My Passion for Plants



While some vegetables were sown in the fields at Beaumont, Canada, I also got in-door plants that I eventually re-potted to display in-doors and make the house in Beaumont come alive, especially that it is now summertime. With the rest of my friends having already converted their houses with these so-called inside gardens and using up all available spaces in it, to_showcase their collections of all kinds of ornamental and exotic plants, I am just beginning to appreciate said plants for in-door purposes.

I have always been a gardener in that I plant them into the grounds and never potted them or brought them in-doors. It is only now that I decided to extend my passion in planting and raising in-door plants. It all started with a in law's niece gifting me with a nerve plant and then seeing more when I went shopping with Bruce, which were good bargains and he bought for me. So I started with these two kinds of nerve plants and another two, called angel plants.

 These plants maybe few for now, but I will make it a point to add more while summer is still on-going and maybe many more next year. Would you like to join the bandwagon of what we call "plantitas' and "plantitos?" These are just terms referring for lovers of plants.

 I learned to plant whatever there is in my mini garden in my front yard. Our soil here in Mcallen, TX is not very good (mostly clayish), and so we need to mix it with Miracle potting soil and compost just so plants will thrive. Otherwise, plants are thin and hardly bear flowers..But the soil is very good for oranges and grape fruits though..Very sweet!

I have seen you post your mini-garden and despite the small area you are planting to, it is still a lovely garden to be proud of. Soil in Beaumont, where I have a true fondness for planting now is also clayish after its top soil. So plants will thrive and also others will not. It is just finding the right spot there where plants will be prosper and thrive.
