  1. Houseplant hacks: can pothos help new cuttings to root?
    By Gynelle Leon

    The hormone-packed pothos plant might encourage healthy root growth in other cuttings – or it might not. But you’ve nothing to lose by trying

  6. Have a great week!

    I don’t know who said it first, but feel free to adapt it to your own context, in case you forgot how good you are.

    Have a great week everyone!

  7. 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.

  8. One of the things I really enjoy doing is trying to finish images with a few different looks to see what variety of ideas they can communicate. Most of the time, only one version ever sees the light of day. Here’s another look at the “SilentSunday” post from yesterday. This was my first (and typical) take on it but I thought it was better for #MonochromeMonday or maybe #MoodyMonday.

    The peace lily saga continues:

    Not only did the peace lily produce seeds: the seeds germinated, and now I have a number of ever so small peace lily seedlings.

    On March 2nd I sowed some seeds on a wet paper towel in a petri dish that sat in the windowsill.

    On March 29th some of the seeds seemed to have germinated (see first photo — can you spot the tiny roots?) and the germinated seeds were transferred to small pots that were kept in a “greenhouse” made from a plastic bag to avoid dehydration.

    The second photo was taken today (April 20th) and shows a couple of seedlings that have developed their first leaf. Match for scale.

    This is a project that has called for patience:

    The period from pollination to seeds took 4-5 months. Then it took roughly 1 month for the seeds to germinate, and 3 weeks later the seedlings have just a tiny leaf each. Things can still go wrong, but I'm pretty confident that I will end up having several mature peace lilly plants grown from seeds.

    Meanwhile, I have cross-pollinated two peace lily plants. One was the plant I've had for 10+ years. The other was a “miniature” plant I bought last summer, that was meant to sit on the very narrow windowsill in my bathroom. I was naive enough to hope that some gardener had developed a miniature cultivar of the peace lily, but I was fooled: the plant was just a baby plant of something that has now grown into a mature peace lily plant. Latipac be damned!

    Now I hope that the two plants are unrelated, and not just perpetuated clones, so that the cross-pollination introduces some genetic variability. Perhaps I am wiser at the end of 2024.

    I wish y'all a peace(lily)ful weekend.

    🕊️ Peace now! 🇵🇸 السلام الآن 🇮🇱 שלום עכשיו

  10. 🏵️🪴 Clivia.
    Krásně poprvé kvete, stačilo asi na 1..2 měsíce od prosince dát někam do chladu k oknu (teplota byla kolem 9°C) a skoro nezalévat.

  11. Hello @houseplants and @plants 👋

    Are you ready, guys? Now this adventure is getting really exciting:

    More than three months ago I hand-pollinated some still closed spadices of peace lily (Spathiphyllum) — see parent post.

    For a couple of weeks, one of the swollen spadices had become increasingly brown, and today I was sure there was no longer any connection to the stem or the mother plant, so I cut it off and broke it up on a lunch plate. (The three remaining spadices are still green.)

    We have seeds!! 🤸

    There may still be a long way to germination and plants, but undeniably having actual seeds feels like a huge progress. The pollination code has finally been broken!

    Yay! 😸

  13. 1st bloom has emerged 🙌

    #Anthurium #andraeanum ( #AKA #FlamingoFlower or #LaceLeaf or #PaintersPalette ). The #flowers are called #inflorescences & have two parts: the #spathe & the #spadix . This type of inflorescence is a #hallmark of the #plant family #Araceae that Anthurium adraeanum belongs to.

    In #NASA ’s #CleanAir #Study - A. andraeanum was #scientifically #proven to #remove #toxins like #formaldehyde & #ammonia from the air 🥰
