All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

So I wanted a bit of greenery at my desk, and decided to set up a small garden. It's coming along! The plants in order from left to right, top to bottom:

  • Sansevieria Trifasciata
  • Tradescantia Zebrina
  • Mentha Suaveolens
  • Hypoestes Phyllostachya
  • Hoya Carnosa
  • Portulacaria Afra

I had a problem with spider mites, but hopefully by taking cuttings of the mint and dumping the rest of the plant we're all good.

(Second time attempting this post, phones are not great with posting images.)
