This is wildly impressive to me. I manage to kill succulents so I can’t be trusted but IF I COULD. I would do this. -
@Floof don’t resist the fish

We bought our house about three years ago and when we’re not randomly needing to fix whatever ridic thing broke next, I try to plant something that’ll come back again next year. Here’s some of my dudes that are one year two or three, starting to really fill in.
Hopefully link works, thank you, link! Forgive the mess, whole patio is still kind of full of leaves due to having some gross weekends.
those are some good photos
The flowers are pretty, too!my phone is for some reason stuck in a focus on close things mode so all my close up pictures really crisp…
…which is nice. lol

Omg I have SUCH yard envy! Those are gorgeous and I wish I could get stuff that pretty to live more than a month here, but FL.
My mother in NJ has tiger lilies that come back every year without much fussing. They bloom early-ish in spring, like March, and have been springing up every year since I was a kid, so I suspect they are low-maintenance perennials.

@Floof Plants make fish super easy to keep!
-
@Snackness I’ve done the fish thing! I had koi angelfish shipped to me. I bought guppies off of aquabid. I tried raising bettas. I knew way too much about plecos. I’m good.
Okay, maybe when I’m not renting again…
-
@Floof we all think we’ve broken the fish habit and then…

Yay plants! I also don’t have a yard… But I have a bunch of house plants. I’ve got 27 plants so far.
No bonsai or pretty purple flowers. I’m jealous.
-
This is my big orchid. It blooms every 3 - 6 months and makes me look like I know what I’m doing (I do not).
-
@Snackness what is the flowering plant in the white pot next to it called? I have one (that someone gave me) and have no idea of its name.
Also, your orchid is beautiful~! How do you not have a cat gnawing on it??
-
@KarmaBum It’s a type of kalanchoe, I got it from IKEA.
And my cat is old and dgaf (and the plants are up high).
-
@Snackness TY. I’m pretty sure I’ve asked you before.
Mine is very ugly. Yours looks great. \o/
p.s. you can totally put an umbrella bonsai in that window

Here are some pretendy-fun-time flowers for MUSHers in honor of National Garden Week.

@KarmaBum I love that bonsai tree in particular because of the RIDICULOUSNESS that is FILLING A TREE WITH PINK FROGS.
(no shade, @hellfrog)
I just. Love it. It’s so good. So creative. When I first saw that kit I immediately went into a google search deepdive on the history of lego frogs – which is apparently a THING.
-
@Tez I want to cast these in silver.
-
MUSH break. Been doing this instead.
I (crack myself up and) call this one a cemeterrarium.
-
@KarmaBum How cool! How long did it take you to do that?
-
@Pyrephox Putting it all together only took a few hours, including wiring the light. Time was spent prowling for that log (finally! reptile section of pet store!! who knew!) and painting tiny tombstones (DnD miniatures) and sourcing lichen (internet).

When the world goes up, I like to imagine what weird shit will manage to live in the wreckage we leave behind.
Like mimics.
