How do some people keep plants alive… let alone thriving? 🌿

How do some people keep plants alive… let alone thriving? 🌿

I had a visit recently with someone who has the most extraordinary green thumb I think I’ve ever seen

And I honestly don’t understand how she does it

Her outdoor plants spend the winter indoors
and somehow still look absolutely magnificent

Healthy
full
vibrant

Watch the video again, note it is not a nursery..

Meanwhile, I’m over here celebrating the fact that I kept a few plants alive at all 😂

There’s something calming about walking into a home filled with thriving plants
especially this time of year when everything outside is still waking back up

You can tell how much care goes into it

A little patience
a little consistency
and clearly… a lot more knowledge than I have

Spring always makes me want to try again though

Are you naturally good with plants…
or just trying your best like me?
