The ZZ plant was well overdue for a repot so decided I'd do it before tree pruning today. Shouldn't take that long right?
Oh darling
Tumblr media
How greatly I underestimated what I was getting myself into. It took me several hours to untangle and tickle apart the roots from themselves before I could even think of repotting. I wish I took a photo after I got the roots free but I got interrupted during the repotting process due to having to help with a lamb and ended up forgetting.
The rootballs were so huge that I decided to instead divide apart some of the tubers where I could and repot them into several pots instead of a single giant pot.

one chunk of tuber got separated from the greenery but still had an eye so I threw it into a tiny pot to see what happens as well.

Two okay-ish stems got broken off accidentally so I decided to throw them in water to try rooting more up- not that I need more ZZ plants when one specimen has already become 3

While tree pruning outside is taking main priority I've been wanting to work on cleaning repotting up more of the houseplants so may try to juggle a little of each done each day. Will try to report for whichever houseplants get done next.

Plant of the Day
Friday 1 March 2024
It was only a few days ago I wrote about Iris 'Blue Note' (Reticulata) but my friend had such a lovely display of this small, early bulb, protected by a frame of Cornus alba (dogwood) stems, that here it is again!

If people make cutesy posts about growing food and herb spirals and composting but never talk about stuff like preventing and getting rid of rats in a garden, I get this suspision that they either haven't actually gardened much or they're more interested in presenting an aesthetically pleasing image than in actually preparing people to deal with a garden.

Proof that some plants just want to be left alone:
This is Mina. Mina is a Pilea peperomioides. Last spring I chucked her, a stump with half a leaf barely hanging on, out into the garden and did not touch her all summer. This is how she looks like now.
(She's currently getting a bath and a pesticide spray as the spider plant next to her got scale. Thankfully no sign of them on her, but better safe than sorry.)

I've been transplanting for 8 hours. But I got it done. Leaf in unlovable hand.
