I was cleaning my yard and I flipped over a tarp and officially met the fastest thing on four legs. cute lil salamander named him Timmy I brought this little guy inside so the kids could get a look at our new roommate (he was very polite, 10/10 guest)gave the kids a quick biology lesson overnight, and just released him back into the creek in my back yard I thought he’d give us a thankful wave, but instead, he pulled a "Fast & Furious" and disappeared into the water in approximately 0.2 seconds. See ya never, Timmy!!! 🦎✌️

I’ve been so glued to My Garden Tale lately, but I had to take a break for some real-life plant chores. This Tillandsia (air plant) got its weekly soak yesterday and is looking 10/10 today.with filtered water soaked for about 20-30 min I had a timer so I won’t forget her and placed her upside down on a paper towel to dry ! Sometimes the real-life "quests" (like not forgetting them in the water!) are the most rewarding.

I’m working on a special "Resurrection" money bowl today! My Rose of Jericho was a bit shy yesterday and didn’t fully open, so I’ve added more water to help her stretch out. I lit a white candle ! To set the intention for prosperity and flow, I’ve added: • 3 of each coin: Pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters to represent multiple streams of income. • 3 Cinnamon sticks: For protection, success, and speeding up the manifestation. As she "comes back to life" and turns green, it’s the perfect symbol for new growth and blooming finances!

If your Peperomia prostrata (string of turtles) looks like it’s growing tiny green tails , don't panic—your plant isn't turning into a cactus. It’s actually flowering! 🌸 While flowers are usually a cause for celebration, with String of Turtles, many growers choose to snip them off. ✂️ Why Prune the Flowers? • Energy Boost: The plant pours a ton of energy into these "inflorescences." By trimming them, you redirect that energy back into growing those gorgeous, plump "turtle shell" leaves. • Keep it Full: Removing flowers encourages the plant to focus on trailing and staying thick at the top. • Less Mess: These spikes don't stay pretty forever—they eventually dry up and shed tiny bits all over your shelf. Lil tip:I found that removing them with your nails is easier then clippers or scissors!

Lately, my downtime has been 100% dedicated to Garden Tale. It is so cute and addictive! Since we all love our greenery and "jungle" vibes here, I had to share it with you all. Check it out if you’re looking for something new to play—you can thank me (or blame me for the lost hours!) later! 😂🌺 It’s about flowers but same planty vibes!!
