My Anthurium luxurians emergent is softly dancing into the light. 💃🍃

My Anthurium pallidiflorum finally gave me a good sized leaf 😂 It only gave me one, but I’ll take it!

Should I lend a hand, or let it do its thing? 😅 This new Alocasia Stingray aurea leaf is coming out, but it seems to be pushing really hard.

Welcome home the A. King 🤴 & your A. Queen is next to you 👸 It’s now perfect 👌 🤩

Now I have two baby mulberry trees 🥹🌱

It was time for the baby mama mulberry tree to have some babies because she’s getting so tall and skinny! 😂 This evening, she almost bent over when I misted her, and after watering, she couldn’t even hold herself upright anymore.

So I decided to propagate a couple of cuttings and hope these two babies grow well. If they don’t make it, no big deal! I still have the original baby mama plant 😂🌿

I wanted to share this in case it helps someone avoid making the same mistake I did.

This Queen had a tiny spot on the leaf that I thought was dirt. I tried wiping it off... it didn't come off, so I wiped it a couple more times. 🤦🏻‍♀️

The next day I realized I had actually rubbed away the surface of the leaf. That section is nowsuper thin and translucent when the light shines through it. Scar tissue developed 🥺Looking back at an older photo, I couldn't even see the "dirt" there, so I’m wondering if it was just a natural imperfection in the leaf that caught the light at a certain angle.

This was a good reminder that with velvet Anthuriums, if something doesn't come off withone very gentle wipe, it's probably part of the leaf—not dirt.
I guess my Queen taught me a little life lesson too: sometimes imperfect is already perfect. I saw what I thought was a flaw and tried to "fix" it, only to make it worse. Next time I'll leave well enough alone.

Has anyone else done something similar? I'd love to know I'm not the only one who's learned thislesson the hard way. 🌿💚

Got this beautiful Aglaonema from Lowe’s for 13 bucks 😍

My A. Papi dark phoenix newest leaf, do you guys think it's just random sport variegation, or could it be a nutrient deficiency?

I've attached the previous leaves for reference. Any ideas?

Can anyone tell are those Leaf buds or fruit buds? If it’s fruit buds, how often does mulberry fruit in a year? I had two already around April or May this year! So just wondering. Also, just removed a lot of purslane around it and added some mulch around it, is there enough mulch there? Kid of newbie here so please don’t mind a lot of questions 😅.

29 days after I bought this beautiful girl home 🥰 my 1st Hoya 🌸

My first propagation of my Anthurium (Happy Bunny Pinkleyi × Luxuriant) yesterday! 🥹

It had been air-layered with sphagnum moss since 3/28/26 and developed four beautiful, healthy roots. When I separated it, I was only able to free three of the roots without completely breaking apart the whole root ball. I decided to leave the fourth one alone. I think the three long, healthy roots should be enough to support the two huge leaves, IDK actually 😅 but🤞🥰 It’s in semi hydro now!

I left the remaining stem in the original pot and simply added a cozy moss collar around it. Right now, it's sitting next to a humidifier that runs about 13 hours a day; I’m In zone 9B!

For those who've propagated Anthuriums before, would you leave it as is, or would you loosely cover the stem with a clear bag/container (with ventilation holes) to encourage a new growth point? Which method has worked best for you?

Thanks in advance for any advice or tips! 💚🌿

I planted this mulberry tree almost 2 years ago (Zone 9b), and it's been in the 90s°F lately. The leaves have been drooping, and the tree doesn't seem to be growing as much as I expected.

I also noticed this plant growing around the base of the tree. Does anyone know what it is? Should I remove it? I'm wondering if it's competing with the mulberry for water or nutrients, especially when I fertilize the tree.
Any advice on helping the mulberry thrive would be appreciated!

Don't we all have at least one favorite Anthurium hybrid? 🤩

I'm absolutely obsessed with my A. KOS × BVEP! 😍🌿

What's your favorite hybrid? I'd love to see it! Please drop a photo in the comments below! 👇☺️
