Sometimes the sun makes it through the thick layer of clouds.
I bought few baby plants from a garden centre,
the choice is a bit boring though, big yawn...

I found that 1950's plant holder a little while ago,
I finally decided to sand it down and keep it natural.
My poor Pachira Aquatica is recovering,
it just needed more water and more light.
Apparently when the lower leaves dry and fall
it's because the lack of light. I lack light too :)

I also bought on-line a Ceropegia woodii (string of hearts),
it's the first time I purchased a plant on the web,
I wonder if it's a good thing.,
but you cannot find that plant anywhere around here.

I'm desesperate for light too...here it's been raining for ages.Where are you spring?Good night:)
i think the plants are lovely. i like the stand too. wishing you some sun soon!
I love your potholder, definitely best kept natural.
Huh, I never thought of ordering plants through the internet... I can't image how they would be packaged and mailed :^) Let us know! Curious, did you try ordering it through your nursery first? By the way - LOVE that plant. Have fun!
They look so beautiful in the light there, Alessandra! I have a 1950s plant stand too, but mine badly needs a sanding down ;) I think you've inspired me - it'll be my easter holidays project! Hope you have a lovely Easter :) Kx
I love that old plant holder, really nice so as the plants. We have light but still too much snow.
your plant holder is so lovely... want one, too:)
i got three string of heart plants, they live really long and you can make cuttings very easily.
c'est bon de venir se réchauffer le coeur ici :-)
Ciao Alessandra!
Your plant corner is wonderful, and the pot holder is so lovely; I've never seen one here in Italy, I think it's the perfect solution to give plants more relevance. Is the plant in the white vase on the floor a dracena head? I've got a tiny ceropegia woodii and I'm in love with its strings, it's easy to care and I'm going to try cuttings soon. I've also been in search of a string of pearls plant here but they seem to be disappeared; maybe they are on vacation in company of a certain english ceropegia..
;)
Happy spring and fight the grey!
I'm envious of that 50'd plant holder, what a great find! I wish for more light everyday!
I´m hoping for the weather be more Spring like to get new plants again,there was a storm here in November and everything i had in my terrace flew away or got destroyed!
Your vases seem very well taken care off :)
not so much sun light

Janis, unfortunately this is not Frisco! the closest nursery is miles away from here! not so easy, this part of England hasn't much that is not high street...sadly...
I'll let you know in which condition the plant arrive.
Elisa, perhaps it has something to do that people has little time to care for plants...sad that in Italy you cannot find more variety! nice to find you here :)
I love the plant holder - beautiful! What a lovely way to get some plant life into the home.
I love your plants and stand.
Ah, yes, I feel like my bottom leaves might start falling off soon! Your plant holder is a gem of a find. Thanks for the advice about the shoes, I must grudgingly admit that it looks like they will never be comfortable... :s
Elisa, PS: yes it is a dracena...also the string of pearl is really beautiful, it's on my wish list...good luck with your search and the cuttings!
Thanks for sharing these lovely photos. I too like to fill my living space with what I refer to as my 'green family'. I bought a 'string of hearts' at a local shop near to my office - it is a very good plant shop and very reasonable too. I feel lucky now knowing that these plants are hard to find.
