Of all the plants I am currently propagating, this little clipping is my favorite. After a bit of research, I believe it is a Glacier pothos. It just sprouted its first little root and I can’t wait to watch it explode with growth.⁣

I recently made it a point to to seek out more Black content creators in the various niches I am passionate about - food, plants, travel, animal rescue etc. to follow, share, and support. Some I follow from this account and some from my other account. ⁣
⁣
In doing so, I found some really fun fellow plant lovers that I think you might also enjoy following:⁣

This is the String of Pearls plant that I took my clippings from for the propagation in my last photo. Am I the only one that finds propagation so rewarding? The only problem is that I am running out of places to put plants because I just keep making more.

I’d say that my string of pearls propagation is going well!

Prin is just checking to see if it is safe to come out of quarantine yet.

And so it grows. If you need me, I’ll just be over here quarantining in a greenhouse.

This is how Emma does social distancing

My Prin girl is the very best one.

THE MOUNTAINS OUT!! Jon and I plan to hike as much as we can during this time. Right now I am sipping on coffee, and reading trip reports to find snow free hikes in our area. Here is a beautiful photo from a hike we did a couple years ago. It is the Skyline Trail Loop in Mount Rainier National Park. I’ve done this hike multiple times and no two times were the same. Nature is amazing.
