Plants by post?

Hello to all of you readers! Today was a great day because I got some new plants in the post. I've never received plants  via mail before so I was very excited to open them up and see what was inside. 
We moved house a couple of weeks ago and I will share a full post of all the plants in their new spots soon. For now, here's the recent delivery pictures.

The plants packaged up


This is them all stretched out with a drink

With added new pots for them to grow and be happy


String of pearls in it's new location

The tradscantia nanouk, monstera adansonii and golden pothos

I've put the heart shaped hoya kerrii in the kitchen and the rest in my study! Which one's your fav? I'm looking forward to watching the baby adansonii grow and develop it's holes. I had a tradscantia in the past  but it died so I'm hoping this one will fair better. I also already have a pothos but I love it so much I wanted another. 
Thanks for reading, I'll share those pictures of all the other plants soon 😊

Quarantine means a deep plant therapy session!

We're in a lockdown situation at the moment and what better time to give all the plants some much needed TLC. Mostly dead leaf removal, a couple had died and some had grown out of their pots so were bigger ones.
Gave the window plant shelf a spruce up too.

The pilea leaves in the glass I'm trying to propogate.


Jade looking massive, what a success.




After monstera went a bit yellow I was worried but look at that! A new leaf! I was overjoyed to see that.

January 2020

Terrarium number two featuring Gigi and a sleepy cat.


This guy is doing very well indeed!

Pilea baby from a cutting from my bigger plant below.

Tall boy needs an upgrade soon! Sorry yellow turtle.

Better picture of the pilea without showing the yellow leaf.

Got this ashy cutie from a plant swap.

Monstera is so big now but not the healthiest she's been unfortunately and I have cut off four leaves, still some are going yellow and I've got a massive pot, tried coffee and new fertiliser. Maybe she's just unhappy.

Some of you may remember this tall guy?

Santa is now sideways.

Another success story, this beautiful jade. This was our "Christmas tree" last year. Must remember to take decorations down ...

Fairly new but doing well.

Mr stabby hasn't changed much

This guy is doing ok to say he's stuck in the bathroom.

Cute air plant from my mum is doing well in the bathroom too.

Here's the massive pilea that's had loads of cuttings.
