Plant Progress

Hi I’m Sevvie!! I recently moved, so I’m starting over with my plant collection. I’m passionate about plants, but I don’t know everything about them! It’s fun to fall in love with certain plants and learn how to care for them.

On this blog I will be keeping track of my plants’ growth over time. I may even post about bugs! In case I do, I will be sure to tag it accordingly.

I really miss my old plant collection. (pictured below) Hopefully my new one will grow to be just as impressive!

Update on my tradescantia cutting:

She’s looking a lot healthier since I put her in direct sunlight! She’s getting her purple color back and sprouting more at the nodes. She really bounced back!

I’d like to introduce you to my baby dragonfruit plants…. Or as I like to call them: bitayas

So far, the small ceramic pot is very productive in sprouting the seeds. The plastic one only managed to sprout two. I accidentally killed one of them… Does the ceramic retain the moisture better than the plastic? Maybe I should move the lone sprout to the ceramic? I’m very nervous about growing these.

I nabbed a string of pearls cutting and after a month of having it, it finally rooted! It’s so little, but I’m very hopeful and looking forward to seeing lots of growth!

I got more plants since the last time i posted! Bear with me as I introduce them here.

Not long after getting Lucky, I found a pretty sempervivum and got to bring it home. I had her in a cute bulbasaur pot, but she lost her purple tips. So now she’s sharing a pot with Lucky!

My grandma gave me her a small cactus she had for a year. It had a fake flower glued to its spines, so I removed it. I’ve noticed some growth since I’ve been taking care of it!

I got a pink polkadot plant in honor of the amazing polkadot plant i grew before i moved. The climate is so dry here compared to there, so i have to water her at least every other day. At the very least. No less or she’ll die! She grew her first flower today. 🥰

Very recently, I bought what i believe is a pink syngonium. She’s beautiful and ive never cared for a plant quite like her. I’m nervous but paying close attention to her needs.

Finally, the last plant I have bought is a jellybean jade! I had a couple of these before I moved, and I’m very happy to have them again. I’m gonna enjoy growing these!

Don’t tell anyone, but I nabbed a cutting from a store. Okay, LISTEN. It was $21 at one of the stores. I took a tiny flimsy cutting! If it doesn’t grow, shame on me for my plant crimes.

It didn’t survive but that’s okay because the one I got from my grandma is growing roots already :)

My grandma let me take a cutting of a plant from her yard. I don’t have a name for her yet, but Lucky has a new friend! I hope she grows roots soon. :)

My first plant since moving! This is Lucky. I found a four leaf clover in her pot and decided she’s good luck. 🍀

I overwatered her a little bit recently. White fungus grew on the top layer of the soil in her pot. I don’t have a bag of soil yet, so I picked the white fungi off by hand. Hopefully doing that gives me time to grab soil soon! Hang in there, Lucky!! 🤕
