  • houseplant habitat

    plants on sill (Small)
    One of the things that is taking a lot of my attention is houseplants. Since I started isolating, I've repotted nearly all of the ones I had and ordered a couple more online. I had a few houseplants, but gave them sporadic attention. Now I'm checking them everyday to see if they need watering, looking to see how much they've grown or gotten flowers. I don't have many and there are some duplicates, but the line of them on the living room windowsill pleases me. There are people who have much more room to display them and many more types and some part of me is envious, but realistically, I know it's not possible for me to have that amount in my apartment with the window space I have. I'm sure there are multi-level tables that would expand my space, but at this point, I can't afford that either.
    The photo above was taken soon after many of them were transplanted a few months ago, so most of them have grown much more since then. After getting over the first shock of repotting, nearly all of the plants were rejuvenated and some look as if they could be put into larger pots already. I'm pleased that they are doing well and hope they continue to. By no means do i have a green thumb, but I do get joy from my leafy roommates.
