Golden Pothos Update

Hello gardeners and plant lovers, for today I would like to share an update on the golden pothos plant that is in my living room. I bought this plant about 2 months ago. I really love pothos' plants and I am always excited when this plant makes any kind of progress. Here is a photo of the golden pothos or epipremnum aureum plant today:
It is doing absolutely fantastic! This plant loves the daily afternoon sunlight through the west facing window. I did notice that there is new growth at the tips that are starting to slowing drape over the edge of the pot. This is a sign that the plant is going to start trailing with vines. This is the best quality of the golden pothos that I love! I water this plant once a week since some days, the indoor temperatures increases more than usual. Well that is all for this afternoon. I will keep you all posted when more happens with this plant's growth. Have a great weekend!

Herb Seedlings

Hello everyone, we are now 2 weeks into the month of May and the weather is really warming up. For today, I would like to share my herb seedlings that I started on April 15, 2015. I bought an herb seedling kit that I had found on sale since some pieces were missing. I planted the seeds of two different herbs: chives and basil. After about a week, the seeds germinated for both herbs and they gradually grew larger over time:
In the photo above, in the terra cotta pot to the left is the chives and to the right is the basil. This photo was taken around Earth Day (April 22) and here is another update of the seedlings today:
The chives is getting taller by the days! I'm loving the progress of these seedlings. Here's how the basil is doing today:
This one is my particular favorite out of these two. These seedlings are showing excellent progress as they are growing taller and the leaves are gradually growing larger. This is my first time germinating herb seeds and I am satisfied with this experience for sure! Hopefully I can add a few more herbs to the windowsill like rosemary. I also would like to add a lemon verbena plant which is my dream plant to acquire at this time. Well that is all for today. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to leave them below. Thank you all for supporting and reading this blog. I truly appreciate it!
