A friend of mine and I had gone antique/second-hand shopping, and I saw this trifle bowl in one of the shops we visited. I told her that it would be perfect for a terrarium. She went back and got it and had this made for me. I love it! #terrarium #TinyThings #plants

If Holly (Ilex aquifolium) finds its leaves are being nibbled by deer, it switches genes on to make them spiky when they regrow. So on taller Holly trees, the upper leaves (which are out of reach) have smooth edges, while the lower leaves are prickly. https://www.allforgardening.com/698586/if-holly-ilex-aquifolium-finds-its-leaves-are-being-nibbled-by-deer-it-switches-genes-on-to-make-them-spiky-when-they-regrow-so-on-taller-holly-trees-the-upper-leaves-which-are-out-of-reach-hav/


My #pothos clippings have been going crazy shooting new leaves up, but they ain't really growing longer yet. I guess #hydroponics is my path to a green thumb, because I've never had much luck keeping plants in dirt healthy.

The Cuetlaxochime native to Mexico, originally had nothing to do with Christianity or Christmas, they are sacred plants used in ceremonies to celebrate the birth of Huitzilopochtli during the winter solstices. Also used for medicinal and healing purposes to cure sicknesses, aid the flow of breast milk, as well as for dyeing fabrics.

Today's #parsley harvest from the indoor hydroponic
They were getting too tall and blocking the light for the ones in the back, so I trimmed the 14 plants I have in one of #IKEA #Växer units by the balcony door to dry them for later
I love the smell of fresh parsley and eat the stems as snack. They are so juicy and delicious.

I have a dormancy question. This is the first one for my one year old Venus Flytraps from seed. I seeded them *way* to close together (I know better now). I know the best time for separating them out is during the dormancy period, though when is the best time? Is it now when they are dormant for about a month or so with some green on them still or later closer to spring. If the latter do I just move the roots and rhizome?

It has been about 8 weeks since I put Foggy in the funky vase. What should I grow in the vase next?
Vote in my poll https://mastodon.art/@KarinWanderer/111535802695876620
Foggy, Avocado at Aww, is getting too big for his vase! He's top heavy & the roots don't have any traction in the vase, so the slightest breeze pushes him askew. I’m going to have to move him into a pot this weekend.🌱

Foggy Nelson, Avocado at Aww, will be transplanted from the funky vase to a proper pot this weekend- with dirt & everything!
What should I plant in the funky vase next?
It needs to be large enough to stay in the top of the vase & able to root in water.

Swingle citrumelo
Traded homemade muffins for a bunch of these fruit. It’s a hybrid between trifoliate orange and Duncan grapefruit and can be used as a lemon substitute - it supposedly can grow in zone 7 so might be more convenient for northern growers rather than bring a 🍋 tree indoors.
Watered and sweetened to lemonade, you can definitely taste hints of grapefruit.

Yo #plants / #gardening Masto, what should I do with this overgrown aloe I inherited?
It seems happy. A piece broke off and now that's happily rooted in another pot. Do I just leave it? Do I gotta split it or it'll die? Do succulents get root bound like other plants?
I don't really want another aloe plant, I'd like for this to just. You know. Not take over, heh. Do I just trim it back maybe? Break bits off? It seems very prone to having bits break off, guess that's how succulents do?

With a name like "hellroot" (amongst others), you'd expect this Orobanche minor to be really poisonous or something.
In truth, it's a parasite that has lost the ability to photosynthesize, attaching itself to another plant and stealing water and nutrients from it.
Quite pretty, in a hairy, slightly ominous way...
