From a very young age, I have loved houseplants. I would love to hear about what types of plants you have, and any stories you might have about how you acquired your plant or plants. Would also love to see pictures of your houseplants.

Last night after reading a gardening magazine I now have a desire to make a few Terrariums and see how they turn out....They did say you can use plastic domes but they don't breath and glass does,…Continue

I heard that aspirin in a pint of water will wake up your slow growing house plants. I have tried this and it does work. Aspirin activates the root system. Try it!Continue

Comment by Vicky Myers 2 hours ago The umbrella is in a different pot it just wasn't much bigger than the one it was in. The leaves get brown sploches on them. The Rex I porobably over watered since it said it liked to sit on rocks w/water for the moist air. It was in the plastic pot inside the AV pot letting water come in way too much. Duh I know better. I took my rabbit foot ferns out of those crazy pots for the same reason. I would put water in them and let them take it up like it says too water from the bottom. I lined them up in a square tray kinda thing I got resently. I found my plant sale signs that are taped to big boxes in the garage. I dragged them in and one had a bunch of other containers in it. As I was taking them out I found all kinda yuch in there, looks like a big nest of hair and bug casings. Eeeeeeew I set it back out in the driveway. I so need to bring my Christmas stuff and tent back inside so they don't get ruined.
You are sweet Glenda thnk you for caring:)<3.Yes the high huimidity make my joints sore and it's difficult sitting at the PC.I wish I had an I-Pad then I would wiz away while lounging:):)My friend has one and my GS page looks great from it, it's magical......that would be great Glenda as I've never seen this plant before I have books and don't even know where to begin.Some of the flowers look like little bells don't they:)...you're right it's beddy bye....Nite.
Comment by Glenda Truscott z8 4 hours ago Lila, I am glad to see you back on GS. I was getting concerned because you hadn't posted for a while. The heat and humidity sounds horrid! I saw a plant like yours (orange one) at Walmart last week but I didn't look for the name. I look and see if they still have them so I can see what it is.
Love your pics Joseph and Cindy I hope you have a very sucessful yard sale. Vicky I really like your rocker.
Time for bed. Good night all.
Aaauuuw Cindy what a beautifull bunny! He really looks like Peter cottontail Lol!:) I want to hug him,thanks for the pic.
Hey friends!--Thanks for the link Grant, it kinda looks like it but I don't think so as the seeds I planted where either Poppy or you said it Cosmos fr what I remember, I keep confusing the two.Are Cosmos "fuzzy" like that?...anyway, a friend gave me this plant fr a party he was working at and I think it's a type of cactus/succulent check it-out....Isn't it cute? Anyone know what it is?...I put it at the window but I don't think it's happy as the tips of the leaves are browning and then the leaf yellowing,I think it might be too chilly for her, maybe I should put it oustside but first I have to know what it is.Any help would be appreciated:)
