Graphite and watercolor on location for Sketchcrawl at the Planting Fields Arboretum in Oyster Bay, Long Island. Frigid temperatures and high snowfalls brought my friend Joan and I indoors for a warm tropical spot in a greenhouse filled with lush plantings.

Pot Plants #2
by Eliza Cheng
An art piece from the series “Homescapes” – a collection of some spontaneous and blissful art I created when during Christmas/New Year holiday I had the luxury of time to do a bit of sketching, a little indulgence with paints … It depicts “home is where the heart is”.
Art: 8″x8″, 16″x16″ framed

Got this plant back in April. The plant was fully mature and had lots of flowers. It hung in the patio, it received care and we enjoyed its beauty, but it eventually died, got cut where only stumps were left, and the pot was put under a tree, where it dried out completely. That was it, I thought.
I didn't expect for the plant to come back; thought it was dead, so no water or anything was given. It was forgotten until I saw new shoots and leaves, so it came back to the patio, and my mom has been giving it bokashi. This is September now and it's really vibrant. I know perennials come back every year, but this is twice in one year.
Plant-pot Dapperling or Leucocoprinus birnbaumii is an attractive but slightly poisonous mushroom which should be admired but not eaten. It often sprouts in potted plants that are grown in greenhouses.
My mosaiced pots holding plants on the stairs. I made the pots several years ago, plus the kick plate on the stairs.
Aloe bulbilifera var paulianae is a solitary stemless rosette forming plant with 2 foot long bright green flattened and ascending lanceolate leaves that have evenly toothed margins of the same color that look like they were cut with pinking shears. In winter appear the 5 to 7 foot long wand-like arching inflorescences that branch near the ends bearing open racemes of yellow tipped orange flowers and having small plantlets (bulbils) at the base of each inflorescence branch. This variety paulianae differs only from the species by having bulbils arising only on the main flower peduncle and not the side branches. This plant inhabits the dense rain forests of the Analamaitso Forest and moutainous Sambirano region from 1,000 to 2,600 feet of elevation in the Mahajanga Province in northwestern Madagascar. The specific epithet is from the Latin words ‘bulbilla’ meaning “small bulb” and ‘-fer’ maning to bear in reference to the bulbils that develop. The varietal name honors Liane Paulian, wife of Dr. Renaud Paulian, the deputy director of the Institut Scientifique de Madagascar, who first collected this plant.
