I have a hobby 3d design business where I make things, and I have a lot of planters. When I make a new one the routine is, buy plant, plant it, take pictures, make notes about how well it works or looks....

I just received what I thought was going to be a tiny cute air plant for this tiny cute container I bought. What I received instead is this massive, glorious, curly plant that is 1.5 feet tall. While I’m trying to figure out what to do with it, I’ve researched and vowed to take care of this super cool air plant that is...

more snails...

Let me know if you guys Want to see more I have tons of pics and eventually I plan to make a time lapse gif of the whole journey

Picture of a Sarracenia with many mouths, one of them being extremely long. There’s also a banana for scale

Post pics if you got em! I think mine is my dioscorea elephantipes (at least right now, it changes often). Grown from a seed, she’ll be a year old in July :)

I am having a heck of a time trying to research why she is the way she is and what to do about it. She’s definitely alive. I harvested a lot of little baby seedlings in her roots (which are growing beautifully btw). I’d love if someone can help me understand why she is the way she is and what I can do to promote stem and...

Has anyone had any success in growing a SourSop plant outside of the tropics? I’m In the NE United States and I’m going to try.

Not an ad or anything but I got it from light.bio if you’re curious. Super cool product, I’ve been waiting for a company to successfully bring a bioluminescent plant to the market for a decade and it finally happened!

Don’t know if there’s any Canadians on Lemmy that have ordered from Crystal Star Nursery but this is my third order and I’m so excited!

2020 - I got into houseplants....

My Pothos got a bit long and dropped leaves in the middle of its stem. I didn’t want to cut it directly since in my experience it would drop more leaves on the newly cut piece, so I wanted to try air layering. I’ve never done air layering before and didn’t want to use sphagnum moss, so I gave it a try with coco coir....

I was given a small pot with a single sad leaf to try and rescue. I was told it was an African violet. It was repotted and I gave it some fertilizer and it started producing this giant leggy looking leaves. Is this normal? A mutant? It doesn’t look like any violet I’ve seen....

All of my plants are next to the two spots I usually sit down. So when I have my big water cup out, I share a little with my plants and maybe pet their leafs for a second. It makes me happy to share my cuppy of water with my little plants. Apparently, this works really well and they are all growing like crazy! One of my fellas...

I am not all too knowledgeable about plants and wanted to try my hands with planting seeds and growing them indoors!...

Hello, so my daughter picked out this Dahlia on Sunday, and we’ve planted it last night, and we came home today seeing this....

Sorry if this is the wrong community or is redundant…...
