This is Orba, a Calathea Orbifolia who resides on my window sill because she didn't like being on the shelf next to Tim 3rd. When it gets hot I think I'll need to move her back to the shelf though. There's being in the spotlight and being in too much sunlight!

This is Spike. A Snake Plant gifted for my birthday in 2023 by one of my best mates. Spike gave me some of my confidence back after I lost a bonsai many years ago.
