Three shades of gold, one legendary bloom

🏆Three shades of gold, one legendary bloom

🏆 Adenium Thong Samsee has flowers at different stages on the same plant - from pink to yellow and white, creating the impression of a whole garden in bloom!
🏆 The name Thong Samsee comes from the Thai language and consists of three words:

Thong

Sam

See

Thong Samsee

🏆 This name refers to the variety's unique trait: its flowers go through three color stages - from soft yellow to pink and nearly white - creating the impression of multiple shades on one plant.
🏆 In Thai culture, the word (ทอง) - "gold" - symbolizes wealth and prosperity, while the number three can be associated with harmony and completeness. Therefore, the name of the variety may carry a wish for beauty and good fortune.

The secret of the black magic is unveiled: a black plant that thrives in neglect

🖤 The secret of the black magic is unveiled: a black plant that thrives in neglect

▪️This isn't just a houseplant - it's a living spell. The black ZZ plant (Zamioculcas x Black Dragon) is as mysterious as it is mesmerizing, with leaves so dark they look dipped in ink. Forget green - it's all about black - a rare, glossy marvel for collectors who crave the bold and unusual.
▪️ New leaves start green... but don't be fooled. With time, they turn rich, velvety black - a transformation worthy of legend.
▪️ It's not just a pretty face. Unlike any ordinary plant, this one survives on neglect. Forget to water? It won't blink. It stores water in its thick rhizomes like an ancient desert dweller, making it one of the toughest houseplants out there.
▪️ It even shares a trick with ancient relics like Gonatopus - a rare power in the plant world. It's got ancient roots - literally. Its oddball talent of dropping leaflets that sprout into baby plants makes it one of the few plants in the world that can clone itself this way!

🛒 Collectors, the secret is out: bring home the magic of the the black dragon

❓ Why does everyone want a Miracle fruit plant?

✨ Because it's pure magic for your taste buds! The small red berry of Miracle Fruit (Synsepalum dulcificum) contains a natural compound called miraculin that temporarily makes sour things taste sweet.

Adenium Candy

🍬 Don't eat this candy… it's too pretty to unwrap!

🍬 With its bold colors and ruffled texture, Candy is a joyful little show-off and a must-have for your garden candy shop. See photos of actual Candy Adenium in next post 👇

Too weird to ignore, too easy not to grow!

⚡️Cryptocereus (Selenicereus) anthonyanus - Zig-Zag Cactus. Also known as Anthony's Rick-Rack or Fishbone Cactus, this oddball epiphyte is famous for its zigzagging, succulent leaves that look like a green lightning bolt.
⚡️ In nature, it climbs trees using aerial roots, but it's happy in a pot too.
⚡️Give it bright, indirect light and let the soil dry out completely between waterings.
⚡️In spring, it may reward you with a rare night-blooming flower that lasts just one magical evening.
⚡️ Easy, sculptural, and full of character!

🛒 Add this oddball to your jungle
