Pleasure Little Treasure. Walked into my greenhouse the other day and was greeted by this unusual beauty... my Nepenthes ampullaria x spectabilis x talangensis ‘Tropical Pitcher Plant’ was presenting its cool compact insect eating pitchers for the first time. Such curious characters. Love them! Something mysterious is growing on in the background. Can’t quite make out what it is...but coming soon...Any guesses what it could be Plant Lovers? #plantprovocateur #nepenthes #tropical #pitcherplant #plantlover #mystery #plant #depechemode #greenhouse #unusual #beauty #rareplants #collectorplants #planthunter #plantshop #hardtofind #treasures #silverlake #losangeles #variegated “What were the skies like when you were growing up?...The sunsets were purple, and red, and yellow, and on fire” Was walking my pups the other day, looked up suddenly through this Prunus cerasifera ‘Purple Leaf Plum’ tree’s leafy branches. They were on fire. A nice moment on earth. Gave me life. #plantprovocateur #theorb #littlefluffyclouds #purpleleafplum #prunus #streettrees #localflora #foliage #sky #breathtaking #peaceful #beauty #lookaroundyou #ambience #lifegiving #trees #environment #texture #pattern #color #silverlake #losangeles #dogwalk #outside #jonimitchell “Bathed in lightness, bathed in heat” as this beautiful noise radiates yet doesn’t repeat. The beauty of this Peony caught my eye. Overblown in bloom. The petals looking like slashed ribbons of satin, the center of its universe blushed with lemon color punctuated by pulses of pink. The fragrance...light citrus with notes of delicate rose. A truly beautiful gift from nature. #plantprovocateur #peony #suspirium #flowers #fragrance #spring #beauty #delicate #satin #lemon #pink #beautifulnoise #floral #appreciation #blissful #scent #plantlover #flowerlovers #plantshop #aesthetic #silverlake #losangeles #bloom Sunday Feels.

Nipple By Nature. Came across this fascinating inedible fruit the other day. Solanum mammosum ‘Nipplefruit’. Common names: Pig’s Head, Cow’s Udder, or my favorite, Apple of Sodom. We humans make interesting associations?! It’s in the Nightshade family. They remind me of Orange amoebas. As a cut Botanical, I think it’s pretty cool. I want to grow it! Definitely provocative.

You ever think about where plants come from? Their origins? It’s sometimes surprising to find out how close or far they’ve travelled to bring amazingness to your life. I just happened to come across some wonderfully strange Cacti and Succulents the other day. Found them in an unmarked jumble of assorted succulents up for the offering. Some I knew, some i didn’t. I’ve identified them for you and where they’ve come from. Well, these little marvels have shown up at TPP and want a Plant Collector to take them home and love ‘em! Check them out! Swipe R to L to view. You want to see something really cool? Google or Pinterest search them in bloom. Some make big pink or white cactus flowers, others alien-like daisies. Some look like concrete, others have thorns of paper. Truly unique and amazing. They could be yours. This special selection are all under $10 bucks each. Currently available. #plantprovocateur #plants #cacti #succulents #strange #beautiful #flowers #plantlover #plantcollector #origins #africa #argentina #naturesbeauty #unique #odd #special #plantappreciation #plantshop #silverlake #losangeles
