Here I am again.
Sometimes I go around the house with a pair of scissors... eyeing my pothos. Checking which ones have enough leaves. "You won't miss one", I say, then... snip!
It's weird that I find it satisfying to snip the stem of a plant, pop it in water, and watch those tiny roots unfurl. It is like cheating nature somehow, making new life out of leftovers.
I've prepared a used tray and plastic pots and filled them with potting mix, then transferred the leaves with roots from the jars. It's like playing science experiments. If it works, amazing! If it doesn't, no big deal. But most of the time it does work!
And when I see those first roots forming, I get way too excited. Like, I showed this one to my neighbor. She just nodded politely, lol. I know she does not care as much as I do, but I still share.
Basil is one of those herbs I keep a pot on the windowsill for salads, pasta, or just to smell when I need a mood boost.
It grows fast, loves the warmth, and it's the easiest way to feel like a kitchen wiz!
I think this is called a cylindrical snake plant. The tips are drying up. And it needs some tending and TLC.
This ponytail palm used to be a tiny plant that sat on a shelf upstairs. It has overgrown its pot! Now, what must I do with it now?
Propagation is simple and soothing. It makes me feel like I've got magical hands. So yeah, just me, a pair of scissors, and some leafy optimism.
All photos were taken by me with my iPhone.
I hope to see you again soon!
Hugs and Kisses 🥰🌺🤙!!!!
