So I've been wanting to try this method and was reinspired by @thesurvivalgardener - where you upcycle a section of the main stem from banana or plantain plants by cutting a hole and transplanting a start or if you can, find a volunteer 🌱 _ If you're big into gardening, I highly recommend a Hori Hori (the knife looking tool behind the tomato plant in the first picture). Its a Japanese trowel or digging tool. I most enjoy that it has so many other uses with a blade on one side, serrated teeth on the other, and a measuring guide. I won't mention brands or prices, but excellent craftsman are making beautiful tools out there #gardentoolgoals _ #experiments #upcycle #playwithdirt #playwithplants #volunteerplants #touchsomethinggreen #inthegarden #sideyardgardens #smallgardens #gardening #permaculture #permies #beeks #nerdz #JonLajoie #gardentools #horihori #optoutside https://www.instagram.com/p/B-k-6KNgiKU/?igshid=1aup6v6ygpuxy

Saving some Tillandsia utriculata aka giant air plant after a storm last weekend. I attached a few to a Live oak, gumbo limbo and left the large one on the ground. These lovelies are natives and in the Bromeliaceae family, they can be epiphytic, areophytic or even partially terrestrial. _ Lucy Larcom, Plant a Tree “A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.” _ #makeamericagreenagain #savetheplants #plantsomethinggreen #playwithplants #itsajeepthing #jeepers #optoutside #findyourway #tillandsiautriculata #giantairplant #airplants #bromeliaceae #epiphyte #floridanative #lucylarcom #plantatree https://www.instagram.com/p/BzgXhFkAQC5/?igshid=b9hh5icrix9f
