Seattle Pacific University Greenhouse

Happy New Year Falcons! Starting next week on monday the greenhouse will be open to visitors again! Time to start a great quarter!!

Our Chinese Evergreen just popped out these little flowers over the weekend!

So happy to announce that we raised a total of $630 for the Trevor Project with our plant sale! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

Plant sale is back on, with revised dates! Stop by the Eaton Breezeway to pick up some new leafy green friends, all for a good cause!!

Come drop by the Eaton Breezeway this Thursday/ Friday to pick up some plants! All proceeds from the sale will be donated to the Trevor Project, an organization that supports lgbtq+ youth :)

Because we no longer have open hours, we will be posting a featured plant once a week so we can still participate in our community of learning!

First up is our Kalanchoe diagremontiana, or life plant! This plant is indigenous to Madagascar. It reproduces by producing little clones on the ends of its leaves (second picture) and dropping these clones into surrounding soil. While this individual plant is fairly young, it’s genetic material has been around for about 50 years!

Stick around next week for more fun plant facts! @ Seattle Pacific University Greenhouse
