Do you remember , back in August I thought I'd have a little go at growing fern spores .
I didn't say much about it at the time , as I didn't think anything would happen .
I just lay a fern leaf on top of some compost in this little seed pot and up popped these tiny immature fern thingies .
Well , lets take a look at them now .
Isn't that amazing ! So sweet . I guess I'll have to prick them out and pot them on soon .
That could be a bit scary , they look so delicate .
This is where I was growing them . On the bathroom windowsill .
The Orchid is still flowering . Orchid flowers last such a long time .
I'm not all that good at growing Orchids , but I have managed to keep two going on this windowsill .
Bringing in wood for the fire now , on the other side of the porch .
I can't resist picking up fir-cones to watch them open up .
All for today .
🌿 Peace and Love and have a great week 🌿🤍🌿
I was told years ago to treat Orchid with no care at all, and they thrived for me, sadly they don't like this house and will only grow in one room.
ReplyDeleteI don't do much with mine either . Maybe every three or four years I might change the bark chips they are growing in . Mine also only like being on the bathroom windowsill ! 💐
DeleteFerns are fascinating. The life cycle is so unusual. We have some that have self propagated in the garden and in pots containing other plants.
ReplyDeleteHi Sue , I think they are such graceful plants . I especially love to see their new crosiers pushing up in the Spring time .
