I know this sounds a little silly, but I’ve noticed that a lot of plant people name their plants, talk to them, feel guilty when they forget to water them, or somehow sense that one plant is “dramatic” while another is “chill.” 🪴

So I’m curious: do you ever interact with your plants like they have a personality?

I’m not talking about serious plant-care advice, more like the emotional/fun side of having plants at home.

Would love to hear honestly: cute, cringe, comforting, unnecessary?

The garden was already like this when I moved in, and I honestly couldn't be happier. I’m so excited to just sit here, enjoy the gorgeous colors, and watch everything bloom. It feels like such a lucky find!

When I finally decided to repot her, I was shocked to find that 80% of the roots were completely rotten. I think it was due to overwatering — she came with a wick watering system when I bought her, which kept the media way too wet.

She hasn't bloomed even once in the year and a half that I’ve had her, but seeing this new growth gives me so much hope! I really pray that the new orchid mix and a fresh pot will do her good. Fingers crossed for some future blooms! 🤞🌸
