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…… Continue reading Foliage Friday – pink plants for your Valentine

Six on Saturday 08-02-2020

Another late post for Six on Saturday this week, but at least I didn’t miss it! As always, thanks to The Propagator for starting #SOS. Head to his blog if you want to learn more or join in on the fun. 1. New growth Crassula capitella ‘Campfire’ Progress on Propagation Station 2020. This Crassula got leggy.…… Continue reading Six on Saturday 08-02-2020

A succulent update (succulupdate?)

A post full of photos this evening. Updates from around the garden – Little Missy’s tiny flowers and a succulent bed growth comparison. First off, the succulent bed. 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…… Continue reading A succulent update (succulupdate?)

Foliage Friday (air plant edition) – Tillandsia ‘aeranthos’

Welcome to #FoliageFriday! It’s a big thing on GardenTags, a plant-based social platform that I’ve been avidly using for the past few years (if you haven’t made an account yet please do! The community is great and so helpful). Anyway, I thought I’d try to make it a thing here. Flowers get lots of attention…… Continue reading Foliage Friday (air plant edition) – Tillandsia ‘aeranthos’

Six on Saturday 18-01-2020 (on Sunday!)

I started this Six on Saturday yesterday, but a mediocre mindset mixed with a giant headache made me have to give up typing and go to bed early. So here’s my #SOS for this week – just a little late. A big shoutout to The Propagator for starting this trend that always seems to pull…… Continue reading Six on Saturday 18-01-2020 (on Sunday!)

Sunday funday at the Cactus and Succulent sale

I’ve been so excited for this sale and it didn’t disappoint! I took my Dad along with me for some company (and extra hands). We got there before the doors opened this time, and I’m glad we did – we had so many beautiful plants to choose from. Side note, why can’t I stay away…… Continue reading Sunday funday at the Cactus and Succulent sale

Another weekend, another plant expo

Last weekend was a crazy one! On Friday morning I graduated from University; I now have a Communication and Media degree. I won’t go on about it because it has nothing to do with plants (although I did receive some beautiful flowers), but it was a great day. A busy day, too. And a little…… Continue reading Another weekend, another plant expo

My weekend: Aussie natives and a bonsai experiment

This weekend was full of gardening inspiration. Yesterday, two friends and I went to an Australian native plant expo. We arrived early; well, what we thought was early… turns out people must have been lining up before opening time or just camped out overnight because it was packed, and many of the more exotic plants…… Continue reading My weekend: Aussie natives and a bonsai experiment
