Repotted the fern and now have eight plants instead of one. I might need a bigger house.
Cute! They look like dollhouse miniatures!
I sort of figured the hive would replace its old queen when the time came. Hate to kill her after she produced such a great colony, and I would...
Sounds like a neat gift to make up and give to friends and family!
Got an early start on repotting. Everything is growing out of its original homes, and I had a few new plants that just arrived and needed a home....
