Tradescantia fluminensis! This plant is one of the easiest to propagate in soil as it is not prone to root rot like many cuttings that are planted in soil.

She really likes to show off her purple hue as well. Keeping her in sun helps the color to remain vibrant.

She was my first plant purchase of 2020! ☺️💜

Tacca bat flowers are exotic and look like a bat in flight, hence their name. 🦇

They are actually orchids and bloom 🌺indoors throughout the spring and early autumn given the right conditions.
Keep bat flowers in temperatures 50 degrees or higher and under low to medium light. ⛅️ The soil should be light, well draining and able to retain some moisture (but not soggy). Don’t be surprised if you have to repot this baby annually since they grow fast and rarely go dormant! 🤓

I’ve finally got a new leaf coming in on my philodendron mayoi! 😍🥳 She likes to live in the shade with rich organic soil that doesn’t dry out completely.
One of my favorites in my #philodendron collection! 🌱

Hoya Carnosa tricolor gets the highlight for #foliagefriday!
This draping succulent produces a beautiful cluster of star-shaped flowers and has thick, waxy leaves.

The leaves and stems absorb water which makes it unique from many other plants that soak up water mostly through their roots.

As a result hoyas appreciate a good misting and bright, filtered sunlight ☀️to encourage blooms and healthy leaves. 💧Water every 1-2 weeks.

#Hoya varieties are a must in any houseplant collection!

#funfacts Did you know orchids are one of the oldest family of flowering plants? 🌸

The largest orchid weighs over 100 lbs and the smallest orchid is the size of a dime! 😮

Some orchid blooms also grow upside down due to their weight.

Kalanchoe thyrsiflora “Paddle plant”, a soft succulent that loves sunny ☀️ areas! 💦Water deeply when the soil has completely dried out.

Feed quarterly with a cactus/succulent fertilizer 🤗

Plants Make Me Happy started in 2019 and has really began to blossom. I love sharing indoor plant care tips, photos and the peace found in plant therapy with other plant enthusiasts. I’m certainly looking forward to what 2020 has in store!☺️💚

Blooms on a Dracaena Fragrans aka corn plant. 🤗🌸 Corn plants are extremely popular but rarely are their beautiful blooms seen indoors.
Although Dracaena Fragrans will adapt to most light settings they prefer more light than most homes afford to produce these creamy white and fragrant flowers.

Dracaena Fragrans can reach over 6 ft tall inside and prefers its soil to dry out before watering.

The best way to understand their care needs are to observe the leaves of the plant.

Browning tips often indicate inconsistent watering.
If you are unsure about when to water check the soil. If the soil is dry 1-2 inches down then it’s time for a drink.

These are relatively low maintenance plants and add a nice pop of color and floor decor to most spaces! 🤗💚🌱

Crotons get a bad wrap sometimes for being basic or finicky and dramatic but if you have ideal conditions for growth you learn to love these little rugrats. 🙂

Crotons are native to the Pacific Islands and Southern Asia and prefer full sun. ☀️ Some varieties adjust to partial shade but the intensity of its color is directly related to how much sun it gets. If you notice new leaves turning more green the plant is not getting enough light.

They do not like temperatures below 60 degrees so keep indoors unless you live in warmer climates. 💦Water frequently during the growing season and mist frequently. They love humidity!
Crotons are also one of the top air purifying plants and are the perfect choice for #foliagefriday!

#airplants are one of the few houseplants that do not require soil or water to survive.
As a result you can get especially creative with them! 🌱☺️ Soak once a week in a small glass of spring or distilled water for 10 minutes and provide bright, filtered light ☀️for optimal growth.
