Hacking plant

DIRTY LEAVES
This morning I observed my home plant and I noticed that it had dirty leaves, so I proceeded to clean them.

BULB ON
At a certain point of time a bulb has turned on in my mind. Some days ago I chatted with my best friend who said me her passion about plants and flowers. She talked about the possibility to recognize a plant by using an app "Plantnet". She found a type of rose in her brother's garden and she was so enthusiastic for taking care of those flowers. Going on along this way I took a picture of my plant thinking about the possibility to know something important to grow up it and something new like various curiosities.

This is my plant: it's shy exactly like me.

A PRESENT FOR CHRISTMAS
It was a present for Christmas as you can notice that it has a gift wrap and bow. So, my friend asked me if the plant had a closed pot or it was open to permit the water to flow.
The gift wrap and the water a the base of the pot.

I proceeded to take the wrap away and to put it in a perfect IKEA pot.

THE RESULT
I have a plant in a perfect status and in a perfect environment: ~20°C-23°C, no direct sunlight, but air flowing from the morning to afternoon then I'll proceed to enter it house.

Another friend in a perfect form.

THE SEARCH
My friend suggested me to search the plant through the app Plantnet: a good app to obtain further information on plants, flowers, etc.

Information found through the app Plantnet
  • Name is Dracaena trifasciata
