心心相印 💕 龜背芋它葉片本來的樣子就是有『心』了… 不過咱們就別細想它的"千瘡百孔"啦! 穿孔哲學也定是要保持美美的。哈哈哈! 😆😂 well, 今夜等色乾油染後即可縫製，並且與皮夾內層縫合。以上報告。The work progress. 💋 ℒan~*

📌 monstera deliciosa 龜背芋 ("swiss cheese plant" or "split-leaf philodendron")又名龜背竹、羽裂蔓綠絨、鳳梨蕉、蓬萊蕉及電信蘭，適應性強，性喜溫暖，潮濕的環境，但也耐陰、耐陽及有一定的耐旱性，原產於墨西哥的熱帶雨林中。為著名大型觀賞植物。也是園藝新手的好選擇，屬於半日照植物，請記得千萬不要將其曝曬於陽光下過久，容易有曬傷發黃的現象。 因其葉子長得像龜背上的花紋，所以龜背竹也同烏龜一樣代表著健康長壽之意。

Plant of the Day

Thursday 25 January 2024

The evergreen shrub Monstera deliciosa (Swiss cheese plant, custard plant, fruit salad plant, Indian ivy, Mexican breadfruit) climbs using aerial roots. This is a commonly grown houseplant with heart-shaped, pinnatisect and often perforated, glossy deep green leaves and there is a variegated form, Monstera deliciosa 'Variegata'.

House Plants: Monstera (Swiss Cheese Plant)

Plants are like people: they’re all different and a little bit strange.

Inktober Challenge 2024

Day 1 - Backpack Day 2 - Discovery (Telescope) Day 3 - Boots (my own hiking boots as inspiration!) Day 4 - Exotic (Monstera Deliciosa - one of my house plants!)

Decided to do the Inktober Challenge this month, doing my Simple Things drawings - which I haven't done in a few years!

Feels nice to do traditional ink drawings again.

At some point I'll upload these drawings as cards on my Etsy store.

My living room plants are by far my favourite 🌱

This guy grew this root in like a week! Wtf? Plants are slightly scary. We should be slightly afraid of them.

it's my birthday now i'm gonna talk about my new plants!!!

Dracaena masoniana or 'whale fin' are probably my favourite kinds of snake plants, on account of them being literally 1 leaf. I've been wanting one of these for a long time so I have a little treasure trove of random facts already stored in my head.

Leaves can grow up to three feet inside, and are often grown as a single leaf plant, though as you can see this plant can grow multiple. contrary to what you might think when you see this picture, each leaf is actually very sturdy and thick.

the one I have is quite young but as they age they become darker (I seen an absolutely ginormous one when I was getting this one)

Pilea peperomioides or Pass It One Plant (named for the fact this it always has little plant babies you can plant in another pot and give as a gift, which, cute)

This one has also been on the list of plants I want mostly because like all of my other plants, it looks a little weird. Adding to the weird look (or making it I guess) is the fact that the stem connects just off center of the leaf, while most plants have stems that connect to the ends of the leaves.

like many house plants this one is low light! (though most low lights actually tend to do well in indirect light) this one is also non toxic!

Senecio rowleyanus or more commonly know as string of pearls is a vine succulent with some very neat looking orbs that they use to store water (these are the leafs and like all succulents they tend to store more water than other plants, making them a great choice for people who forget to water their plants)

These little guys are toxic so don't eat them and don't let your pets eat them (worry not. This on is wayyyy out of reach of the cats)

These funky looking plant vines can grow to two and maybe even three feet (under the right conditions) With better photos of the 'pearls you can actually see a translucent stripe that runs lengthwise. This stripe is there for optimized photosynthesis, but is also helpful to let you know when they need to be watered because then they're running low on water and the 'pearls' appear to pucker.

Maranta leuconeura or Prayer plant

This unique plant gets it's name from that fact that during the day it's leaves stay open and flat as you can see here, but during the night they close like praying hands.

Like many of the plants I've been talking about, this one also darkens in colourization as it ages, and adds red stripes to the outside of the leaves. This amazing plant can also reach up to one foot indoors.

This plant is native to the Brazilian tropical forest but has been popularized as a house plant over time.

Monstera Deliciosa or just Monstera

I actually already have one of these but compared to my little four leaf plant, this on is practically a tree. I don't know if you can tell from the picture but this thing is massive we're talking like 3 feet tall already with leaves bigger than my cats (even the fat one)

The size is probably also one of the appealing aspects of this plant, which can grow up ten to fifteen feet tall and eight feet wide, and leaves that can measure up to eighteen inches across.

These pants actually get the latter part of their name Deliciosa as they are actually a fruit bearing plant. it can take around two to three years for it to bear fruit, and then it takes the fruit ten months to ripen. You'll want to wait for it ripen too, because eating unripened fruit can cause serious burns to your throat. I've heard the wait and risk are well worth it though because it has been described as one of the best tasting fruits out there (often being called the fruit salad plant because the fruit tastes like many fruits all at once?)
