I've been trying to avoid jumping into other plant interest areas (specifically orchids), but I have slowly started expanding into plants that have interactions with insects. I've been posting on the Ant Plants that I have been growing, but I've also been trying my hand at growing carnivorous plants and I'm doing ok with Drosera.
I've also had Nepenthes, Venus Fly Traps, Saraccenia - but the climate in Ewa Beach is pretty rough in the summertime. I think I'll stick with the Drosera for a awhile!
Also - I've gotten a couple of new Kalo plants and have gone full into raising them in small water pots. This variant is "Black Magic" - I've only had it a short while and it has thrown up two flower spikes already.
And I've gotten one other that I'll post on as soon as I can get a picture.
My daughter Noe got me interested in succulents in early 2016 and ever since we've been on a quest!!! Naturally with so many new plants around, we needed pots to put all of them into. The typical pots you can buy from the big box stores just don't have character that suits these incredibly interesting plants. So we've both been making our own pottery. And now we're branching out into other plants - Aeroids, Orchids and Citrus!!! Check out what our green thumbs have been doing!!!
