Here is my unidentified dude who is currently not happy. Any ideas on what it is? Just got it last fall and it did well inside up until about a month ago. Moved him outside this week to see how he fares.

Hello! Did you figure out what this plant is? If not, you can do a Google image search. Most times that works better than the plant apps.

I have some houseplants. I've really never done well with them, but have had some snake plants and a pothos for at least 10 years - probably longer. The snake plants never grow tall though, so I don't know why - working on it to see if I can get them to grow taller. I mostly don't water them right, but recently decided to actually look into what their watering needs are. Mostly I was watering once a week, but it appears that is too much for the majority of them.
Just acquired some succulents. I have an app and it says I have a fairy washboard, echeveria pupusorum, coppertone stonecrop, and gold moss stonecrop. The last 3 are in a tiny pot so I just treat it like one plant. But, I might divide it up and repot. It was a gift. The fairy washboard I bought and repotted. My issue is that my windows are only on the east and west of the house. So none of my plants get direct light. I thought they did, but my app says otherwise.
Oh I also have an orchid. My husband got it for me for mother's day so we will see how it goes. So far, so good. I have had some blossoms drop, but read that it's normal. Just ordered some fertilizer for it - and I never fertilize.
I have lots of outdoor areas with flowers, but nothing looks great. So, working on that too.
I have a small veggie garden as well, but the bunnies are taking care of it.

We need to revive this!
How has everyone been? How are the houseplants?


Spring having rolled around, all of mine are slowwwwlyyy starting to wake up and put out new leaves. I've got a Hoya Compacta budding, too! I'll post a pic of the blooms once they open.
