It can be difficult to know when to repot your plants, especially Pothos, because they are such vigorous growers. My Golden Pothos has needed a repotting for some time. In this blog I will walk you through repotting Pothos plants. You will learn how to recognize the signs your Pothos needs to be…

People love their plants and they want to feel like they’re actively caring for them. However, some plants get too much love in the form of water. I once read someone say they love their plants to death referring to watering. I think it's common problem. In reality, we want to water, or love, our…

Fiddle Leaf Figs are having a moment in the spotlight right now. They have been a mainstay in the houseplant world, but have really grown in popularity the past few years. And why not? Show me a houseplant lover that doesn’t want a literal tree in their home. It can be hard to decide when to repot…

It’s repotting season at my house lately. Mainly because it’s winter, and it’s best to repot while plants are dormant. Also, my Monstera Delicsiosa has some roots popping out of the pot. Like my recent repotting posts for Pothos and Fiddle Leaf Figs, I’ll walk you through the basics so you can be…

I have a very nice Burgundy Rubber Tree, or Ficus Elastica. It has been doing great. However, I was realizing it's been in the same pot for several years. The top side is starting to look too big for that pot. I decided to tip the pot up to see if I saw roots coming out of the drainage hole and…

I've noticed my Pilea Peperomioides, or Chinese Money Plant, has been kind of soggy looking lately. It's actually hard to tell because I let mine grow very bushy with offshoots rather than pulling the pups. Luckily Pileas are pretty easy-going plants, so even though I think I may have overwatered…

I've recently noticed that my Philodendron Birkin's growth has slowed down. The Philodendron Birkin is typically a fairly vigorous grower, so I figured it might need a repot. In this post, I will walk you through spotting some of the signs that you need to repot your Philodendron Birkin. I'll also…

Last week I decided to take some cuttings from my Euphorbia trigona to propagate. I have some space to fill up in my greenhouse and propagating a plant I already have IS FREE. I will have another blog on propagating a Euphorbia trigona shortly. I hadn't looked closely at my Euphorbia trigona for a…

I will cover spotting some of the signs that you need to repot your plant. I'll also go through the steps to repot a…

My Gold Dust Croton is about eight years old. I've repotted it several times over the years. I once saw one that was a nice little tree about five feet tall inside an atrium at a hotel and that is my goal for my Gold Dust Croton. This one is about three feet tall right now and started at about six…

In late summer and early fall, the home improvement stores always have these beautiful bushy Crotons. I ended up getting one this year. I tend to prefer my plants to be a little more tree-like and less bushy, so I decided to divide this Croton. I'll walk you through my process for dividing croton…

A while ago I stuck one of my Crown of Thorns, or Euphorbia Milli, into a cheap bowl from the dollar store that I drilled a hole in. I didn't have any pots on hand at the time and it was a quick fix. It's probably been a year or two in the bowl and now it's time for me to repot this Crown of Thorns…

I do a lot of repotting blogs, and so far all my repotting posts have been about plants I have had for several years. However, I know many of you have questions about repotting newly acquired plants as well. I picked up a Croton Petra recently because the price and the size were right. I…

I have had my Money Tree for about five years. I have only repotted it once when I got it from the nursery. It was already pretty large when I got it. Over the years I have pruned it down drastically many times because it grows so tall. If you're interested in pruning check out my post on pruning a…

I've noticed my Chinese Money Plant, or Pilea Peperomioides, has been kind of soggy looking lately. It's actually hard to tell because I let mine grow very bushy with offshoots rather than pulling the pups. Luckily they are pretty easy-going plants, so even though I think I may have overwatered it,…

I have had my Pachira Aquatica for about five years. I have never repotted it except for when I first brought it home from the nursery. It was already pretty large when I got it. Over the years I have pruned it down drastically many times because it grows so tall. If you're interested in pruning,…

Over the past few months, I have noticed that my Fiddle Leaf Fig roots have begun to emerge from the top of the soil line. In fact, two very large roots are visible as you can see from the picture below. I've scoured the internet and done my research on this topic. I wanted to write a post to help…

I have a beautiful Tineke Rubber Plant. It has great color and has overall been doing great. However, I recently realized it's been in the same pot since I got it several years ago. The top side is starting to get really tall and it's looking a bit too big for its current pot. In this post, I'll…
