Plant/garden people!

Well we need to talk! Specifically some swaps. I have, well, everything. I can't bear to throw them away so I have hundreds of baby VFT, and I think about 100 different types? About the same number on butterworts. These pics are just what's currently outside. All are running about 6 months behind this year due to cool weather but starting to wake up finally (although I still have tuberous drosera in bloom and pygmy sundews just NOW making gemma!!)

Do you sell them? I would buy a few plants.

I'd be happy to! I like them to go to loving homes just like animals. (And you liked my silkworms lol). Message me or I think you have my email.

I now know how to propagate pothos and wandering Jew...

In all seriousness I have 11 plants in my room now. Not sure how the heck this happened entirely. 3 pothos, 1 wandering jew, 1 braided umbrella, 1 spider plant, 3 orchids, and two plants that I have no clue what they are as they were gifts. Then you have Beman's cage in my room which has 2 hibiscus, Draceana, and a pothos.

Don't follow me for plant advice... I have no idea how the heck they are all living still.

I thought I was branching out though with my orchid experiment as I got 2 small orchids that were on deaths door and stripped them down to healthy roots. I am testing them in the water method rather than the weird soil stuff. My other one is still in the moss soil stuff as it seems to be thriving and I am too scared to kill it.

Im pretty new to this still. I always appreciated plants, but didn’t really get into caring for them correctly until more recently. I think I need to get into composting now.

Less than 10 years ago I left a bunch of tropical plants in a freezing garage because I thought as long as snow didn’t get on them they’d be fine

Wow, amazing! I’d possibly be interested in buying some as well.

I could really use some advice on how to keep VFTs over the winter lol. My method(that failed) was keeping in chilly garage next to a window and watering.

Any Gardners have tips for slug control? I’ve read a lot of ideas, but would love to hear first hand experiences?

I am fond of the "Ylang Ylang" Tree (Cananga odorata). The Ylang Ylang Tree is a tropical agriculture plant that produces flowers that are processed to make perfume. Ambanja Panther Chameleons (Furcifer pardalis) are regularly found in Ambanja Ylang Ylang groves. I owned on for about 10 years and am considering buying another Ylang Ylang Tree. Ylang Ylang Trees produce spectacular flowers when these trees bloom.

I wondered about dwarf ylang ylang for my area as I think it would be too cold in winter. Never finished researching…
