My masto posts haven't gotten much attention lately. Maybe I'm not using hashtags right or all my followers dropped off when I stopped posting for months?

Ah well, i know what the "mastodon algorithm" really likes: #BLOOMSCROLLING!

Granny aloe is in bloom again! Also, I finally bothered to correctly identify it as a soap aloe, #aloe #maculata, from South Africa! Came a long way to end up on my porch! The aloe vera (not pictured) is also doing well, and I even accidentally hybridized them so now I'm growing one of a kind aloes!

New leaves call for new macro!

My lil pink-spotted angel wing is blooming for the first time ever, so proud đŸ„č👏

The rest are of my oldest plant, an Alocasia Poly. One day it will be too big for my place, but until then I will celebrate every new leaf - especially with a little back-lighting! 🔩

Old image of my #Heteroscodra.#maculata #tarantula 'Lilith' for @[email protected]. She was far and away my favourite T at the time (and I had a couple of P. metallica), really docile and so beautiful! Really pleased I didn't get tagged by her, I believe the experience to be 'invigorating'. She must've been mature when I bought her as she never moulted and only lived a couple of years.
