#houseplants!

[pallanophblargh]

Well, at least I have some house plants that are coming along. Top two photos are the purple passion vine cuttings that are doing very well. And apparently my sansevieria is mildly stressed (root bound?) because here it is flowering! They smell very nice, even if they are a tad bit strong. They smell a bit like my hoyas, which have started to bloom again. So many sticky flowers in this house, making sticky nectar messes.

The plants are helping me through some burnout blues. Top two photos are "Son of Baconator" the cryptanthus. I need to plant those pups in a new pot, I think. Last is a photo of one of many brand new teeny leaves on the dwarf umbrella plant. They are growing so fast, which pleases me, as I got this one from my mother and I want to see it thrive. Back to work, whether I feel inspired or not!

I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU!!! I'm moving into a new place soon and my bedroom will have lots of sunlight. I want to grow something but I don't know what. Do you have any recommendations for a PLANTING NEWBIE??

exciting things!! some real simple, easy to care for plants that look cool include philodendron, which can look real nice trailing from a hanger (on the wall or from the ceiling), sansevieria, asparagus fern is pretty and feathery, and spider plants are impossible to kill and easy to multiply. Also you can get little hanging glass globes to plant succulents or sedum into. 

These are all kind of basic, beginner’s houseplants that you can find at pretty much any nursery or Home Depot’s. They get the job done as far as greening up the place, but if you wanted to look into more interesting stuff, the delightful Sara over at Bates Nursery can point you in the right direction. enjoy turning your apartment into a tiny jungle!!!
