(Pics 1-5 are of the difference plants in this pot right now. Pics 6-8 are of my magic aloe plant that continues to grow despite have almost no roots)
So after accidently knocking over some pots, I was left with quite a few plants that no longer have nursery pot. I combined them together, now I'm wondering if the plants will be okay like this, because to be honest, they all look very pretty like this.
Today I went out and purchased a self watering planter for my 4 orchids (3 larger older orchids and one small one with our any spike) as I'm preparing to have knee surgery and felt I am may be able to water them properly while recovering for a while. So I plated them in the self watering planter, then tired around and promptly break a price of my plant shelf. So I had a brand new addition to my collection, my alocosia wentii? Or odora not quite sure on this one yet that I figured may do okay growing in the orchids pot for a few weeks. I use a 50% mix of sphagnum moss soaked in fertilizer water, 25% potting soil with compost in it, and 25% orchid bark for soil. So I tossed it in there, and then decided to toss my medical aloe in to the magic pot as well. I'm also thinking about putting my English ivy in to the pit as well.
My question is, has anyone ever done something like this before? If it's okay for the plants to be mix up like this I can work on getting more pots, but since doing so the 2 newest orchids that were on clearance started perking up and begining to look alot better? Should I keep them like this?
