    Looks so much better. Seems most planty channels have so many plants jammed together it is just a mass of green. It much better if plants can have their own space to show off their beauty. Definitely less is more. It’s hard to let go but the benefits are satisfying. Donna

      Thank you Donna!!! I watched a video the other day, a popular channel I don't typically watch, so I wasn't aware of just how many plants they had. Plants in every corner, hanging from the ceiling everywhere. Holy moly LOL. I don't know how some people do it. Feels claustrophobic to me. And a ton of work. I'm definitely in my less is more phase. Not that I don't still have a lot, but it's definitely less, and I may still be purging a few more :). Thanks for watching!!!!

      Hi, Tina!!! Thank you so much!!! I think I figured out what I am going to do. Combine them into the Begonia cabinets. There's no room in the one in my office, but I can squeeze some into the greenhouse shelf in my kitchen and then the Ikea cabinet in my dining room. That should work out well. It would be nice to have them all contained in one place but until then, this will work :). Big hugs back to you!!! xxoo

I’ve been away for a couple of weeks, so I might be doing some decluttering myself when I return home after the drought and lack of pest control.

      Right now it's so easy for me to get rid of plants. Probably because I basically have a greenhouse in my basement LOL.
      In my neighborhood we hardly get any trick-or-treaters which is probably why I'm not very motivated to decorate. In addition to not wanting to clutter things up.

The planter was way too valuable to give away with the plant. It's a beautiful plant for sure but one I was able to let go of. Mostly because it reminds me a lot of the strawberry ice which I have in the grow tent. I decided I didn't need to have both :). Thanks Lynn!!!! xxoo

My bipinnatifida started to look worse before it looked better. I think they have a rough acclimation period as they adjust to the new environment. And that was with keeping it in a cabinet. So if yours starts to look unhappy, it should eventually adjust just fine like mine did 😊. But hopefully that won’t happen at all and it will just look good always. Thanks for letting me know 💕💕💕

    I wonder what is your favorite plant for fall? I bought a NOID Hoya at Star Nursery for $5.89 in a 3 inch pot. It is a cross between a Hoya carnosa and a Hoya pubicalyx. It is my favorite, because it has medium sized dark green glossy leaves. It is a vigorous care free plant which has grown quickly, and now is in a 7 inch pot. It has over 6 vines and the vines are never bare, they are covered with leaves. The vines have a darkish wine red color and the leaves are lightly splashed. It is a delight. I’d love to send you a cutting, though I know you’re loaded with new Hoyas.

    • @ThePinkTrellis
      @ThePinkTrellis  Місяць тому +1

      I don't know that I have a favorite for Fall. So many of my plants are bringing me a ton of joy right now. African Violets, Begonias, Cacti/Succulents, Hoya, etc. etc. LOL. I can't pinpoint one particular plant. Your NOID Hoya sounds fabulous!!!! If I wasn't trying to keep my upstairs collection to a minimum I would totally take you up on a cutting. Going forward, my attention on Hoya is going to be more on rare species for the shop. And I am in no way a snob when it comes to plants. The more common the better in my opinion. But for my sanity, any new additions have to be contributing to my shop :). Hope that doesn't make me sound like a jerk LOL. Thanks Paul!!!!

    I love the ZZ Raven against your pretty wallpaper. I love my Hoya Sheperdii. I guess they are pretty inexpensive and common but they look so pretty to me. Your decluttering looks amazing. I totally understand the need to do so because I have spent the last couple of years peeling away the thick layers of plants. It is a weird feeling to say how it actually feels. We adore the plants but they can just totally take over. I am sending off three boxes of vintage Christmas and other vintage things so a lady with a vintage antique store. Even that feels good. I peeked at my large style nativity and love it so much I might even put it out this year. It has been several years since I have done so. Guess it all depends on how I feel when the time comes and how much snow outside I will be dealing with.

No spotting no discoloration. I would test a leaf to be sure, depending on what you are using, but I say go for it with the pest treatment. I've been able to eradicate thrips with a heavy spray down including the soil, multiple times. The leaves looked so clean and glossy afterwards too :). Good luck!!!!
