Greetings #Hivegarden friends. This is my entry for The Garden Journal August Challenge. You guys know that I like challenges, as I am finishing the semester I have had a little time, then I have been willing to review my photo archive to make the publication I got this one that is related to a garden, then I present you my story.
I visited this garden about a month ago, it is characterized by palms, trinitarians, cayenne, ferns, some hanging plants. But what caught my attention is that she has a mini collection of succulents, she says she has about 03 years buying one by one, others have been given to her as gifts.
At first she knew nothing about these beautiful thornless plants or cacti and the first ones that a neighbor had given her died because they rotted or the ants infested them with aphids. She then did some research on watering and maintenance. After reading this information, he gets excited and takes advantage of the fact that every time he goes to the Monday market he buys one or two, because the economy does not give him enough for more. Then look at the beautiful succulents he has so far.
I don't know the names of each succulent you are looking at because I have to consult more deeply and the internet costs are too much.
That succulent garden belongs to my dear aunt. I told her to give me permission to photograph each plant, and she gladly agreed. That is why I show the photos.
There is also a young woman who peddles, and she bought this one from him: it is called jade, it is nicknamed and little by little it is forming like a kind of a dwarf tree.
A few tips:
- Succulents should be watered weekly.
- They should not have a saucer under the pots.
- The soil must drain.
- They should receive sun indirectly.
- Do not water on the leaves, they rot.
I am very happy to show you this beautiful garden that you can see that its owner, my aunt, has dedicated time to its maintenance, I declare her a passionate gardener of the world. What do you say?
