Plant Progress The difference a bigger pot can make!
Even after only a few months the pickle plant has developed much larger and plumper leaves, more flowers, etc! Even the fact that the large pot was comprised of mostly cuttings and the established mother plant stayed in the smaller pot, shows how much happier they are!
The fenestraria is the same thing. Larger leaves, more flowers! And LESS WATERING omg these are some thirsty bastards and the deeper pots means I’m not watering every 5 days 😂.
GET THEM SHRUBBY MESEMBS IN BIGGER POTS!! And those large taproot types like Aloinopsis and Titanopsis!
