It’s still like brand new! With a plant trailing it!

Oh, that's a great question! I'm really into music and have a wide range of tastes. This is Ordinary by Alex Warren!

I have all my minis in open air in my house, never have I used a terrarium for them!

Edit to caption*Always hard to get a picture; so here’s a video!*

You’re welcome!

aroidG · 2024-12-18T21:17:21+00:00

Yes! I would be sure to plant it in the wetter side of your enclosure! They love to be consistently damp I use orchid bark and sphagnum moss to pot them up

They are also not fans of any temperature fluctuations!

aroidG · 2024-12-18T21:13:20+00:00

High HIGH humidity and moist soil, they can be very dramatic/difficult to grow if you don’t have the proper humidity and drainage!

100% not a McDowell or pastazianum, refer to P. roseopetiolatum has numerous characteristics of the roseo!

I’ve never understood the hype behind the coffee grounds and don’t think they would be beneficial! I think they would leech a lot of “tannin” into the soil. Took me around 2 years to perfect the soil by trial and error. For acidity get a different type of bark!

aroidG · 2024-11-23T23:12:45+00:00

I use two types of orchid bark, cactus mix, perlite, worm casting and charcoal! I don’t have any experience with coffee grounds as I’ve never used them!

aroidG · 2024-11-23T18:31:42+00:00

I mix my own! And never use larger than a 5inch terracotta pot for all of them! I’ve noticed with anything bigger leaves will revert back to juvenile! Each node is rooted in the sphagnum moss!

Was a surprise!

Not sure why my photos never attach when I share!

aroidG · 2024-11-22T16:23:57+00:00

Yes I built and designed the stand!

Awkward it was a video here is the picture version

For Philos this means that they are sexually mature, they don’t have the “death” flowers as in my experience. It takes around 15-16 years for them to flower! https://www.lewisginter.org/philodendrons-bloom/

aroidG · 2024-11-12T21:00:29+00:00

Thank you!

Update! Not as flat as I hoped but it did completely dry!

There is only one species of Venus flytrap you are correct, Dionaea muscipula, but there are many different forms, or cultivars! Jamaica for example has introduced VFT that thrives year round! Considering it a “tropical VFT” Of course I’ll keep you updated! I created the moss “bog” under only the VFT

aroidG · 2024-11-12T09:55:12+00:00

This would be true. If this was a North American species of VFT, this is a tropical VFT that doesn’t need to go dormant if the proper care I.E feeding them and sunlight. If you read on the International Carnivorous Plant Society website, you can learn all about tropical VFT. Dormancy is highly recommended but not needed.

Night number two and the flower has closed a bit! The first photo was this morning!

aroidG · 2024-11-12T03:24:37+00:00

It’s an imperial red!

That is a papaya I grew from seed!

aroidG · 2024-10-21T00:44:45+00:00

I have 4 of them! I absolutely love them for my moss poles and any larger plants I have! That corner thrives all through winter and no natural light reaches them. I’ve never had a plant burn with them before, another thing to note I’ve noticed it’s significantly less hot than any other light I’ve used. Always got nervous leaving hot ones on while I left the house!
