Hi! I’m a houseplant collector looking for other planty mutuals! I have over 200 plants who have been through quite a lot — cross country moves, periods of depression neglect, less than ideal conditions, etc. I’d love to meet some planty folks here!

An oldie but a goodie, some might say. ‘Thanksgiving’ cacti (often sold at Christmas time as a ‘Christmas cactus, but actual Christmas cacti have smooth edges!) blooms are so stunning. Mine thrives on neglect, but blooms far more with high light!

Merry Christmas! Sorry for being MIA for a while; social media isn’t a priority of mine, especially during the holidays — but I’ll be back to post about plants soon!

Moss pole users are stronger than me. Best I can offer is a bamboo stick that breaks if you breathe on it.

This is… The Mess™️. Two White Princess, one Pink. All three grown from teeny tiny tissue culture starts. All severely neglected and left to go wild lol. They’ve outgrown their pots, their supports, and my patience. ✂️✂️✂️

This is my alocasia corm trash can. Where I toss every corm I find and let them fight for survival.

I think today is the day I chop up all three of my variegated philodendrons ( a pink princess and two white princesses). They’re growing like idiots. Which it seems most climbing philodendrons do if you don’t micromanage every single leaf they put out.

Stay tuned✂️ 😎

Monstera ‘Thai Constellation.’ Got this stunner as a sickly one-leaf clearance plant from Kroger for $7 about six months ago. She has really popped off since then, I’m honestly so proud of her 😭🥹 I have had WAY more success with this variety vs the mon. albos

My garden gnome (she whispers curses upon the plants each morning to remind them of their place in pecking order)

It finally decided to get cold here in CT… and of course, our heat in the living room isn’t working 😵‍💫 It’s been a hectic couple of days — but here are a few of my favorite plants currently 🩵

the curse of having a maximalist, eclectic home: not having a single plain, bright surface to photograph plants against 🫠

bear with me as i try to figure out ways to get nicer photos 😅 our apartment is so cozy, but so visually loud (which i love)

Syngonium wendlandii — one of my all time favorite plants! Mine is still juvenile; I have plans to put her on a pole in the spring to hopefully encourage those big, bunny ears! I love the texture of her leaves and the bushy way she grows ✨

Philodendron ‘Silver Stripe.’ One of the many hederaceum varieties, this plant has such striking variegation that shows up in different shades of white, yellow, cream, and silver. Mine has been growing wonderfully with no drainage and a small support pole!

Hoya ‘Krimson Queen.’ She’s the moment. With only four Hoyas in my entire collection, I’m no Hoya Head, but I wouldn’t trade this girly for anything. Those white leaves and pink vines are iconic. Such easy care, too. For me, she thrives on neglect (same).

Philodendron ‘Ring of Fire.’ A plant so nice, I bought it twice. This is my favorite kind of variegation; I love the speckled, splashy look of the leaves.

This plant is literally so easy to care for. I ran over it with a U-Haul and it lived.
