Today was a chance to get some plants transplanted into larger containers and start taking down Christmas decorations. I got most of the plants done except the peace lily in my bedroom Yep, bought another one month's ago and it's actually been living and producing new leaves every few days after a period of adjustment where it dropped lots of leaves.
The first geranium seed germinated sometime between last night and this morning. |
Kitty and I are taking down the Christmas decorations. I feel so bad for her as she loved sleeping under the tree and laying on the skirt. Till next year. |
If I could get up to the window to get that squirrel. |
This is the first year that our tree did not dry out. It wasn't stiff with needles dropped everywhere. Thank you El Nino for the warm weather with little heat needed inside the house. |
I've never in over 20 years had these few needles after taking down the tree. Usually they're in the house, on the porch, sidewalk and everywhere. |
Everything was attached to this wire. |
Saving this for next Christmas. |
That's an excellent price for the pot. As always, I look for bargains. |
Only because I broke a small clay pot. I would never save these to cover holes in the bottom of pots. |
Who really does this. I usually use landscape fabric which I think is better because it allows water to exit but no chance of soil getting out. |
She was ready to be transplanted. |
Potted up and I'll finish with stones. supposedly it stops fungus gnats from laying eggs in the soil. |
Next to be transplanted Alocasia Polly. I thought they go dormant but not. She did lose a few very large leaves at the start of spring. She's getting tall and I really love this plant. |
I take a little of the dried skins off but not too many as to harm the plant. |
Ficus with weeds. I'll have to pick those clover like weeds out. I killed a miniature one of these last year. Love variegated leaves. |
Added to the bottom for drainage as it sits in a cache pot and will also give some humidity. |
Potted up and taken back to their home. |
