#gay planting

This Friday I’ll have my second tattoo session. The undone leaves will be completed and there’s going to be a bit more details added on the other leaves. So exciting! What do you think of my tattoo?

Here I’m also holding my beautiful philodendron Brasil. She is super happy on my Garage shelves and has grown a lot since I got her.

I usually wait for the soil to dry very well and then I soak it deeply and repeat.

Medium indirect light works well!

Do you grow one of this?

Can we all scream for a minute? Look who joined my plant fam! Anthurium hookeri (bird’s nest anthurium) Isn’t she gorgeous? Comment a and get excited with me!

She is labelled as a bird nest anthurium. She does have red veins and a gorgeous flower in the last stages.

I didn’t get it from a normal retail shop. In our area one day a year, 9 wholesale nurseries open the door to the public. I saw her from afar at one of them, screamed and without researching or anything, I knew she called my soul. Because of the event, she was also only $35 (for that size omg!)

I’m still in full research mode, since this is a rare plant in my area (meaning she is not widely available), I’m honestly not sure if the label is accurate or not. Based on what I’ve found, most sold ones are hybrids and not the actual species.

Do you grow this baby? Share any insights or tips with me!
