    We're rescuing this #jadeplant from my MIL
    😢
    I would love to get some advice from someone knowledgeable about jades. 🙏
    It was being kept outside in the shade, so only indirect light. We're in N TX == 100 degrees for the last several weeks. I believe she was watering it very frequently.
    The last time I saw it was a couple months ago, and it was gorgeous.
    Help! What do?

  6. Yesterday while I was watering the Hoya kerii I accidentally broke off a leaf. When life gives you leaves, make new plants.

    Good morning everyone ☕️

  7. My Hoya carnosa Hindu Rope is finally going to bloom.

  8. Been a while. Lets do a new #introduction post.

    I'm Erika, a Canadian with a cat, a husband, and my first baby on the way (due in October). :queercat_autism: :queercat_enby: :queercat_ace: :QueerCat_Bisexual:

    2026 has been a year of big changes for me. I lost someone close to me, been #Pregnant every day of the year so far, started a new job, and will be moving into my new home in the next month or two. I'm looking forward to re-watching Twin Peeks with my husband in the newborn sleep-deprived trenches.

    Hobbies at the top of my mind right now are writing to #PenPals, #Reading, #Journaling, #Knitting, and figuring out my ideal use of #ObsidianMD. I also enjoy all sorts of #Crafting such as #Crochet, #CrossStitch, #SlowStitching, #Mending, #NeedleFelting, and #BookBinding. I do a lot of the #Cooking and #Baking in my home since I don't have a commute outside of my cat tripping me on my way to and from my office. Other things I spend my time on include #TarotReading, #FountainPens, #DnD, #SoloRPG, #HousePlants, #CozyGames. I'm really looking forward to getting back to #WeightLifiting and my usual #Yoga.

    I'm still a #Salesforce consultant, focused on not-for-profits. And, of course, I like ants.

  9. Peperomia obtusifolia (often called a baby rubber plant).

    The funny rattail-like growths are its flowers which drop off after a week or so.

  10. I've got a large ficus in a pot that sits on top of a tray of rocks that I fill with water. The plant, uh, found a way and extended roots down into the tray.

    Can I just cut them off, or should I leave them be?

  11. Yesterday I noticed a little moss growing in a shady spot on the sunroom exterior, so I harvested a small piece and put it in with the pinguicula. It just looks cool .

  13. CW: Introduction post with lots of hashtags

    New server, new #Introduction, I guess

    I'm an #ActuallyAutistic #Queer person in #Edinburgh, #Scotland. I usually post about my interests or random thoughts in my head. I also often complain about technology around me. I also like to read about sustainability. Trying to keep my #HousePlants alive.

    What you should know is I'm lactose intolerant. So please keep dairy away from my feed, haha.

    I like watching #SciFi ( #StarTrek, #StarGate, #DoctorWho, and others), but I also like #MurderMystery. If you don't want to be murdered, don't go to Cabot Cove ( #MurderSheWrote). Occasionally I watch some #musical.

    I try to get better at Go ( #weiqi, #baduk)

    For games I usually play on my #NintendoSwitch (casual gamer - #MarioKart, #AnimalCrossing, #MarioParty, main series of #Mario, #Splatoon, #WarioGames, and more) and #BoardGames (a casual fan - I genuinely enjoy playing #Cluedo and #Munchkin. I also enjoy #Fluxx, #GiveMeTheBrain, #Scrabble, #TheSettlersOfCatan, Pandemic (that hashtag would be confusing), #ExplodingKittens, #Dixit, and more)

    #TheHobbit is still my favourite book, but I also like #MissMarple, #Poirot, and #SherlockHolmes. #TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy series is great. So is #Discworld by #TerryPratchett. Enjoyed #EarthSea series.

    I like to drink #Tea, especially #GreenTea. Enjoy animated shows like #Daria, #Amphibia, #TheOwlHouse, #ScoobyDoo, #GravityFalls, #BobsBurgers, #SpyXFamily, #InvaderZim, #DuckTales, #AvatarTheLastAirbender, old #TheSimpsons, #SpongeBob, and others

    Occasionally watch some #KDrama

    Fan of #sriracha

    For geeks:
    Second hand #ThinkPad user running #FreeBSD with #XFCE. Web browsing in #Librewolf and #links2. #Tabs over #Spaces and I use nano.

  14. Houseplant hacks: should you always quarantine new plants to avoid pests spreading?
    By Gynelle Leon

    Any new addition to your collection can contain stowaways, so you’d be wise to deploy a little patience – but how long is long enough?

  15. Houseplant hacks: can willow water act as a rooting hormone?
    By Gynelle Leon

    This is one of those rare homemade concoctions that works, though it might not outperform a good commercial product

  18. I bought three $1 succulents from the clearance section of a local big box store a few days ago, and today I potted them all and found they're in excellent health...

    so I'm going back at 10 pm on a Sunday to buy the entire rest of the clearance succulent rack.

    I *am* taking questions at this time, primarily if the questions are "why are you so awesome," "how many succulents are there," and "are you going to name them."

  20. A pumice rock planting with a large ping, an Australian pitcher plant, string of turtles, tiny tears, and moss. This is the first time I have attempted this kind of a planting. This is a few months old. I will like it a lot more when the moss has grown in. #moss #mosstodon #pinguicula #insectivores #pitcherplants #houseplants #carnivorousplants

  21. These are not great photos, but I will keep trying. #DroseraCoccicaulis “Alba” is flowering. #sundew #drosera #insectivores #houseplants #flowers I was not prepared for how often sundew bloom. That is such a delight!

  22. The same plants. The first picture is from October. The second picture is from just the other day. I love pings so much! #houseplants #MexicanPinguicula #insectivores #carnivorousplants #plants

  23. Velvety Gynura Aurantiaca before I pinched off the blooms. The sparkly one is a Pinguicula Cyclosecta, and it actually digests bugs. I noticed that there was a tiny baby plant just forming at the base. #houseplants #carnivorousplants #insectivores
