There's something magical about watching a new Monstera leaf unfurl 🌿
My Monstera deliciosa has just finished rolling out a fresh new leaf, and it's beautiful to see how perfectly formed it is with its characteristic fenestrations already visible. The bright, vibrant green of new growth always brings such joy to the indoor jungle.
These iconic splits and holes aren't just decorative – in their natural habitat, they help the large leaves withstand strong winds and allow light to reach lower leaves.
Er is iets magisch aan het zien ontstaan van een nieuw Monstera blad 🌿
Mijn Monstera deliciosa heeft net een vers nieuw blad uitgerold, en het is prachtig om te zien hoe perfect gevormd het is met de karakteristieke gaten al zichtbaar. Het heldere, levendige groen van nieuwe groei brengt altijd zo veel vreugde in de indoor jungle.
Deze iconische spleten en gaten zijn niet alleen decoratief – in hun natuurlijke habitat helpen ze de grote bladeren om sterke wind te weerstaan en laten ze licht door naar de lagere bladeren.

Yi-Qing Zhang et al. explored how microplastic abundances affect terrestrial wild plants, primary producers and foundational to food webs, particularly regarding their growth and the underlying mechanisms.

Vous pouvez féliciter mon cactus svp ?

2 cactus : Screen de story insta en seize neuvième vertical. Deux photos se superposent l'une au dessus de l'autre.
Le premier est un petit cactus (oponce subulé) d'environ 10cm de haut dans un petit pot en verre. Il est vert clair pétant.

Le second est un cactus de la même espèce (oponce subulé) mais beaucoup plus développé, avec beaucoup de branches assez hautes, d'environ 20, 25cm. Il est d'un vert plus sombre.

Un texte entre les deux photos : L'évolution de mon cactus [flèche vers le haut] Novembre 2018 - [flèche vers le bas] Octobre 2025.

Un troisième cactus rond apparaît sur le photo de 2018. Un texte dit : lui il est mort [smiley triste]

Many of my Nepenthes × ventrata cuttings are starting to sprout! 🌱 If the rooting goes just as well, I’ll soon have more ventrata than I know what to do with. A nice “problem” to have! 😉

Veel van mijn Nepenthes × ventrata stekjes beginnen te schuiven! 🌱 Als het wortelen even goed gaat, heb ik binnenkort meer ventrata dan ik kan gebruiken. Een fijn “probleem” om te hebben! 😉

My Cephalotus is growing new pitchers!
The fresh green traps are popping up between the older, darker ones. I love the contrast—this little Australian carnivore is always fascinating to watch.

Mijn Cephalotus maakt nieuwe vallen aan!
De frisse, groene vallen verschijnen tussen de oudere, donkerdere exemplaren. Ik hou van dat contrast—deze kleine Australische vleeseter blijft boeien.

My Nepenthes maxima × northiana is on a roll!
It keeps making new pitchers and just opened a second big one. I love its elegant curves and vibrant colors—this hybrid is thriving.

Mijn Nepenthes maxima × northiana blijft maar doorgaan!
Ze maakt voortdurend nieuwe bekers aan en heeft net haar tweede grote exemplaar geopend. Die sierlijke vormen en levendige kleuren… wat een prachtige hybride.

My Nepenthes maxima x northiana has grown its main pitcher to full size—and it's stunning! Even the basal shoots are opening their own little pitchers now.
Such a cool stage in its development!

Mijn Nepenthes maxima x northiana heeft zijn hoofd pitcher tot volle grootte laten groeien—en wat een schoonheid! Zelfs de basale uitlopers openen nu hun eigen kleine pitchers.
Zo’n toffe groeifase!

#Nitrogen (N) is a major limiting factor of #PlantGrowth during recovery requires in degraded grasslands in northern China, but whether soil N supply in this region can support long-term #VegetationRestoration remains unclear. Thus, Yaowen Zhang et al. conducted a #FieldInventory in seven #TemperateGrasslands in northern China.

My Cephalotus is waking up! New leaves are emerging, and I’ve spotted a few tiny traps forming. Always exciting to see this little carnivore grow!

🌿 Nepenthes alata surprise! 🌿

Still a small plant, but already pushing out basals with their own little pitchers! Love seeing this one grow and prepare for the future. Tiny but mighty! 🏺✨

🌿 Nepenthes {maxima × northiana} update! 🌿

My plant is putting in some serious work—growing a big new pitcher while also producing tiny ones on fresh basals! Love seeing this hybrid thrive. Can’t wait to see that big one open! 🏺✨

Many grasses are infected by systemic fungal endophytes that occur in aboveground plant tissues. Both aboveground #EndophyticFungi and belowground #SoilMicrobes can influence #PlantGrowth. Yaobing Qu et al. investigated whether the role of aboveground #Epichloë #Endophytes in the growth and competitive ability of the host grasses was influenced by soil microbes.
