Cactus’ spines serve multiple important functions: they protect the cactus from herbivores, provide shade to reduce water loss by lowering surface temperature, and help trap moisture from the air.

Unlike typical leaves, cactus spines do not perform photosynthesis; instead, the green stem of the cactus takes over that role. The shape, size, and density of spines vary widely among cactus species.

When a Philodendron Birkin sprouts a white leaf, it’s usually due to a higher level of variegation, meaning the leaf has less chlorophyll (the green pigment) and more white areas.

Since chlorophyll is essential for photosynthesis, leaves with a lot of white may be more delicate and slower to mature. Sometimes, these white or mostly white leaves can be more susceptible to sunburn or damage, so it’s important to provide bright but indirect light and avoid direct sunlight.

White leaves on a Birkin are a normal part of its variegated growth pattern and add to the plant’s unique appearance.

Pothos (Epipremnum aureum) is one of the easiest houseplants to propagate, mainly through stem cuttings.

For successful propagation, cut a healthy vine just below a node (where roots and leaves emerge), ensuring the cutting has at least 3-4 leaves. These cuttings can root quickly in water or directly in soil / other growing mediums, typically developing roots within 1-2 weeks.

Did you know that monstera deliciosa, also known as the Swiss Cheese Plant, can live for several decades—often 20 to 30 years or more—when grown under optimal conditions?

In its natural tropical habitat, it can grow into a large, mature vine or tree over many years, sometimes reaching heights of up to 70 feet. As a houseplant, its growth is slower, but with proper care, it can remain healthy and continue producing its iconic split leaves for many years.
