@Ganymede I'm SO jealous of your setup, it's beautiful ;n;

@LuckyBonsaiTree That amaryllis is gorgeous

I've been meaning to post here! One of my hobbies is growing fruit plants that are hard to find in the U.S. I think it's a shame that there are so many fruits we'll never get to try because they don't ship well and other reasons I forget, lol. Unfortunately my hobby only started about five years ago, so none of my plants have reached their fruiting stage. On top of that, I recently moved and couldn't take my largest/most mature plants with me, so I have to start over with those. Right now I'm growing Bolivian mangosteen, which is related to the more known(ish) purple mangosteen, but supposedly this one tastes better! They're very young and boring-looking right now, and they've also been through some heat and cold damage from the move, so they don't look very healthy. But I'll post a picture of my simple setup:



I plan to transfer them to bigger pots with fresh soil soon because they haven't shown any new growth in about four months, and I don't know if this is because of the heat/cold damage or if they're possibly root bound.

And these are some fruits that I'd like to grow in the coming years (images taken from Wikipedia mostly) if I can get my hands on some seeds/cuttings/live plants:



And for the sake of being relevant to Pixpets, here are some progress photos of dragon fruit cacti that I grew from seeds a few years ago!
