Shortly after I got the plant. Almost 3 weeks ago. Her name is | Jazzy. |
|
Today. It started shooting off like crazy, almost literally overnight. The right side is busy blooming. The left is doing goddess knows what! |
|
The blooms smell fantastic. |
|
All light green is new within a week. |

Meet Catalina. She was a rescue from my boyfriend's job. His coworker had already given her her name, but was overwatering it. She gave the plant to me willingly, and so I went to town on it. I cut off all of her dead leaves and staked her since she was severally lopsided. She still wants to show off her pretty spathes, even though she's been through a lot. I'm not going to tell her she still looks a little sparse. |

Catalina has to be fairly old. I'm guessing a few years. I've never seen an anthurium pushing out spathes like this, but I'm no Anthurium expert. I just buy them and try to keep them alive. |

My Thanksgiving Cactus, Sally, wanted to say thank you for me rescuing her from impending underwatering! She was also a rescue from another of my boyfriend's coworkers. |

This is Sammy, the mystery Chlorophytum. I posted him up for ID on Gardenweb, and there has been no positive ID on him yet. It doesn't matter much to me, as he has come a LONG way in just a few weeks. I cut off all his dead leaves, gave him all new soil and tried to give him as much light as I could provide. This is a north facing window, but he doesn't mind. He's truly a trooper. |
|
My haul from yesterday. I don't think I'll be naming them just yet, but they're just so adorable. |
|
And the winner of the imaginary houseplant gold star is...Fuchsia 'Lena'! I bought her in a small ~2" pot. She had blooms but I moved her too much and she had a hissy. However, after leaving her alone and giving her a little less water, she is trying to outgrow her pot! I don't know if she will ever put out buds again, but I think she's still very pretty. |

There we have it. Every plant is basically doing well, but these are trying to show off. Hence, they get shown off.
