I’ve had a bit of bad luck with my Dieffenbachia - purely because of old soil and me not repotting it soon enough.

I love an experiment and I enjoy planting with LECA so let’s see how this semi-hydro experiment goes.

If you’re curious about LECA and would like to give it a go, head to my YouTube channel to watch my last video. I’ll show you how I’ve transferred the plant from soil, to water and now to LECA.

And please share with others who may find this useful.

I expect my plants to grow during the growing season but these plants have exceeded my expectations 🌱

Some have doubled in size, some need a bigger pot and others need more support.

If you’re looking for easy, low maintenance, fast growers then head to my YouTube channel to watch my last video here: https://youtu.be/uEoqqEaNgp0?si=tfyPf6Q9TdZ8EqYG

And if you think someone else may find the video useful, please share to help me grow my channel.

Huge thank you to Claire from Silver Hart Photography for capturing these images at last week’s workshop!

It’s so tricky to capture decent images when you’re working alone and when you’re the one responsible for running a fun workshop. I often forget to capture the experience so to have this workshop captured is a real treat.

Thank you Claire!

Make sure to give this local Suffolk based business, Silver Hart Photography a follow.

🌱 NEW Workshop 🌱

Kokedama (or Japanese moss balls) are a great way to learn something new, connect to nature, get your hands dirty and have fun!

Making these remind me of my upbringing in South Africa…hands cover in mud, making mud cakes 🌱

I’ll be hosting a Kokedama workshop at 📍FORNHAM ALL SAINTS EAT|DRINK|GOOD TIMES ✨️ on Saturday 26th September- the last one was a sell out so don’t miss out!

Please share with others who may be interested.

Hope you can join us.
