    Holy Ghost 😱🤩😍! Your plants are certainly loving your Florida patio💖💓. I received a Euphorbia ghost for my birthday in January. It arrived at 10 inches tall, rooted and wrapped in tissue paper. I planted her and put her next to my Euphorbia trigona Rubra. Ruby is a beast. Rubra came from Home Depot at about 6 inches tall. She is now almost 3 feet tall and full of pups. Ghost has done nothing.😢. What the heck!?!?
    So glad that you are feeling better 🥰.

    When I do partial water changes on my fish tanks I save the water i've removed in buckets to use for my plants, any fish waste in them will go on help my plants thrive. So if anyone has fish tanks, reuse your water! But as you say using the dechlorinator certainly helps too if you're using tap water.
    And yes with you on Sansaveria!

    • @carmenwhitehead

    Wisdom teeth are the worst! I'm glad you're feeling better. The differences between zone 9b in Arizona and 9b in Florida are mind-blowing. Nothing on my patio is happy right now other than the baby adenium that has doubled in size since June. The happy plants have been hiding inside in the ac with me under grow lights. 😂😂

    • @carmenwhitehead
      @carmenwhitehead  Рік тому

      I hate that I waited until I was 58 to deal with them! LOL!
      You're right 9b is definitely different here. The Arizona heat just burns everything. I remember having to protect even my cactus from getting burned.

    • @kat1984
      @kat1984 Рік тому

      @carmenwhitehead I had my wisdom teeth removed at 17, and I'm glad they were taken out. They were causing a lot of pain. I didn't even bother trying to grow in my apartment backyard this year. The complex thought that solid iron fencing and river rock were a good idea. It's an oven back there and kills every plant. Thankfully, I have a front patio. I'm looking forward to November when the tomato plant that I've kept alive will actually be able to produce tomatoes for me. I'm glad I decided to try growing dwarf tomatoes inside under my grow lights. I've had a steady supply of fresh cherry tomatoes for a year.

    Carment, that euphorbia milk tree has been on my wishlist for a very long time. I found the green variegated version at walmart for $5, but she is very small....very small (4/5 inches tall). I still love her, but that white ghost is the real g.o.a.t. I love your plants

    Hi Carmen, I’m glad you are feeling better after your dental procedure, that’s never fun. Great plant choices for the month of July, especially the dragon bones euphorbia, I love mine and she’s a fast grower in the summer. Rain water is key, and when you live in Florida, you’re good in that department 😂. We are having a mild drought here in the Long Island area, so hopefully this week we’ll get some. I’m subscribed to Sheffield plants too, he’s so funny and informative at the same time. I’m glad that you found the water additive, I would see how it turns out, he swears by it. Have a great Sunday 🫶
