YES- the little pot with 4 walnut size ish baby ponytails. I wish they would do those again. They must be from seed?
I got my ponytail from MIL where it was a glued rock thing on an apartment windowsill. I've had it maybe.. 6 years? I guess I rescued it when she clearly wasn't thinking about it anymore. I'll have a pic later from phone.

Cool snake plant, is it very stiff and pokey? I have one that super sharp on the ends and even have a spine like tip. That's a nice fun planter it's in.
Plant it and they will come.

I think those pots of itty bitties are done from seed too. Why can't they just sell some seeds??! So many houseplants could be grown from seeds, if only they would just have some seed packets there with the houseplants.

I'll have to check the pokiness on that weird little snake plant... IDK.

Junk for scale - LOVE that! A lot of that going on @ my house too. Never know when you might need that old thing, usually the day after you finally decide to get rid of it.

Tiffany, I just LOVE that pot. It just "works" with your snake plants.

I'm playing musical pots today, hauling things from the basement, deciding who needs what, who's grown, who's looking iffy and can start smaller. Some for sure will grow or outgrow this situation but it's a start.

Fan palm, so sharp! It got some dry roots pruned at the bottom- as suspected I was not keeping it watered enough at the library and it should be very happy here for summer. It was a good lesson-- when I'd remember to water it more often, suddenly new leaves would emerge.

Coffee is going in a large pot to the left. It is thirsty too. Nice beans! Mealybugs love the beans. Grrr. I hope summer cures the meaybugs. It did wonders for mealybugs on my Aglaonema.
Back soon to add text on my Chromebook
Plant it and they will come.

Beautiful, Mrs_H! Thank you for sharing the pics.

Air plant is getting a lot more sun than previous years.

A new group pot. (wire thing lined with landscape fabric)

Another new pot of mostly Swedish ivy (Plectranthus verticillatus.) This pot manifested when I decided I needed to re-smother a spot where Hydrocotyle had established. The Plectranthus was one of the plants in that spot worth saving.

A hanging pot with Aloe and Neoregelia. The Neo should turn a bright raspberry color soon, it's faded from being inside for winter.

Thank you very much! The air plant has been growing between the Dracaena tree trunks for 9 yrs. The easiest-care plant that I have without competition.

9 years ! Wow ! I'm fairly new to air plants . They've only been with me for almost a year . I am all the happier that they are blooming now, I must have done something right Big Grin
I read somewhere that the plants die after flowering Blinking Is that correct ?

Those are pretty! That is what they say about air plants but if it's happening to mine, it happens too slowly to notice. The blooms are definitely noticeable, to me.
