It's Repotting Day!

aka i am Literally So Normal about my african violets

(for reference here are the Before pictures)

elmyra got the most work done today—i divided her 3 crowns into separate pots. allow me to introduce, l–r: elmyra prime aka big elmyra (henceforth just "elmyra"), little elmyra, and baby elmyra. they're all super leggy rn, not sure if that will change now they're separated and no longer have to compete with each other. you will notice baby elmyra has moved into little sister's tiny pot- she will be moving into little sister's old spot on the suction shelf as well.

pinky was business as usual, but i do think i managed to get her sitting straight in her pot for real this time! her neck (now buried) has like a 90° angle in it, it's so dumb. pinky, elmyra, and the brain all got graduated to tall 4" pots bc they are big girls and also bc pinky and brain's cheapie purple outer pots were well and truly finito.

side-by-side like this you can really see the color gradation in the brain lineage—l–r, brain, little sister, and baby brain. little sister moved from the tiny pot to a short 4" like little elmyra and baby brain, bc she was super rootbound and she deserves it. you can see her foliage is more compact than baby brain's though, because of the tiny pot. after her current flowers, she probably won't bloom again until she matches baby brain's sprawl. i actually didn't do anything with baby brain today—she moved into the big pot relatively recently, so i'll leave her alone until next winter. you will note brain looks intensely leafy in this photo; it was incredibly difficult to cram the soil into her pot at the very top bc of how many fucking leaves she has. pinky was a little hard, too, but brain and her children are on another level.

the propagation box also got a restock, although not with nearly as many leaves as i removed (intentionally and un-) during today's operations. i only added 4, because there were already 4 growing in the box; the rest i regretfully (read: catholic-guiltily) threw out bc honestly i already have more violets than i can handle.

the ferns also got new soil and big fern moved into a tall pot as well bc she was also super rootbound and i want her to continue to grow large and luxurious. not that i really have space for her to luxuriate in—

—as you can see, my shelf situation is ridiculous. it is cantilevered out from the windowsill and as such has a visible downward slant due to the weight of all the plants; i super need to figure out a bracket situation underneath so it doesn't dump my best beloveds all over my bed, and i need to do it before i can get bigger and better (and not-plastic) pots for the big girls. the elmyras are all in baggies bc i wanted to baby them after the trauma of their separation. all the others, i'm leaving to the open air bc hopefully they're all robust enough to withstand the stress of today's repotting, but if they start to look like they're going backwards i'll bag them, too (even if i have to buy roasting bags or something to even fit over brain and pinky—even in her diminished state, i could barely squeeze elmyra into the 2-gal bag, and not without tearing the mouth to make it wider).

so that was today's big adventure! it took i think a little over 2 hrs and my leg fell asleep so bad sitting on the concrete and i got so fucking cold working in the shade so the violets wouldn't get sunburned and my back hurts! but my girls all look so happy!

House Plants: Ferns

And the thoughts that are blown with the scent of the fern

Are as new and as old as the world.

It's like if moveobjectson worked on surfaces lol

All my current plants sequestered in my Kitchen for a photoshoot. I was cleaning and rearranging their other homes in the house.

The little ones I've been working on cloning for my wedding in August to use in my centerpieces and that people can also take as wedding favors.

The Swedish Ivy clippings and the Green Spider Plant sprouts took root in water before I planted them.

The Lucky Bamboo and the Boston Fern I had to divide at the roots.

Before and after: backyard plants corner

They are underneath our deck, so they get afternoon sun, then it is all indirect light.

Some of them I had for a few years, you can see a few ferns, the amazing spider plant expansion with cuttings only! Many of the succulents too, have grown over the years. 💚

Like the Boston fern on the right side. I rotated her to grow new leaves, but damn look at the size change. I got her in a 6 inches pot back in 2017 and placed her in a dark room... Yeah, that didn't go well and she was dying on me, so I ran for her life and repotted her in this pot and placed her on our side yard at our previous house, covered by trees. She loved it there and regrew beautifully.

Then she moved with us to our current home. I had to put her on the back of my pickup truck, wrap her in beach towels and locked her with bungee cords and drove on the freeway for about 1hr.

She is strong and I love her so much! 💚

That's me, enjoying my morning coffee with my husband and appreciating all of these plants!

I bought this Boston fern for my parents when I still lived with them and now it's so huge that I covet it intensely

I just want you to know it's not as big as it looks, it's bigger. This thing is taller than I am!

I got a Boston Fern yesterday and it's so large 😅 If any of y'all have or have had a Boston Fern, what kind of pots did you find do the best? I keep seeing mixed messages from the research I've done so far. Currently it's in a plastic pot? It looks like it's been thriving in there? But idk know if a terracotta or ceramic pot would be better? I want it to be a huge fern someday, so I'm just worried about the potential weight of a large terracotta or ceramic pot in case I eventually want to relocate it.

watering day for thirsty girls

last weekend (when the weather was unseasonably hot), mum helped me repot the violets, again, because everyone with fresh soil had inexplicably sprouted a fluffy white bed of fungal filaments. i don't know exactly what it was or how it got there -- reusing the coddling bags? perlite or sphagnum moss that had been left out in the rain? inadequately cleaned pots? -- but it seemed like it probably wasn't great for them, or for me, you know? since their shelf is literally over my bed and all, and they were all persistently a bit wilty.

i watered them after repotting, but not too heavily, and i didn't put any bags over them this time because i wanted the soil to get better air circulation. elmyra still had a small outbreak of fuzz but i sprayed it pretty thoroughly with an alcohol solution and it seems to have dried off... but now of course it's been a week of the heater running, drying out the air, and everyone was looking a floppy and thirsty, so they're all getting a nice drink and we'll see how things go from here. all the elmyras seem to be bearing up well after being divided; pinky and brain both got significant pruning (and poor brain has ended up quite lopsided) but i'm confident they'll both be fine. little sister has had the most trouble adjusting to being repotted -- very droopy outer leaves, but she also opened a bunch of flowers so idk. if she doesn't perk up after this watering i'll trim off the saddest leaves and see if that helps :/ so far, little sister and baby brain both have better conformation than big brain in terms of lifting their flowers up into a pompom above the leaves, which is interesting!

baby violets are all doing fine. big fern is, as always, living her best life. little fern, which i finally brought back to work, seems to be doing well, too, especially since i got a tiny spray bottle to mist her with. oh! and my mother's orchid is going to bloom! i don't even remember what color the flowers are, it's been so long. yellow with dark red accents, maybe? i don't think it's a purple one...
