Went on a plant run today!

2025/1/17 Edited to

A plant run is not just an outing; it's an opportunity to enhance your living environment with vibrant greenery. When visiting local nurseries or plant shops, consider what types of plants suit your home—whether indoor plants like succulents, air plants, or more vibrant outdoor options to brighten up your garden. Additionally, understanding how to care for new plants is essential. Research proper watering techniques, light requirements, and the best soil types based on your new purchases. Many local nurseries also offer great advice on how to nurture your plants for optimal growth. Moreover, if you're a beginner, look for low-maintenance plants that can thrive with minimal care to build your confidence. Participating in online plant communities can also provide insights and support as you expand your plant collection. Happy planting!

your plant hasn’t grown in months… check this first 👀

I repotted my bird of paradise and it was completely root bound — like barely any soil left, just roots wrapped around each other this is one of the biggest reasons plants ‘stall’ and stop putting out new leaves what happens is: • roots run out of space • water drains too fast or not at all •

A display of potted plants, including potato plants labeled "POTATO KENNEBEC," on a wooden table. An orange sale sign advertises "75% OFF," reducing the price from $4.29 to $1.07 each. The text "A potato plant?" is overlaid on the image.

A potato plant?

My brother came to visit and told me that he bought a potato plant from a local store. I was really confused, because I was taught to just put some old potato’s in a dark place and they would grow. I went to the same store and they in fact had potato plants for sale. #storytime #lemon8challenge

I’m glad I live a block away from my sister. I texted her seeing if she wanted to go to the Orchid sale at Washington Park’s dome garden. My sister isn’t one to do plants. Which is hilarious cuz she bought one. One of the most high maintenance plants out there and she got one. Well we both got one.
