Comments (36)Just to clarify, I only placed them in my larger outdoor pots while I was outside. Somehow, they found their own way into my smaller- & medium-sized pots all on their own. Which happened while my plants were outdoors. I didn't even know that they were there until I went to soak my pots. And even then, there were only a few of them. All of which were a fraction of the size of the outdoor earthworms. No bigger than the ones in iamhopscotch's photos. They have been there for at least two years now and not once have they ever negatively affected the health of any of my plants. So I pretty much leave them alone. I don't use them to aerate my already fast-draining soil. And even if they "break down" the soil, "Earthworms leave behind excrement or castings containing from 5 to 11 times the amount of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium they have ingested." All of which the plants can use.I repot my plants long before the soil gets depleted, and the old soil gets tossed out into the remote corners of my yard, along which whatever's inhabiting it. Even if my new, fresh potting soil were to somehow gain newer earthworms, I wouldn't go out of my way to try and rid them from my pots. People want to try and grow their plants in sterile environments, dousing their plants with fungicides and insecticides, and nature doesn't work like that. I'm not advocating putting earthworms in your indoor pots. I was simply stating that I found them in my indoor plants and never once have I encountered any problems from them being there. Sure, I placed them in my large, outdoor pots. But that was because those pots stay outdoors year-round. The smaller earthworms found their own way into my smaller pots, while those pots were outdoors. People claim that they can't survive living in containers, but the small ones in mine seem to do just fine. Even if they were to die, their remains end up breaking down into enriched nutrients that the plants can use....See MoreCan you help me ID my beloved succulent tree?
Comments (6)Thank you so much for the reply! I will look that up! :) I'm embarrassed to say, I've been staring at them for two days and still have no idea if those are flower stalks or what. Ha. I tried looking up the difference to see if I could figure out what was in store for them, but ended up lost in a sea of Google. :)...See MoreMy seed grown Plumeria produced flower!

Comments (8)Hi everyone! Thank you for all the responses! And a special thank you to the_first_kms2. The mother plant was pink pansy! Amazingly, the flower pictured has a very subtle grape aroma. Have any of you grown Plumeria from seed where the resulting plant was identical to its parent? Chao Anh Andre! It's very nice to meet you! I have family in San Diego and go there on occasion for visits. I am in the Fort Worth, TX area. :)...See MoreBlueberryBundtcake - 6a/5b MA
