Coleus plants also have some pretty cool purple variations. The typical all as annuals, but think they would do well in a well lit cham enclosure.

I too have that bottle! I hardly use it so I have nothing of value to contribute

 

[salty dog]

It never loses pressure, but the wide spray adjustment doesn't work very well, those pictures are of only 1 side

Also I am drooling over all your plants. My boyfriend got me an orchid once. I killed it.

 

[salty dog]

I have also killed lots of expensive plants!! I started in 2013 and spent years researching elevation and the geographical locations these plants grow in, I like to simplify growing plants, much easier than making it a rocket science, lots of orchid vendors will do that to push their products

It's actually been awhile since I've killed a plant. At the beginning of winter I killed a majesty palm because i left it outside overnight... oops lol. Other than that everything is growing so well! I have an ivy that is taking over my window

[salty dog]

That ivy is pretty!! I'm in the beginning stages of growing very large pendulous growing orchids for the chams, vanilla planifolia, cattleya hybrids and dendrobium spectabile that will eventually go in the cham vivs

This is the vanilla plant and cattleya below

Some day I'm going to be cool enough to know the Latin names of all these chams, bugs, and plants like everyone else
And thank you! I had to replant it once because the vines started to dry out and die for no reason. When I pulled it out of the pot I realized the roots were all over the inside of the pot. My poor plant, outgrew is pretty pot and now just gets ugly pots because pretty is expensive lol

 

[Daesie11]

I may not be able to breed bugs successfully, but God willing I can grow some plants myself for Pesto!

 

[KRGEE21]

I am inspired by all the photos and off to the nursery. Got an outdoor enclosure that needs filling up.
Any suggestions for Seattle climate? This is going to be bioactive, and hopefully permanent.

 

[salty dog]

I think Camelias, honeysuckle, jasmine would do good in seattle outside

 

[JoXie411]

Well I went to the clearance section today at Lowe’s and I found a honeysuckle that’s dying for 11!!! I’ve been wanting but to cheep to pay $30 lol also found some lavender plants on sale. My local Lowe’s sells pray mantises and ladybugs

do not feed ladybugs to chameleons I only bought to deal with the mealybug problem I’m having

 

[Daesie11]

So I just got back from the nursery. I dont want to talk about how muchI spent. But i got this awesome honeysuckle and sword fern! I'm probably going to use the honeysuckle as an outdoor free range as it is kinda big, but the fern is going to go in Pesto's enclosure!
Does anyone have any care tips for these plants?
Also look at the size if these pitcher plants! I didnt buy them because they would just eat Pesto, but they are so cool!
