The days are getting shorter here in Ohio and we know what that means...fall! 🍂 It’s my favorite season! It’s also time to start bringing in any plants you’ve put outside for summer. Start making room now. I’ve obviously got a lot more work to do. This is just 2 of our 4 shelves! 😅

Happy birthday to me! 🎉 Yesterday was my birthday and my grandma got me one of my wishlist plants. A Bird of Paradise! I can’t wait to watch this plant grow and try to keep my cats from crunching it 🤣

Did a little Pothos propagation on my stories this morning. I know it’s a hot topic right now what this plant is actually called. Epipremnum, Pothos, what do you call it? What is it actually called? 🥴😂 I love it either way! 💕🌱

We had a bloom!!! 🌼 This picture is deceiving because this cactus grows inside in an east facing window. I NEVER thought it would bloom (those are not ideal conditions for a cactus), but here we are! I was so excited when I saw it I almost couldn’t believe it! 😍🎉 @ Toledo, Ohio

Quick update post! We still have one dark stain propagation station and 3 natural stain propagation stations left!! I know someone has some plants out there that need propagated! 😉
I also wanted to take a minute to thank everyone for the amazing (almost overwhelming 😍😭) amount of support you’ve shown me with this page! I can’t do it without you all and you mean the world to me! I love you all! 💕🌱 @ Toledo, Ohio

EDIT: We actually did a little more digging and found out this is a epiphyllum ackermannii (Otherwise known as an orchid cactus) not a Christmas cactus. It’s ok to be wrong sometimes, right 😅🤷🏻♀️
Got up close and personal with a beautiful Christmas cactus at my grandma’s this weekend. She gave me a tour of her amazing backyard garden and we noticed this beauty was in bloom! Don’t worry, we didn’t bother the spider you can obviously tell has made a home of the plant 😉🕷
Does anyone else’s Christmas cacti bloom at weird times of the year?

Today is the first official day of summer and we are FINALLY seeing some sun here in Ohio! My plants (and I) couldn’t be happier! ☺️🎉 It’s been a LONG 👏🏻 ROAD 👏🏻 but we finally made it.
How long do you think it’ll be until our next long stretch of rain? 😂

I know it’s been really quiet around here, but I promised you it would be worth it. Here it is, friends. ✨
I’ve been working really hard, with the help of my dad and my husband (who knew power tools would be so hard to use?! I only sanded off 2 finger tips! 😂) to put together an amazing product.
Meet our new propagation stations! They are about 5” tall, 5” wide, 12” long, and come in 2 colors for now (dark or natural stain). Each one is a little different and hand made with love. 💕
You’re probably thinking, “Well, Maddi, they look great. But do they work?” You bet they do! I’ve been using our prototype for about a month now and if you’ll do me the honor of swiping right you’ll see the juicy roots that have been growing on my cute little baby plants my grandmother so graciously supplied for the samples. 😁
Let’s talk pricing! They are priced at $35 and if you live in the Toledo area the delivery or pick up option still applies! If you live farther away shipping is $5-$10 depending on where you live in the U.S. (sorry, no international shipping just yet).
I have 8 available right now (4 of each color). If you’re interested shoot me a message or DM and we can chat details! Thank you all so much for your continued support! 🌿✨ @ Toledo, Ohio

This is the prickly pear cactus that my uncle brought home for me from Florida. I didn’t expect it to really do much because I live Ohio and this poor thing is from Florida. The climate is a ~little~ different.
Well, I came home from work today to discover that this little one is sprouting a bloom (I believe? It doesn’t look like another pad) and has more trying to sprout from the very top! I’m so excited! I didn’t expect it to do anything and here it is living its best life!

PROPS UPDATE! Look at all that growth! The roots! The babies! It’s always so exciting to see how far they’ve come! Not long now and I’ll be putting them In their own tiny little pots 🥰🎉
