I have an embarrassing amount of plants and I like to talk about them and take pictures of them. Aroids, orchids, cacti, succulents, miscellaneous. USA, English, any pronouns.

Hoya Mathilde is flowering for the first time in a while! It likes the heat and humidity outside.

Drimia haworthiodes seems like it’s enjoying being outside!

Missing a petal. Not sure who it is off the top of my head.

Check out this awesome flower!! I’m so stoked that it finally opened - 5 months from the initiation of the spike to the bloom! This is Psychopsis Memoria Bill Carter!

Found a monanthes at a local sale! Seller told me it’s not polyphylla but wasn’t sure the species, so if anyone has thoughts I’d love to hear them.

I have had this hoya for several years — I finally figured out its needs and it’s flowering! 😭
A Hoya carnosa on a sunny table. There are several leaves forming and flowers. #plant #houseplant #hoya A close up of the hoya’s flower buds, they are purple and look like stars

Look who’s opening up! I got this from a grocery store so of course it’s unlabeled, but I think it may be “Chingruey’s Goldstaff”.

Two star shaped flowers, yellow as a base color with pink striping and a hot pink lip.

Guess what! Flower incoming! (Finally.)
A pinguicula, appearing as a rosette of lime green leaves tinged pink. At its center, it’s beginning to grow a stalk with a purplish flower bud.

Anthurium Pink Lemonade x Indo hoffmanni made a very nice new leaf. Shiny.

A plant with heart shaped leaves, which has just made a new leaf. The new leaf is dark reddish green, with red veins and a metallic shimmer.

The #peonies at the experimental farm gardens in #ottawa are in full bloom! I named this one raspberry ripper.

Out of the 30 some seeds I sowed, I’ve grown out 5 plumeria (one is a runt but I’m giving it time). Where will I put 5 plumeria? Irrelevant, unimportant

Four broad-leafed green seedlings, each in their own 4” black plastic pot. A fifth one is a very tiny nub and in a 2” pot. They are in a tray on a deck, which badly needs to be swept.

Bowiea volubilis climbing its trellis. Mine is kind of odd, it’s never grown another bulb in years but it sets seed every season.

This one gets my attention every time I walk by… bearded iris ‘Rippling Waters’.

This is a cactus!! With leaves!! It’s a Pereskia - I’d never heard of them before encountering this plant. The flowers are lovely; I hope I can figure out what it likes!

A hand is holding a green stem with thin, pointed leaves. The leaves are mostly golden yellow with a green/bronze stripe down the center.

Seconds before disaster (deer ate it down to a nub last night).

Peony ‘White Cap’ opened its single flower! This is a young plant - I put it in the ground last fall. The foliage has grown a lot since I bought it. Hopefully more flowers will follow next year.

The only anthurium I have where I don’t like the look of the emergent leaves - but I LOVE how they look hardened off. This is a Red Crystal x besseae, and I was on the fence about keeping it. Now I remember why I picked it out of the seedling tray. #plants #houseplants #aroids
A rounded, heart-shaped leaf with pinkish white veins. The texture of the leaf appears velvety. The leaf is dark green.

Nice emergent leaf coming on this anthurium. I think this is Pink Lemonade x Indo Hoffmannii.

One of my favorite hoya - a very splashy publicalyx given to me by an online friend. It hasn’t bloomed, but I’m hoping some outside time will convince it this year. #plantsky #plants #houseplants

I love how sparkly new anthurium leaves can be! This seedling is besseae x Red Crystal x carlablackieae. #plantsky #houseplants #aroids #gardening
