The Houseplant Thread

I am happy to say that my succulents made it through the winter in my cold, cold house (and apparently so did I). My aloe vera needed some TLC this past week though because it was dehydrated. It’s looking much better now.

My mom's orchids today. The decorative painted pots are by KMS Artwork on Etsy.

Not sure why my photo above wasn't embedding anymore. Here it is in case you didn't want to click on the link.

This evening I started a pothos "tree" - a few pothos plants planted around and tied to a moss (coconut coir) pole. Has anybody here tried this?

Interesting! I have never tried this, I’ve trained my pothos up the windowsill

The cool thing about the moss pole is that the pothos will grow roots in the moistened coir. I'll post a photo of mine later. I hope I did it right!

While I saw new growth in some of my plants, I am only now actually interacting with them after the long winter. My blue elf aloe is not only much bigger, but it has a flower bud in the center! I’ll show a picture when it blooms.

Can someone tell me what kind of plant this is? I thought it was a Dracaena of some sort, but it was not labelled at the nursery.

It’s a green one!
