TwistedPistils' Everything Houseplant!
Hi everybody!
I decided to start my own thread highlighting my houseplant collection!  Been loving all things green (or red, yellow, white, purple, silver and beyond!!) for most of my life, especially container house plants. My collection is not small... ooooohh noooooo....  Plus I am not sure of how many houseplants I have but they are EVERYWHERE! Most of my collection I have either started from seeds, collected cuttings and offsets, rescued, or just flat out stalked for years until fate put the plant into my hands.Pics to come... der der der, should have uploaded first.

7+ year old Lacy Leaf Philodendron in the foreground. It finally has a short trunk, I'll get pics of that soon. This plant was a middle of Winter trash day score.
On top is a Night Blooming Cirrus, about 5 years old now. It is a piece off a giant established plant in an old neighborhood in South Florida. I am gonna try and get it to bloom for me this June. |

HUGE ficus elastica AKA Rubber Tree! This was a rescue from a business that no longer could care for it.
8+ year old Bird Of Paradise in the back touching the ceiling. To the left is my prized possesion. A 20+ year old Jade Tree in a vintage 70s ceramic pot. |

This is my baby. I loved this plant for years before she was finally put out into the trash on a snowy day for me to rescue. She was neglected for years in the window of a business building that was for sale. I tried and tried to get the story on the plant, but kept hitting dead ends. Finally the building was sold and when it was being renovated this beauty was tossed out into the icy cold. THANK GOD I was in the right place at the right time!! Fate brought her to me, leaves scarred from her night out in the snow and rootbound in less than 2 gallons of depleted soil. That was years ago, and those scarred leaves are pretty much all gone, replaced by healthy new leaves. Simply magnificent specimen. It is getting a nice shaping this Summer.
