Okay sooooooooooo I had originally wanted to post yesterday but I ended up going out to this massive plant shop and now, I’m obsessed. My coworker gave me my first three plants and yesterday I bought my first plant and my boyfriend even bought me one so now I have FIVE PLANTS. I’ve always loved flowers and plants but now that my boyfriend and I are living together, we needed some plants of our own. I guess really they are mine but maybe he will take care of them too.
I actually have a lot to say about this newfound hobby. FIRST….did you know there is such a thing as PLANTSTAGRAM!?!?! Before I created my Bookstagram, I didn’t know that existed either and now I am SUPER tempted to create a plantstagram but seriously I have 4 instagrams already and a fifth might be a little excessive. You’re probably reading this and going FOUR. Yes, FOUR. My personal one, a photography one, a food one with my boyfriend that he INSISTED we make to show what we eat but he never posts to it and my bookstagram. There’s just something I like about keeping all my things and posts separate. I wonder if anyone I know has a plantstagram. I can tell you most definitely I will have a page dedicated to my plants on here that’s for sure! I already joined a few plant Facebook groups and am excited and scared to dig in! Pun intended! There are also a few books I saw online about planting and plants and I will eventually read those. I love when all my hobbies come together!
Do any of you reading this like plants? Any tips or tricks for someone just starting out with plants? Please let me know!
Okay I had no idea there was planstagram! But it makes sense haha there’s an instagram for everything it seems! I’ve become a bit of a plant collector too, though most of mine live outdoors/in the garden. I’m slowly sneaking them into the house but boyfriend isn’t keen haha (he won’t realise). I have a whole shelf in the library dedicated to my garden books – love that we have this in common! Fingers crossed you keep them all alive, but if not no big deal, you just start again 🙂
As for tips – I have no idea what I’m doing, I just make it up as I go along. But a good quality potting mix will never go astray!
