This is the closest that I've got to a Christmas plant - a Dracaena marginata with fairy lights on it! @houseplanthour #HouseplantHour

I can highly recommend this course - I did it earlier this year - so much fascinating information about houseplants 🪴 #HouseplantHour @houseplanthour https://t.co/OpON95sdfI

Calathea is the latest for the compost 😢 In the past few months I've managed to kill a Monstera, 2 Dendrobiums somehow a Tillandsia 😣 @houseplanthour #HouseplantHour

Spathiphyllum has a single flower @houseplanthour #HouseplantHour

The lithops that I sowed back in March are some of the few plants that I've not managed to half kill in the past two months! Already getting their second set of leaves. @houseplanthour #HouseplantHour

All my plants are being rather neglected currently as I have injured my back. Just as I was getting resigned to some things not making it my Spathiphyllum has decided to put out a flower! @houseplanthour #HouseplantHour

Not what I'd usually consider to be a houseplant, but this musk melon is growing inside the conservatory and it tastes fantastic! 🍈 @houseplanthour #HouseplantHour

#AsTheNightRollsIn Spending a couple of nights glamping in the western Brecon Beacons - it's a gorgeous spot 😍

I think that the binomial names are as follows: Lasiocampa quercus, the Oak Eggar; Pterostoma palpina, the Pale Prominent; Ennomos alniaria, Canary-shouldered Thorn; Amphipyra pyramidea, Copper Underwing Please correct any mistakes that I've made! @WWTSlimbridge #MothsMatter

Here are some of the macro moths that I saw @WWTSlimbridge last night Oak Eggar, Pale Prominent, Canary-shouldered Thorn, Copper Underwing. Many thanks to the staff and volunteers sharing their knowledge - I really enjoyed it and learnt a lot #MothsMatter

Saw quite a few #Perseids on Weds night, unfortunately no photos of them, but did manage to get some other nice shots. Many thanks to @PrioryLlanthony for letting us use their grounds #DarkSky #MilkyWay #StormHour

Shiny new alocasia leaf! I thought that the plant was on it's way out but the recent heatwave seemed to make it perk up again 🪴 @houseplanthour #HouseplantHour

21:15 update - looks as if the bee has decided that it wants breakfast in bed tomorrow morning so is spending the night on the sunflower! Sweet dreams little bee! #flowersonfriday #AsTheNightRollsIn 🐝🌻

A bee decided to pose on my sunflower this evening especially for #flowersonfriday #AsTheNightRollsIn 🐝🌻

My Begonia maculata 'Wightii' has started to flower! I'm really pleased about this as I only got in Dec, as a first attempt at growing begonias 😊🪴 @houseplanthour #HouseplantHour
