#zygopetalum

I’m filling the void in my life with plants…

New orchids, adorable mini phalaenopsis, and a vERY FRAGRANT ZYGOPETALUM THAT I DIDN’T KNOW WAS GONNA BE FRAGRANT UNTIL I GOT IT (I had no idea what kind of orchid it was, I was just excited because I found a Trader Joe’s gift card in my wallet that was unused)… pLUS A VARIEGATED MINI ROSE!!!! I don’t think I’ve EVER seen a variegated rose, mini or not… even if the variegation doesn’t stay, like uh… It’s still a mini rose!! And cute as hell!!

When I was a kid I got to pick one rosebush from the nursery, so I picked a Nicole Rose which is white center with neon pink petal tips and that was the extent of colour variation I’ve seen - with just the tips a different colour. So, I’m super excited to make room for this rose indoors (I had no idea they’d actually stay mini?? According to what I saw online…)

I’m so excited tho like my room is a jungle right now, I just got my first Monstera too, and have a BOP (it’s slowly unfurling a new leaf rn!!), and 2 orchids, (nOW 4 ORCHIDS!) Plus the other big stuff I have, poinsettias, dracaenas, hibiscus. Who knew I had it in me to shake off my black thumb to keep all these plants alive and making my Room feel less like a Doom. (Well, it’s a work in progress at least… myself and my room, I mean.)

Now I just gotta keep at the organizing and cleaning my room when chronic illness and mental illness aren’t kicking my ass.
