happy #freshleaffriday y'all!!! πŸ’š
@coffeeNcalathea hello! I love your pinstripe plant and I have the same one except mine is s till a baby. How long does it take for them to start growing new leaves
Wow, thanks for the feature @RJG !!! ☺️ And Happy #FreshLeafFriday everyone!
I have been so focused on my new babies I didn’t see the older kids growing like wildfire. Here they are strong beautiful growing tall.
2nd set. Aren’t they gorgeous
Hello!! Sharing the new leaves on my two monsteras, and my blushing philodendron.
Glad to see the plant babies are as happy as I am #FreshLeafFriday #HappyPlants #NewGrowth #ColoradoMountainGang
#FreshLeafFriday #GregGang #NewGrowth #HappyPlants #NewLeafAlert Hello and a very happy Friyay to all of you! Today I want to show off some of my more prolific plants and numero uno is the Philodendron Black Cardinal, the last leaf is not fully grown and a new one is in development, so exciting!The next plant would also fall under the weirdest plant category. The Cyanotis Somaliensis is growing crazy wild. As soon as the lower leaves are done and dry out the top explodes with new leaves. I can’t even keep up with getting rid of all the dead /dried out leaves. Then there’s number three, It’s only been in the Oasis since April and it’s doing very well as you can see by all the new growth. Although the Dorstenia Foetida is a Succulent it fits right in with its tremendous leaf growth and it’s blooming. The flowers on this plant don’t look like flowers we are used to, they resemble more or less little stars and that’s what makes them unique ! The next plant is the Cordyline Fruiticosa « Kiwi «  also known as the Hawaiian Ti plant. Well that’s wraps it up for today. Have a relaxing rest of the day and a great weekend. Stay safe out there !
What do I do with this flowering branch?
@coffeeNcalathea don’t be sorry your plants are beautiful
Everyone your plants are beautiful. I added a few more plants to my wishlist. ❀️😘😘🌸🏜️🌡
@FitBrowallia yes they are gorgeous!
My plants have been thriving, resulting in lots of new growth. 😁 I love the growing season.
I want to thank everyone for showing their beautiful lovelies. I needed some joy today ❀️
dolores went through a health scare with black spot, but after furiously pruning off infected leaves for the last couple of weeks she's back and better than ever. which is great because i already lost her sister last year from disease and i don't need two dead magnolias on my record. who knows, maybe i'll look into getting a new friend for dol soon.
@TycoonCorncob Welcome to the Greg community. Nice Raven ZZ plant, and a great choice for a low light, easy care plant. Just recently got one as well just to keep my regular ZZ plant company πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£
@Ms.Persnickety I like zz plants and love the Raven.this is my first re potted and got 2 , could of had 5 , but no pots lol.
@Ms.Persnickety That Dorstenia has a down right 😎 cool flower!
@RefinedSandwort These certainly aren't my first try. I think a lot of times when you buy them, they've already been watered incorrectly, and there's no way for you to know, really. The small ones are the ones that I am most happy with because I got them at Christmas time in bulk to make presents for coworkers, and everything with those is still going well. 😁
A day late but here you go, @RJG This is my Jade plant Trudy; my Vining Peperomia Harry; my Moses-In-The-Cradle, Moses; my Jade Pothos, Scarlett; and, Naomi, one of my bird nest ferns. Cheers to new growth! πŸ₯‚
@RefinedSandwort look how straight and tall and beautifully colored they are 😍 they look very happy!
Some of my babies I haven’t added yet. Now I’m not adding until they have been in my care for 6 weeks.
More
I’m loving cacti more and more. They seem to be my thing.
@learydarrel you've come so far into aroids. I've really enjoyed watching your oasis grow
@Gustavo now that I've expanded the total you may become a staple as you have such great plants and plant photography
@RJG thank you sir
@RJG aaaaaah thank you for your kind words! Two of my favourite things are plants and photography! πŸ’š hope this does happen, not because of the shout outs but because I genuinely love it!
@MomentousBonsai Those luscious green leaves in the third picture, I can’t stop looking at them! So beautiful is it a Bird of Paradise?? 😍πŸ₯°πŸ‘πŸ‘
@Ms.Persnickety she is! She has a lot of damage, but starting to perk up.
I had separated the original double plant and this one is in the original glass wine bottle planter. And it’s growing! And putting out more babies. I think it likes the grow light!
