The Garden Club met on August 2, 2018 at 10:45 am at the Wedgefield Clubhouse. The Garden Club members often share plants from cuttings and/or seeds and share with other members. We shared a variety of plants such as coleus,Basil Masil, ginger, rosemary, and some Plumeria’s. Rosemary Curtis brought her Snake plant or Mother-in-law tongue plant to show us a bloom. It is highly unusual for these plants to bloom!
Here are steps to make your Snake plant bloom in no time at all!
After cooler months of winter, move it outdoors to a partly sunny location. (15 seconds).
Feed it twice during the summer with Miracle-Gro. (30 Seconds).
Do NOT water it! However, if it is outside make sure your pot has drainage. (0 seconds).
Ignore it! The next time you notice it will probably be when it sends up a spike of creamy- white, tubular flowers.
Take you plant back inside when cool weather is in site (15 seconds).
The flowers of these beautiful plants are used in making traditional Hawaiian leis. They are highly fragrant and bloom freely from spring throughout fall in multiple colors like white, yellow, pink, and red.
