Well? How many? 2? 10? 100?

OOOOH a good one! Let's see. right now, (it is still warm here, so all are not in yet) I have 4 in my bathroom, and 4 around my kitchen sink, with 2 bottles being used for rooting. In the office I have 6. To be brought in I have about 10. That makes 20 something.

So should we count pots, OR the number of plants IN the pots?

Okay, I have at least 10 in the basement rec room and bathroom, and I have 5 on my bakers rack in front of the dining room window, I have 3 on a plant rack in the living room, and 4 more in the living room....hmmm, about 22...LOL Oh, I forget my venus fly trap in the kitchen window, make that 23....

Enough to fill up a 12 x 16 greenhouse if we had one!!!!

as of today................46,but not all are in just some& is less than last year.last year i had 73 houseplants visit for the winter.so am actually doing better than last year....but they always seem to increase durring the winter so can easily change by feb

Should I include individual plants from 3 terrariums?

OH I didn't count individual plants, only the pots... In the office I have a spath, schefflera, anthurium, pothos, cast iron plant, and draceana. all in their own pots. Oh, and I forgot the prayer plant on my adding machine! and the list goes much like that at home, only one of my pots (in the kitchen) has a peace lily, arrow head philodendron, 2 kinds of wandering jew, and prayer plant, all mixed up. Another pot has cuttings from Gramma's angel wing begonia, wandering jew, and something I haven't identified. There are three other pots like that in the kitchen. The bathroom only has four - each in their own pots - my lucky bamboo, an unknown begonia, a heart leaf philodendron, and the philodendron hybrid I bought for 48 cents. That one is gorgeous!! Then there is the outside sets... we won't go there right now!

i did'nt really count them, i have an 8ft rubber plant that i just can't find a place for. most of my babies live out side all summer. i am still trying to find a place to put them all for the winter.

No fair, I only have two now. Alot of my plants had to be given away because of the danger to the kids in the house, and the ones that I kept ended up getting knocked over and destroyed by them. Next year I will have the house full again, I plan on making another career change.

i did'nt have too many when my kids were small, kids do like to knock them over dig in them and eat them. it is hard to remember which are poison. good to be on the safe side.

I have 5 kitty kids that do the same thing Iowa and Tamara.

....or smartest J/K

I don't have many. I have a palm tree type thing, ivy, philodandrum (sp? <img border="0" alt="[perplexed]" title="" src="graemlins/confused.gif" /> ) and 3 plumeria trees. I don't really have the right spots for them. Hardwood in the dining room where most of them are and off-white carpet in the rest of the house which means off-limits to the dirt associated with houseplants!!!

My cat regularly dines on any spider plant she can find...I put them all up and even hung one in front of a window...only to find her standing on her back legs eating one of it's babies!

She needs some type of treatment program! :rolleyes:

At least she leaves all the others alone. <img border="0" alt="[clappy]" title="" src="graemlins/clappy.gif" />

I have a couple of pathos of varying sizes, a plumeria, a little palm, some shamrocks, some ivy, a ficus, some more ivy, a papya, a couple of lucky bamboo, and my newest baby, a Christmas cactus that's already blooming. stays away from most of them. She killed my bonsai tree and started to eat a little sago palm, killed it off too. But so far she doesn't seem all that interested in the rest of them.

The shamrock plant sound so neat. I have never seen one around here. Has your plumeria bloomed for you yet? I've had 1 of mine for 1 1/2 year and the other 2 since May of 03. Lots of leaves but no flowers! Hopefully next spring. I'm not going to let it go dormant (keeping it in south window next to a heat vent) so I hope it keeps growing over the winter.

The shamrock is a pretty neat plant, really easy to keep happy. I have it in my bay window in the kitchen so it gets afternoon sun and blooms away. I bought a couple of years ago at the grocery store around St. Patrick's day.

I am such a dork though, I don't have a plumeria I have a money tree, which is a pachiu or something like that. When I saw the word plumeria in your post I got totally confused since I can never remember the right name but I know it starts with a "p". Sorry about that. I would like to have a plumeria though, they are truly beautiful plants. One of my favorite flowers to paint. Are they easy to take care of?

Currently, I have 60 pots (some with more than one plant) in the house. I have about 40 more outside that will have to come in when it gets colder. I also have between 40 and 50 plants that belong to clients that will be coming here for their "winter vacation" (the plants, not the clients )

Now do y'all understand why I built the greenhouse???

Hmmm...houseplants...let's see. There's the golden pothos, marble queen pothos, purple wandering jew, strawberry begonia, green and variegated spider plants, 3 baby ficus trees, an African violet, 5 varieties of coleus, parlor palms, a desert rose, a crown of thorns, and 2 dracaenas (dragontree and the Warnecki), and a lucky bamboo.
These go out during the warm weather, but I have to bring them in before long. On top of all these, I have to find a place to put my outdoor potted plants in the event of a freeze!

I forgot 3 of my plants in my count(2 pink polka dots, and an aloe vera plant), and I just bought a Christmas Cactus yesterday....so that brings me up to 27.....LOL. I love them all....just cleaned off all the leaves yesterday...they get kind of dusty after a while....

I have about 75 plants plus the cutting and things on the go! :rolleyes:
I really need a green house, things get a little out of control in the spring when I start seedings! I running out of surfaces!
My poor husband, he is so understanding!
