Tuinidee 2019

Tuinidee is het grootste tuinevenement in Nederland. Met de editie van dit jaar, 21-24 februari, werd mij gevraagd om deel te nemen aan hun ‘bloggers home’, een plek waar bezoekers kunnen chatten met enthousiaste planten-/ tuinbloggers en Instagrammers. In de kas waren vlaggen met alle meewerkende instagrammers. Mij inbegrepen! (close-up hieronder) Zo raar om mijn foto daar te zien hangen 🙂 Ik had een leuke dag en heb leuke mensen ontmoet!

3 vlaggetjes: ik in het midden!

Aroids: so diverse!
zaagcactus, ric-rac cactus, epiphyllum anguliger

What does it mean if you receive a cactus as a gift? It's probably your birthday or a houswarming gift. After all, a stylish cactus is a hip accessory in a modern living room. However, it was not a suitable gift in the past: it was said that if you gifted someone a cactus, you would secretly experience the recipient as 'prickly' and unpleasant. Or maybe you underestimate the recipient's green thumb? Since a cactus just stand there, on your windowsill, whatever you do or don't do for it. But is that really the case? Let's take a closer look at these spiky statues.
Euphorbia, pointsettia
By Marieke 16 Mar, 2022
Euphorbia is a genus with many diverse species. From native Marsh Spurge to Madeiran trees and bulbous succulents. Our poinsettia also belongs to this genus!

In the 17th century, something remarkable happens: botanist Rumphius places a plant between the animal kingdom and the plant kingdom. Why? Because it moved when touched. At the time, such sensitivity was only ascribed to organisms in the animal kingdom. But this was a plant!

Caudex plants are extremely popular these days. But the concept of caudex plant is not so clear. What exactly is it and how do you take care of them?

Confession: until recently, no orchid was allowed in my house anymore… Years ago I had 2 Butterfly orchids and planned to take better care of them, hoping to get more flowers. I did everything to make them feel good! Until one day in the summer I didn't pay attention and the poor plants burned to death on my south-facing roof terrace… Together with my good intentions I threw the plants away. No more orchids for me!
desmodium-gyrans telegraafplant dancing-plant
By Marieke 06 Nov, 2021
I wrote about a fast-moving plant before, in my article on carnivorous plants : the Venus Flytrap. The dancing plant is also a fast-moving plant, albeit not as fast as the flytrap. Yet it can be seen with the naked eye! I sowed some of these plants and made some timelapses, see the video below.

A succulent plant with partly transparent leaves! I got it from Rogier after our first meeting, about two years ago. This little Haworthia cooperi was a 'pup', a little one that had started growing on the mother plant. This mother plant was collected by an acquaintance of Rogier (with permission) in the Bolo Nature Reserve in South Africa. My love for weirdos in the plant world immediately bubbled up. And there is much more to discover about succulents!
