Dumb Cane

Buying plants can become pricey over time especially when there are so many to choose from. There are many ways you can  grow your collection on a budget. One way is by looking in the clearance section of your local home improvement, nursey, or grocery store. Seeing that not all of these locations actually take the time to care for the plants when they begin to die back they are marked down or you can request them at a lower price. For example......

This is my  Dieffenbachia also know as a Dumb Cane that I purchased at Target for $8 even though I think I could have gotten it a bit cheaper but they would not budge any more on the price😞 . I think it was worth it though because after all of the love and care I put into it the outcome so far has been amazing.

After trimming back all of the damaged and dying leaves I wast left with stems and only one leaf. I have had this palnt for about 4 moths and it has been growing non stop. After about a month or 2 I changed it into a bigger pot and I think i can say that it is happy.

So at the end of it all it was definitely worth the price. Search for rescue plants they need love too and will appreciate you for it and as always stop back by to find out how my darling is doing. Be blessed!

Loving your plant almost to death! XXXXX

At my job there is a Peace Lilly that has been with the company for about 10 years. She has been a faithful employee in her job of bringing beauty to the front entrance once you walk in. She was hired by our cleaning lady who valued her very much so much in fact that she has been watering her to death! Slowly but surely😶. Being overworked to the point that overtime she has lost many leaves and her soil was full of mold at the top. That didn't keep her from trying as you can see she still produces occasional flowers.

 The company that we work for seemed to be giving up on her and she felt down she looked down too! I wouldn't let her give up so I decided to give her some tools that would help her perform better. We got rid of her old office with all the of the  jumk in it, filled her new office with fresh materials to make her feel good about her duties....AND NOW!

What do you think?  I think she can feel confident about her position now😀

I even hired a few team mates to make her job easier.


They are working great together already! I will let you know how the job has been going for them! Hope you enjoyed!

My New Green Maranta ( Rescue Plant )

Hi there,

          This is my official first blog post so excited ( and nervous ) either way I hope you enjoy!

So let's get to it, I have recently grown to love plants and find myself out buying them almost every weekend who can relate? 😅I don't think we have a problem and I speak for all of us because it helps you feel less crazy ya know? Let me introduce you to a new member of my ...still growing....plant family. My Green Maranta also known as the Prayer Plant.

I picked up this darling from Lowe's in the clearance section for only $7😌. As you can see it's quite damaged but all the best things are lol. This has been a new found interest of mine looking for plants that I can revive. Not only is it a great way to grow your collection it's also a little easier on the pocket's and  for all of you plant beginners there's learning and growing in this for you! Speaking from a personal stand point I have learned in caring for many of my plants through failing them I mean let's be honest you will have complications but when you find that balance the reward of a happy plant makes it all worth it.

In the photo below is just some of the damaged leaves that I pulled from the plant there were others with minor damage but I didn't want to shock the plant by removing to many leaves.



Through my time inspecting the plant I found that it was root bound. Very healthy roots though no wonder it wasn't happy😞



Look at all those roots! My goodness!



So I re-potted the plant and will be hoping for progress. Any questions, comments, or just some love for this post would be greatly appreciated. I hope you enjoyed and will be back in the future for updates!
