Step 3.
A thanksgiving cactus cutting all potted up in its wee pot. Now just repeat for as many or as few cuttings as you have. Put them somewhere with moderately consistent temperature and light and you're good to go.
Don't forget to check on them once or twice a week for watering (depending on how hot your space is) and then in time you'll have some beautiful new plant babies ๐Ÿ˜„

Step 2 of propagating!
Here I am doing some Schlumbergera truncatus (commonly known as Thanksgiving cactus) which I promise is easier to propagate than its name suggests.
Simply cut off a small section like shown in the photo, dip it into your choice of rooting hormone and then place it into some well-watered soil. Easy as! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Are you a fuzzy leaf fan?

Did you know that plants use this fuzz as a survival technique, as it helps with water loss and makes the plant more drought tolerant. Which is great to know if you're a forgetful waterer as plants with their signature wooly look could be the ones for you.

Pictured - tradescantia sillamontana, also known as white velvet (for obvious reasons ๐Ÿ˜)

Do you have much luck growing 'indoor' plants outside?

Some of mine I've hardened off to endure the harsh winters here in the South Island but others have not done nearly as well ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Comment below what normal house plants you have had success with outside ๐Ÿ˜
(especially handy when you run out of room inside!)

Is anyone giving their plants a good chop before Spring? โœ‚๏ธ
I know I do every year! It's a great time to cut all those growth points to encourage a bushier plant when all that glorious new growth comes through with the change of season.

This growing season we are beginning to propagate a range of plants ourselves. This will mean we can have small, easy care plants available online and at the markets we attend for an affordable price.

Who doesn't like the sound of that? ๐Ÿ˜
