Renewal not maintenance

Life is about renewal. The dying leaves of my hibiscus tree don't seem to be coming back to life. So, I trimmed them off to make room for the abundance of new growth that has been coming out of her since I adopted her. Since the day she came into my life, she has been strengthened and now has new shoots coming from all over her body!

All of my carnies are doing quite well except Nepenthes, who appears to be going dormant. I'm hoping for the best though, because Nepenthes does that and the experts say its nothing to worry about.

Where there was only stagnation, new growth has come about rather quickly from the hibiscus tree I received

.  Perhaps after 15 years, I can help her to bloom again.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dente has new life popping up all the time.

They are quite happy together

My oreophila also has new tendrils growing out of her body.

I trimmed off the dying leaves to allow more sun to nurture the new growth

Soon we will be leaving the solarium behind for a new home. I truly hope that the plants can be happy in their new home. I do not have a solarium for them but I do have a room with a long wide window. I will be investing in a green house next year.

A small sprout coming out right next to a leaf that had been dying. I trimmed the leaf to let the sun nurture its baby

The tiny green nodule above the stem is actually a new sprout

Nepenthes, hopefully just going dormant for the season
