Got this plant as a housewarming gift last year and it’s blooming for the first time!

Alternately, they leave them there until they die and replant them. That just occurred to me and it's the sort of wasteful thing the entertainment industry does.

TBH I had the same thought; there are entire companies that will just rotate the plants out for businesses.

btw, I think I recognize you from reddit! :)

Probably. I was a power user there. No more though. Sorry, I wish I remembered you.

Yeah, I'm leaving a lot behind too. It's fine; platforms come and go. Once a couple of communities I follow over there have active Lemmy equivalents I won't be back much at all.

Create them here, add content, soon you will get help.

Yep, already created one of them with no intention of retaining ownership over the long term. If it gets busy I'm turning it over to someone else. 😂
