@Preciousplants1 · Answer

@TheConservator yes 👏🏽 2 newbies, a teenager and an early adult stage one. I’m elated lol

@YesWaiuatua7 · Answer

@Idplantthat lol 😂 I had a ghost maple planted in the front yard and one day a law enforcement officer knocked on my door.
I was informed that there were complaints that I was growing a pot plant in the yard!!!
I just started laughing lmao! He was so flabbergasted that I was laughing at him so I took him to the tree and showed the tags that were left on purpose for that reason.
He said he would talk to all the complaining neighbors and explain it was a real tree. Then he said “And what a beautiful tree it is “ then walked off. Sadly the next spring it died during a flood.
Best of wishes on your beauty!

@Preciousplants1 · Answer

@TheConservator wow that some Hoya, biggest I’ve seen yet. Let me shake you hand🤝 that one alone deserves an award 🥇 not to mention all the other beauties you’ve displayed I’m so jealous lol 😂

@SeasonalFanmoss · Answer

@TheConservator I have some new growth on my Venus flytrap.  I haven’t had it long so I’m hoping it will become much fuller and grow new traps!

@TheConservator · Answer

Nice! Lots of sun and it will snap right out of it @SeasonalFanmoss

@YesWaiuatua7 · Answer

@Preciousplants1 thank you!  Name is Maple so there’s been lots of different varieties of them trees growing in this yard over the years but so far only the red maple and the  Japanese lace leaf maple have made it through our floods in this yard and they are thriving so I’m thankful. Have a great weekend

@SeasonalFanmoss · Answer

@TheConservator it’s doesn’t get much natural sun but I have it under a grow light.  How far above the plant would you recommend the grow light?

@PlantedApart · Answer

Happy #FreshLeafFriday #GregGang I just bought two new columbine flowers and they definitely need a little TLC. But they are my favorite flowers and I can’t wait to see how they grow. Any advice anyone has on how to take care of these beauties will be greatly appreciated

@SeasonalFanmoss · Answer

@TheConservator well it says the white lights are 6000k and red lights are 600mm.  That’s all I see that it says. Don’t see watts.  I don’t have any experience with grow lights lol.

@SeasonalFanmoss · Answer

@TheConservator Lol, no I’ve had it a good while and threw the box away.  Here is a pic.

@LoyalYellowrose · Answer

This Rex has given three new leaves since bringing home! I think I even see a bloom forming, which excites me, have no clue what it will look like!

@TheConservator · Answer

@SeasonalFanmoss  6" should be fine I'd say

@BabeVila · Answer

Oh I just saw this! Haha thanks for the feature! 🥰 And everyone has such gorgeous plants, I’m drooling over here! 😍🪴

@LucidAgapanthus · Answer

@PioneerRutabaga sometimes; but it is more commonly known as fairy elephants feet or toes

@PioneerRutabaga · Answer

@LucidAgapanthus ohhh ok…I knew it was something about elephants feet or toes something like that lol…I assume you care for them the same way ya care for baby toes, yes? No?

@LucidAgapanthus · Answer

@PioneerRutabaga yeah, I feel like they need a little more water in my environment though. They also are a lot more tight clumped in terms of leaf growth.

@LaneyLichen · Answer
