Xerosicyos perrieri Houseplant Care — 131 of 365

Описание

Growing up in Northeastern Pennsylvania, I never had seen succulent climbing plants like Xerosicyos perrieri, #121 of "365 Days of Plants", which is why they feel like such a plant novelty. However, I did once grow a wild cucumber in my home, (which resulted in a funny experience, which is a story we'll save for another time), but that wild cucumber is a cousin to Xerosicyos, as it's also in the Cucurbitaceae family.

The planter this one by Rebecca Heasman Ceramics (https://www.rebeccaheasman.com/).

I'll be touching upon where this plant is native to, how it grows, where I'm growing mine in my home, and other basic care tips.

You can check out more of these videos here and on my IGTV @homesteadbrooklyn.
