  3. Like a fool going into a pets at home and buying a rabbit with no research, a month ago I went to a garden centre and bought a random succulent. I didn't realise PVN are super picky!!

    Is my new plant son fine? Is tall good?? I simply don't know . #houseplants #houseplantcare #succulents

  4. #HouseplantCare #Ficus #VarigatedFicus

    This was gifted to me today. It's a Variegated Ficus, and I don't believe it's ever been repotted. I will have to break that pot to get it out.

    I am not familiar with these at all. How to proceed? Repotting is a must, but trimming I am not sure of. Big cuts could kill it, and I know they are a milky sap producer; I don't want to introduce infection. Better to trim all the ends and hope it fills in?

    Do I loosen the root ball or leave it to enjoy new soil and larger pot?

    Yes, there's a pooper scooper on the shed behind it!

  5. Have started using the water from rinsing rice to water our houseplants and for the first time in seven years our geraniums are flowering!
