Mother of Pearl poppy

I was blown away with her beauty and uniqueness all season. I would excitedly run out every morning to see who bloomed and take tons of pictures. These are just a few that stood out to me.

Monstera propagation

I have a mature Monstera deliciosa plant that lives under my pecan tree in the spring/summer. Last fall, I noticed it had a couple of baby leaves at the very bottom so I decided to take a cutting, making sure I got enough of the stem with nodes. I put the cutting in water on a windowsill and eventually it grew a few long aerial roots. When they were long enough, I took it out and potted it in a small 6 inch container with soft seed starter mix. I kept it consistently moist for a few months in my greenhouse. After growing lots of new solid leaves, it finally put out a leaf with fenestrations. Plants are amazing!

Update on Mammoth Sunflowers

They’re about 7-8ft tall now. All the rain we had in May really helped and I just got my first bloom to open.

Hoya bloom

I’ve had this Hoya Kerrii for about two years now and this is the first time she has bloomed. I keep it in my greenhouse, trellis it up for support, and keep the soil semi-moist during the summer. And love, I give her lots of love.
