Potty about plants

I’m pleased to see that the Alocasia ‘Polly’ is growing back after it slowly died away.

I also planted up some of the growing avocado stones.

Also potted on the Crassula ovata, aka money plant.

I potted on one of my fig plants. Ficus carica ‘Ice Crystal’.

I bought some thyme and decided to plant it in this terracotta pot and repot this over growing Oca.

Here is the Thyme potted up.

And on my edible shelf.

I’m pleased to see my recently bought Bomarea is flowering.

I also bought some chives. The key to any supermarket bought herbs is to split them and repot them as soon as you get them. This will give them the energy and nutrition they need.

I’m hoping to catch up with more things tomorrow.

An all weather gardener!

I was determined to get out in the yarden today, rain or shine. Rain it was.

First job was to get the comfrey (given to me by my friend Shaun) and get it prepared to make comfrey tea.

Here it is chopped up and in a bucket.

I filled the bucket up with water. I’ll wait for it to steep and smell before decanting into bottles and use it to feed my plants.

Here is Hosta ‘Tot tot’ a miniature hosta just potted in to its new pot.

I’ve finally potted up little one up too.

This one is Hosta ‘Dilithium Crystal’ as you can tell I like the blue varieties.

I also potted on two Colocasias, an Akebia, some Tradescantia cuttings, a Persicaria campanulata and a few other bits.

A friend gave me this cutting and I’m super excited. I hope it will grow big and strong. It’s a Ficus lyrata aka Fiddle Fig.

It rained, I got wet, I got wetter in the shower but I’m glad I did it!

Enjoy your green space!
