houseplants

TL;DR: apparently the management at my apartment complex considers plants to be “Seasonal decoration.” Here’s the email chain:...

Working from home was a difficult transition for me, but adding plants (and having good light) make all the difference. I thought you folks would approve.

It’s my boyfriend’s birthday next month and I wanted to buy him a plant he hasn’t yet got. Currently we have:...

Gauging interest post. Do any of you fabulous folk want to help start a cutting swap community? Always loved them on reddit. Half of my collection is from those fine folks! :)

I’ve had this cactus for a few years, and for a while it’s had a problem where it grows so tall that it can’t stand up. You can see in the photo that I have it tied to some stakes to keep it upright - if not for those it would literally uproot itself in under a day....

All my plants living inside got a name. Am I the only one doing this?...

I have a ton of plants around my house and this is a small collection I put together behind my work desk! It includes:...

I let them callous over for a few days beforehand.

Repotted it into a 5gal bucket because large pots are pricyyyy. This tree is about 5 years old and has made hundreds of props that inhabit friend’s houses around town....
