One year ago, on October 3 to be exact, I wrote my inaugural post for A Potted Life! It’s hard to believe that an entire 365+ days have gone by since that first leap I took into writing a plant care blog. What an adventure it has been!
Since starting my blog, I’ve gathered a significant number of plants into my home (and have written about most of them). Bird of Paradise, Fiddle Leaf Fig, Triocolor Stromanthe, Aloe, Monstera Deliciosa… just to name a few. Today, instead of writing about plant care tips, I’m sharing a few of my favorite posts with all of you!
Halloween DIY: Spooky Succulent Planters
One of my few, and also favorite, DIY projects on the blog, this post was all about sprucing up your plants with a Halloween-themed planter! With materials you can find at the local dollar store, this project was budget-friendly while also producing some seriously cute results.
Botany 101: An Introduction to Botanical Science
What better way to start your plant care journey than by reading up on botanical sciences! From one of my all-time favorite classes, I learned about the classifications of plants, their unique cellular makeup and reproductive patterns, and how important they are to the ecosystem and our planet.
Monstera Deliciosa: The Lush Floor Plant with Iconic Leaves
What can I say… my monstera plant has quickly become one of my favorites. (And not just because it seems to thrive without a lot of attention.) I have loved these plants from afar for many years, and finally brought one into my home. I love watching new leaves uncurl and how each on is different from the last.
The Five Places You Can Buy Indoor Plants
Nothing can be more troubling than not knowing the best places to purchase indoor plants. I remember wondering for a long time where I should go! This blog post delves into all the popular places you can buy plants, along with the pros and cons of each. I hope it helps you!
As always, I’m glad you’re here and share in my love of plants! If you have plant care questions or comments, I’m excited to hear them! Until then, keep enjoying my plant care blog.
XO,
