@SirLiquorice , omg…those flowers are gorgeous!!🥰 How old is yours? I got mine about 8 months ago, no sign of “buds”, yet. 🙁
My #HensAndChicks do so much better outside my #CylindricalSnakePlant are having babies and my #SamuraiDwarf has doubled since we’ve moved! It’s a good time!
I have a new addition that I’m not entirely sure is a succulent it’s a #FairyWashboard that broke into pieces when I repotted it. I’m very excited about this new adventure and I can’t wait to get them into a terracotta planter
Newest additions from this week… as if I need more plants 🤷🏻♀️ anyways a couple of them like picture two needed some serious rehab 🧖🏻♀️ but I started the process last night when I couldn’t sleep.. so they are now on they’re way to a happy healthier life ✨ •pic 1-echeveria pink diamond 🌸 •pic 2- sand rose🏜️ •pic 3- sedum trelesi 🪴 •pic 4- (Left to right) Sempervivum oddity, crested Chrissy and Ryan, another sempervivem. •pic 5- silver spoons 🥄
#WhatTheSuccWednesday #GregGang #SucculentSquad #CactusClique #DidthisPlantmakemesick Here’s hoping everyone is having a productive week so far. I have had a little too much exposure to what I believe was a certain plant! I got a huge Red Ponytail Palm last Friday. Upon closer inspection I saw little black spots on it. I immediately thought OH no bugs! So with a paper towel and some water I tried to wipe down the individual leaves sometimes using my bare fingers. So far so good ; Saturday morning I woke up itching all over so it seemed. My skin was inflamed red splotchy. I thought great now you’ve got Poison ivy! I asked Dr. Google and ordered Cortizone 10 ointment, some calamine lotion, and Benadryl Antihistamine tablets. I barely got any sleep the itching was horrendous. I had to keep getting up and walking around. On Sunday after I couldn’t stand it anymore I drove to a walk-in emergency clinic. My original diagnosis was only halfway confirmed bc it could also have been a caustic burn. Okay not really helpful I left with a prescription for an ointment and one for Prednisone which I was not planning on taking! Little did I know! The following Monday was excruciating I applied the ointment to one area and another area immediately began to itch. I saw no option other than to get the Prednisone prescription filled. I spent Tuesday wrapping myself in cold compresses but as soon as the itching subsided a little it started to itch elsewhere like a catch 22. Then this morning I started on the Prednisone therapy one day down and 14 to go! But I am happy to report that the itching is almost gone. Have to see how tonight is going to go. I guess I got totally sidetracked, therefore a second post will follow bare with me!
I thought my #PurplePitcherplant was done for and going dormant. I chopped off two pitchers and the next day, that front green one popped out!
#HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #SucculentSquad #CactusClique Here are the new additions to the Oasis: first we have the Caralluma Speciosa, second is Greenovia Wine Cup, third is the Agave Dwarf Butterfly, the Echeveria Raindrops is last
@FirstCanna I joined around the time you put these together and I must say these are so well balanced and have filled out so nicely ! Great work ✨🪴🌸
@MercifulMostii thanks ! Me too, I think that might be what draws me to succulents the most ! That and all the fun unique shapes 🤩
@SwiftMedeola I don’t think I’ve even had it for 8 months. But I picked the one at the nursery that seemed like it would get the most buds. I’ve had it for a few months for sure and it’s surprisingly drought tolerant. When the leaves start pointing up it needs water and then they’ll flatten back out. Pretty interesting how they do that.
@SirLiquorice for real, no reason it should be such a great specimen. And it was putting out great pups despite its challenges. Resilient plant
@FitBrowallia No unfortunately I still don’t know for sure what caused this horrible rash. I strongly suspect that it is from the urushiol oil that could have come from the plant I tried to clean. That oil is bad, bad, bad and it lives on surfaces for 5 years. There’s only one thing that will get it off the skin and that’s a product called “Zanfel “ I hope no one else ever runs into this. You can also test if you touched poison ivy. By doing the so called “black dot test” But be very careful, wearing gloves is essential!!! You tear a leaf in half put the sap on a white piece of paper. If it turns out to be Poison ivy the Urushiol oil will turn black in 30 minutes. That being said I hope nobody will ever need to do anything like that. But it’s good to know!
I also have another #WhatTheSuccWednesday plant that needs showcasing #GregGang I’ve been so preoccupied with my new fish tank that I haven’t really been paying attention to my plants. Hope my #PeperomiaHope has grown leaps and bounds since last #WhatTheSuccWednesday in fact she’s grown so much I’ve had to move her into a bigger home.
@FirstCanna as are yours 😍
