Die Sarracenia leucophylla Gene geben nochmal alles, auch Kreuzungen mit Sarracenia purpurea können sich noch sehen lassen.
Two dorky photos of no makeup me, from another pruning workshop attendee. My jaw is sore & I don't know how to work my mouth properly yet, with immediate dentures in.
I picked some lavender to bring home. Love the smell of lavender.
Me: ok, not buying any more plants until I have got all my current plants in the ground.
Also me: oooh yes, buys that herb and that one, and that one....
I cannot help myself
I've had many interests/hobbies come & go. After I realized I was a #PlantAddict, I was afraid this interest would wane, too, & I'd again be left with out a passion to occupy me. I think the amazing diversity of plants works in my favor. I've noticed I have carnivorous plant phases, orchid phases, succulent phases, etc. I go a little nuts with one for a while &, as it slows down, another one starts really piquing my interests again which keeps me from getting bored.

I finally scored an Edithcolea grandis! I'm so excited to add this amazing plant to my Stapeliad collection! #PlantAddict #ILikePlantsMoreThanPeople
Hi, my name is AJ and it has been 10 days since my last plant purchase.

My orchid collection, except for the terrestrials and the two hybrids I'm planning on giving away, have finally all been converted over to semi-hydroponics. #PlantAddict #ILikePlantsMoreThanPeople
HECK YEAH!
I got an restock alert for Begonia luxurians from Steve's Leaves and managed to buy one before they sold out again!
#PlantAddict #ILikePlantsMoreThanPeople
Sweet! Mistake in my favor! Plant shop sent me MY order... and someone else's. I reached out and offered to send it to the correct customer or back to them. They thanked me for offering but said to keep it. Now I have TWO beautiful Euphorbia stellatas.

I've been trying to find a Brachystelma barberiae to add to my collection of caudiciforms for years. I'm broke as crap right now and trying to preserve any capital/credit I have for further pandemic hardships.
But I'm also impulsive and greedy so I bought this little one as soon as I received the notification email. At least it was the smallest/cheapest one they had, right?

Okay... so I failed at my challenge of not buying plants for a month on this, the 9th day.
In my defense, 9 days is pretty good AND it is a plant that is almost never offered for sale.
Not gonna beat myself up about it as long as I'm good for the rest of the month and maybe a little of the next one.

Sorry for the crappy pic but... I found one of my top wishlist #plants Monday!
I had some free time while I was out before work so I swung by one of my favorite little nurseries just to look around & waste some time. Then I saw it: a good-sized Natal Mahogany! And for about half of what I saw it going for while traveling a few months ago.
Turns out, they asked a supplier about getting some in after I'd inquired & it was the only one they ordered.

Heck friggin' yeah!! I finally found a #Hoya mitrata for sale in my country! (International orders have resulted in receiving a dead one & another was seized by customs for a fungus.)
As a super awesome bonus, I also asked if they had any Hoya sigillatis and they did so I bought a cutting!
I'm broke but stoked. I'm also really grateful I don't celebrate any upcoming major gift giving holidays & don't have kids so I can splurge on myself.

I love it when Summer Rayne Oakes covers a cute #plant that I already have so I don't have to go buy it.
I've never heard Aeschynanthus longicaulis called "zebra basket vine", though - I'm only familiar with it as "black pagoda lipstick plant".

I took my first ever trip to New Jersey last week to meet more of my boyfriend's family and friends and to attend a wedding.
On our last day there, THREE different family members each gave me a section of a plant they grow: Philodendron bipinnatifidum from his sister, Opuntia humifusa from his uncle, and Tradescantia zebrina from his cousin.
Talk about feeling welcomed!
With their help, my plant collection has finally exceeded 400.

Anyone have any experience growing Camellia sinensis (tea #plant)? I'm particularly interested in #advice for growing indoors under a grow light and in passive hydroponics but any tips are great! Think it's okay to grow in range of cats or do I need to keep it out of reach? I don't see it on the ASPCA's toxic plant list though they list Camellia japonica as non-toxic.
