A Fresh Cut, A Natural Boost, A Bold Beauty Indoors

This Week at PlantmyPlants
Hello, plant people!
This week at PlantmyPlants, we’re diving into the art of defense, design, and drama—plant drama, that is. Whether you’re keeping bugs off your begonias, knotting your way to creative plant displays, or swooning over a sculptural stunner, there’s something fresh waiting for you.
Here’s what to watch for:
Tuesday Tips: Pest Prevention: Keeping Bugs at Bay During Warm Months
The heat is rising—and so are the bug populations. As your plants soak up the summer sunshine, they’re also attracting some less-welcome visitors: gnats, aphids, spider mites, and more. But don’t worry—we’ve got your back (and your leaves). This week, we’re diving into natural pest prevention strategies that actually work. From zesty citrus sprays that deter ants and aphids, to garlic oil blends that send mites packing, you’ll learn how to build a bug barrier using ingredients you already have in your kitchen. We’ll show you when to spray, where to look, and how to stay one step ahead—without relying on harsh chemicals. Because keeping your plants healthy shouldn’t mean compromising your air quality or peace of mind. Let your garden grow wild—not infested. | ![]() |
Wednesday Works: Crafting Macramé Plant Hangers
![]() | Take your greenery to new heights—literally. Whether you're working with a sunny nook that needs a little drama or a shady corner begging for attention, these DIY hangers add height, texture, and handmade charm to any space. All you need is some cord, a little patience, and your favorite leafy friend. We’ll walk you through the basic knots, design ideas, and pro tips to customize your creation. It’s the perfect weekend project—and when you’re done, you’ll have a floating mini-jungle that looks like it came straight out of a design magazine. Why buy mass-produced when you can make it plantsonal? |
Feature Friday: The Unique Appeal of Whale Fin Sansevieria
It’s bold. It’s sculptural. It demands attention from across the room. With a single, oversized leaf shaped like a whale’s dorsal fin, this Sansevieria isn’t just another green friend—it’s a statement. Minimalist. Modern. Practically indestructible. It thrives on neglect and still looks like it belongs in a museum. This Friday, we’re diving deep into what makes the Whale Fin so unique. You’ll get care tips, styling inspiration, and ideas on how to let this slow-growing beauty steal the spotlight in any space. If your plant shelf needs a little edge—or your room needs a quiet dose of drama—this is your new favorite. Because some plants whisper… | ![]() |

This Week in the Garden:
Ready to level up your plant game? We’re mixing practical care with a little creativity—and a whole lot of personality. Here’s what’s growing on:
Bug Blockers: Noticing tiny invaders on your leaves? It’s prime time for pest patrol. Try a citrus peel spray or garlic oil blend—your plants will thank you, and your kitchen already has the tools.
Knot Your Average Decor: Got string? You’ve got style. Macramé plant hangers aren’t just space-savers—they’re art projects with a purpose. Give your green pals a lift (literally) this week.
Plant Mood of the Week: Feeling strong, sculptural, and too cool to wilt? You’re channeling Whale Fin Sansevieria vibes—quiet confidence, bold form, and zero tolerance for drama (or overwatering).
