A Science Major's Passion for Growing Plants

Complete Guide to Growing Plants

The plant-growing expert we're introducing today is a biology student. During his four years at university, he turned his dorm into a small garden, with Chinese roses, peace lilies, pennywort and so much more. Let's take a look!

When he first started university, he had no spare money, so all his plants came from various places around campus.

(A hydrangea branch cut from the roadside on campus)

He cut a Chinese rose branch from a flowerbed and it rooted from a cutting; he dug up a few oxalis plants and planted them next to the Chinese rose; he cut a wisteria branch and it also took; he even "stole" a spider plant runner from the lab!

Later, the oxalis grew alongside the Chinese rose and turned into this:

The hen-and-chickens he picked up on Taobao for one yuan also produced little offsets:

One thing that Huahua thinks all plant lovers will agree on: once you fall in love with growing plants, you simply can't stop!

So this young man extended his "reach" into the dorm room itself: he kept a pot of peace lily on his desk, water-propagated a inch plant, made a micro-landscape in a glass bottle, and also grew a pot of mint.

Do plants favor those who adore them beyond measure!? Why are all his plants so healthy! While you can't keep anything alive no matter what you do?

As he continued his studies, this 1.9 m tall young man got a part-time job and could finally buy his own plants. And then there was no stopping him:

(Asiatic dayflower, Chinese rose, goldfish plant)

(Pennywort)

(Pansy)

(Wax begonia)

(Chinese rose)

(Carnation)

(Sweet flag)

He said he dreamed of a cactus one night, and the next day when he visited the flower market he bought it. Could it be that which plants you grow also depends on fate?

Growing plants actually knows no age. You can't say that anyone who loves growing plants must be elderly. Growing plants represents a calm state of mind. So, some plant lovers, if you can't keep plants alive, reflect on whether you're just too impatient?

Don't think this young man is neglecting his studies. He actually lives a more leisurely and refined life than you'd imagine, like he's cultivating immortality!

"I put a lounge chair on my balcony. Last year I kept a tank of fish and aquatic plants on my desk, and next to it I also kept a red-eared slider and a Chinese pond turtle."

Huahua thought back to her own school days. Although she did grow a few pots of plants, she just left them there and ignored them. How could she ever have grown them like this?

And there's more! Some plant lovers! Your kids might just be plant-growing experts. What on earth are your children doing out there?

Plant lovers, you can share your plant-growing experiences with Huahua.

Maybe next time it'll be your story!
