  • It’s Been a While! Garden & Life Update

    Woah… it’s been a hot second since I’ve been on here. When I say hot second, I really mean six years! Although I’ve been gone from this blog, I certainly haven’t lost my love and fascination of plants – in fact it’s grown. I started this page collecting and propagating succulents, but now I have…

  • Repotting my peanut cactus

    What a busy week I’ve had. Early last week I decided to start selling some of my succulent babies using Facebook Marketplace. I’d seen people list their cuttings and propagation successes for sale before and had always been curious about it. I wondered how many people would message me with some sort of interest. Turns…

  • Foliage Friday – pink plants for your Valentine

    Hey guys! Welcome to another Foliage Friday. Because it’s Valentine’s Day, I thought it’d be a cute idea to show you some of my pink plants. Roses are everywhere today so we can skip talking about those. This is the perfect excuse for a pink plant post. I hope you’ve all been enjoying this lovey-dovey…

  • A succulent update (succulupdate?)

I’m pretty thrilled with how this has turned out, even if it’s still only half done. (The unfinished half isn’t pictured, for obvious reasons). In July last…

  • A watched flower never blooms

    A watched kettle never boils, I’m pretty certain watched grass never grows, and I’m positive that a watched flower never blooms. One important thing gardening has taught me is patience. It seems like I’ve been extra patient with this lot of flowers though, and it’s starting to bug me. I’ve been checking every morning and…

  • Days off are better spent in the garden

    There! I said it. I love shopping, but I’m glad I got that done yesterday. Now I can spend my day playing with plants instead of running around Aldi shoving slow-walkers out of the way with a trolley full of low-priced goods. (Seriously, have you seen their prices? I could write a whole post on…

  • Winter blues (a quick update)

    Hi all, sorry for my absence over the past couple of months. I’ve been moving house and have finally settled into my new place. The yard is chaos – huge and overgrown but I’m slowly working my way through it and creating a place I want to be for the next … however long. I’ve…
