How many house plants does Hypgraphy grow?
might be neat to see how many plants all of us keep indoors, this does not include in your yard/garden/greenhouses etc. just indoor plants. Michaels "we need a trillion more plants" thread, inspired this.....see how many we got started
how it works is you count your plants, and add it to the number in the post above.
right now indoors i have 287 plants. so the next person takes their total number, adds it to my number and posts the final number, and so on.
see how many plants. also if you kill a bunch or something, make a new post and subtract the ones you lost from the latest posts number
sound fun? maybe im just too bored
to start: 287

Re: How many house plants does Hypgraphy grow?
Not counting the ones I left at my now ex-grilrfriend place and hence my ex-home I am left with 5 plants. Also I do not count the ones I brought in my office at work.
So the total of 2 posts is now (so in average I would have more than 100 plants...how big is your place ganoderma?):
292

Re: How many house plants does Hypgraphy grow?
offices and work are ok as well, the idea is truly indoor plants, but your workspace/areas/homes  lets include decks so long as they are potted plants
not a huge house, but i fill it with many plants. but i love plants. our house has 3 rooms, 1 is a bedroom and one is a propagating room (for plants), which leaves us with one room to live cook and sleep lol....my wife is not the happiest about it, so we are looking to buy a house instead of renting. then i can have more plant rooms
most of my plants are cacti, so i guess they don't help a whole lot as far as air cleaning goes, but they are plants none the less.
i just bought a couple plants for my wife (although she doesn't realize that she actually wants them yet), so
295

Re: How many house plants does Hypgraphy grow?
Wow impressing a whole room out of three only for plants, do you have a couch there as well in order to relax between the plants? That would be really nice!
Counting the ones in the office (one is not mine but it is still here), but not my ex-plants left at my ex-house (actually one of them I really loved!) I get to 2 more (I know, I know, much writing for only two plants), so now we are up to:
297

Re: How many house plants does Hypgraphy grow?
I only have two right now and one is going in the ground once it gets warmer. I need a lot more though as I finally have a place that is perfect for keeping plants indoors.

We just counted 12, not counting soon-to-be-dead cut flowers in vases, but including our tree-sized ficus in the living room....

Re: How many house plants does Hypgraphy grow?
Well, after a fungus infection killed off my one fern, we had to get rid of all the plants in the house. And so my sister thought it was very funny to get me a little plant for my birthday, in a cute little terracotta pot. All awesome. Except for the fact that it's a marijuana plant. Weed, indeed. A Pot-plant, no less. So, "Robert", as we've christened him (after Robert Plant, of course), lives indoors and out, so he gets some sun during the day.
Which was not a good idea at all. Because, see, last July the woman thought that geese are cute. So she got two goslings in varying stages of cuteness. And the goslings did what goslings do best, they grow up at a hell of a rate eating anything in the garden that's either green or has more than four legs. And they like totally crap all over everything. And they eat. God, do they eat. Apparently, three geese eats as much as an adult sheep. But we've only got two. So, if you can picture two-thirds of a sheep grazing in your garden, that's about as much damage as they'd do. Okay - apart from bleeding profusely, two-thirds of a sheep won't do much (but goes great in a curry - provided you have a big enough pot) - but you get the idea. Or think of how a whole sheep will destroy your garden and take a little off, and you'll feel my pain having two geese on the lawn.
So - cutting a long story short, after the geese-blitz, there's not so much green stuff left in my garden. Except, of course, for mister Robert Plant. And I got home the other day, being met at the gate by a very odd-looking goose. His one eye was staring at a spot on the floor, and the other eyeball was trained squarely on the outside tap. His head was doing the whole "walk-like-an-Egyptian" thing, whilst quacking away in beat to the neighbour's dog yapping at his back door. And Robert Plant was now a sad little stump of less than a centimeter sticking out of a very empty pot.
My goose was well and truly cooked.
But in answer to the original post, I sadly have now no plants, indoor or out. 'Cause my goose got the munchies when he was tripping and ate what was left of my lawn.

Re: How many house plants does Hypgraphy grow?
I currently grow 14 plants in my dorm room. All are epiphytic, and most are Epiphyllum.
I seem to get more all the time though, so don't be surprised if I post back often.
