A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The House Plant Forum Showing off... LOTS of pictures.

I have a bunch of new plants and cuttings. Some of them I'd never heard of. These are pictures of most of them. I'm a bad photographer.

Wow! You have a lot of succulents- they look great! I've only just started collecting succulents, but they are so neat looking. :O)

hi amany... good looking group of plants. but... can you do the dial up folks a favor? can you only post 3 or 4 pictures that size to a post? you can answer yourself and add more, but it makes it easier for the pictures to load.

and now a technical question? are those plastic drink cups you have there?

Thanks Jiffy. The next time I have pictures, I'll be sure to add just a few at a time.

The plants are in 4 oz plastic cups. They are just a tad bit smaller than two inch round clay pots. Using them was a cost saving measure. I got a pack of 50 of them from the dollar store. Then I heated the end of knife and used it to make nice sized holes at the bottoms for drainage.

good ideea. i have a pack we aren't using, maybe i'll use them for that!

that is a cool idea

i have a few yogert cups that i was planning on using

Hi Amany you plants look good,I have
some like them not alot But the cups work good to for
starting plants in they are all nice looking good luck with
your new start i sent to you do u have the rooting powder
up there in stores it will help it take roots better and grow alittle faster good luck

Beautiful! I love to see other people's happy plants Thanks. I Googled the oscularia deltoides, which (whom?) I didn't know, and found this:

I want one! Thanks for the pics! Good growing!

Hi Betty. Thanks for the start. I received it a couple of days after I'd taken those pictures for a couple of my coworkers. I work with two plant enthusiasts. Otherwise I'd have taken a picture of the hoya cutting you sent me. It's very cute! Thanks so much. :-) I've never used rooting hormone, but I've read that a lot of people have success with it. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Margaret, thanks for sending the link. I hope I can successfully grow the oscularia. Even if I never get the flowers. It's such a good looking plant. My picture just doesn't do it justice. The person that gave me the cuttings said that they can be difficult to root, so I'm going to give it time and hope for the best. I think just about any plant, if given even time and care (or neglect) can grow beautifully. Plant growing is teaching me a lot about patience.
