No chili plants this year, but instead an overall improvement. Hopefully I'll get this balcony more green next year. And those concrete walls need covering.

Made some more floral #pollinator pots for some local plant buying customers. I only sell very healthy plants, in enriched soil & feed them before selling so buyers don't need to do much except transplant & keep up regular watering. I gift extra #plants to many regulars too.

I can't tell if my parlor palm is doing better or worse. The day I brought it home I noticed some of the tips were a little dull and they slowly turned from brown to yellow. I guess it's about the same and they are slow growers, plus my cat keeps using it as a snack, so maybe that's why I can't tell. 😅 I'm just watering it and fertilizing it as instructed. But my maranta is rapidly growing a leaf! Pretty exciting to watch. Two days ago it was barely peeking through.

I grew a cherry tomato and a marigold from seed. When my toddler snapped the marigold in half, I was sad. My ‘cherry tomato’ here trying to cheer me up with a marigold flower. 😂 🤦♀️ https://www.allforgardening.com/502654/i-grew-a-cherry-tomato-and-a-marigold-from-seed-when-my-toddler-snapped-the-marigold-in-half-i-was-sad-my-cherry-tomato-here-trying-to-cheer-me-up-with-a-marigold-flower/

I am trying to get 4 tomato plants in pots out on my back patio to survive the awful bugs that kill them every year
I read that peppermint is a good bug deterrent so I wiped a little peppermint oil on the edges of each pot
I plan on buying netting to keep birds away too and I will look for other bug repellent plants to set near my pots
What else should I do to minimize bugs pls? There's so many types in huge numbers near this 100yr old WV house

It’s my birthday week so I spoiled myself with plants. They got potted up today.
My mum and a friend are coming to visit this weekend and I can’t wait to show them all my plants.
The newbies are:
- Echeveria Doublette
- Echeveria Calico Cream
- Echeveria Zanadoo
- Echeveria unknown bumpy (the mother plant was stunning)
- Echeveria Flying Cloud
- Echeveria Hakuhou (if anyone knows how to pronounce that I’d appreciate the help)
- Echeveria Lotus Lantern?
- Echeveria Black Rose hybrid?
- Echeveria Blue Peacock
- Echeveria Winter Jasmine
- Conophytum Bilobum

Plants have body clocks that regulate their growth and responses to the environment. Light-sensitive proteins reset their clocks daily, affecting their interactions with pests and diseases. Consider these clocks when cultivating and managing plants.

Feed Store employees forgot to water their Starts; had to have a clearance sale to try and recoup losses. Brought these 16 babies back from the dead and it only cost me $16 and a two gallons of cistern water. Now to see where they are going.

All four of our Devil's Tongue babies are growing. I am very excited. 😊
I love these odd plants.
They're all foliage in the summer but, in the early spring, they produce a single giant dark red flower that smells like death. (It's related to the corpse flower.)
With our luck, they'll all flower next January and stink up the house. 😄

Buffalo Gourd Blossoms
I returned to Calabacillas Arroyo this weekend. Apparently the dragonflies and hummingbirds only come out when I'm not carrying my camera.
I did manage to capture a native gourd (that can be found all over the area.) The gourd itself will be spherical and about fist-sized.

Covered the 220L reservoir of the Kratky Hydroponic with woods I salvaged from a pallet
Used the staple gun and part of the optical cable left over from the installation last year to tie them together.
I might paint the wood with protective paint to keep it from rotting but at least, it is keeping the nutrient rich water cool during the hot sunny days that are coming.

One kind of underground fungi absorb up to a third of our fossil fuel emissions. But don't get your hopes up, as another more populous type release far more carbon in decomposition.

as i was weeding the other day, i found what i think is a tiny #papyrus plant! i must have planted it & forgotten.
it looks just like the larger papyrus i have elsewhere (pic 3), including the distinguishing "tall bit with more leaves coming out" (pic 2).
i still haven't figured out exactly where papyrus wants to live in our climate, but these ones aren't dead yet!
they're meant to grow in water, but the air is water here, so they can grow in soil maybe



in the town nearest to me, they hate trees. last year they cut down two giant lychee trees. in another part of the parking lot (the town is mainly parking lot), they cut down a bunch of conifers, but left the cell phone tower disguised as a tree.
and now this. the tiny post office cut down this perfectly fine plumeria. what is the reason? what did the plumeria do to them?? drop leaves??
even the buddhist temple does it! they killed a huge monkeypod tree on their lawn.

Ohhh, my first Jolly Jester is so gorgeous today! 😍 This is 3 days after it began opening. We call her Gertrude.

My seedling from #Tradescantia zebrina 'Little Hill' is doing well!

This friend ate up all the Clarkia elegans in one part of the garden and then got lost in the white sage, which they didn’t like at all. I moved them to another patch of Clarkia, where they are now chowing down again happily, as you can see here. This friend will grow up to be a White-lined Sphinx Moth, a.k.a. Hummingbird Moth, with a 2 to 3 inch wingspan. I hope it leaves me a few Clarkia plants because I do love their bright pink flowers. #garden #insects #Caterpillar #Photo #moth #plants

i'm using some #aloe to heal a cut on the side of my toe. every time i use aloe, i'm just amazed. the aloe plant uses the healing properties of its juicy insides to heal its *own* wounds, and the same stuff heals *my* wounds. if that doesn't tell you how much us & the plants are related, then i don't know what will!
do any of you grow/use aloe?

as someone who likes to grow orchids, i enjoy seeing how they grow "in the wild". it helps me understand the conditions i'm trying to create for them in cultivation.
observing orchids in the forest led me to creating "forest floor mix" medium (using stuff i find on the forest floor), & now "forest canopy" medium (using stuff that is found in the canopy: moss, leaf litter, dried branches, etc.). yay learning!
i found a baby #orchid growing in the bark & moss of a dead 'ohi'a lehua branch.
i'm guessing the seed landed in the moss patch on the bark (many 'ohi'a have moss growing on their bark). the moss provides a stable, moist, cool, shady env't that still has airflow. the orchid's root burrows into the flaky outer bark bits of the 'ohi'a & then grab onto the tree itself.
anyway, i kept the whole thing together & found a new tree nook for it to live in ^-^



Its always a red letter day when I see Goatsbeard in flower. Not that it's at all rare, just that it only flowers in the morning, closing up after just one morning per flower, and I'm really not a morning person. At

Hey, love this hashtag!
These are from my friend's garden, and she took the time to take these lovely photos. 😊
The pink one is a Ranunculus and the blue one is a "Love in a Mist".
Last summer we had an anole #lizard that lived on our #sunflower #plants in the front #garden. It was there night and day, sleeping, catching bugs, hanging out, for many weeks. Maria Eva decided it needed a name - Lorenzo. Now we have a new set of #sunflowers growing and have been waiting for the return of this year’s Lorenzo. Yesterday, there he was, or possibly an offspring, so Maria Eva dubbed this one El Niño.

How does this work? Planted star jasmine vines two days ago in large containers by the arbors. They were about 24” tall from base and have a 15” support rod as shipped. Today they are almost 3’ tall AND each is growing in the direction on the arbor posts! I was planning on adding 40” support rods tomorrow and loosely tying them to rods to train them towards the posts. Astonished all 4 plants are going naturally to the arbors! #Plants #Vines #Phoenix
