I am moving to Colorado from Northern Virginia. Is it possible to move a large houseplant? How? This fiddle leaf fig (his name is Figaro, actually) doesn’t have a strong center trunk (more)

The new climate may not work for this beauty. I recommend gifting it. You can still see pictures!

Wow wow wow.
Good job! You’re such a good plant parent!
I live in NOVA if you do want to find a new home for any plants. But I totally understand keeping your fig. You guys must be so close 😀

funny

Yes, we are close. We won’t go until early summer but I’ll keep your offer in mind. There may be others that need to be adopted. 😀

I would go to a nursery and get tree stakes. Tie up the trunk and put the pot in a plastic garbage bag to prevent soil from spilling everywhere.

Did you end up moving it with you?

Want to improve my verbal and written communication skills. I hear reading more would help but I don’t read as much as I used to. So I’m wondering what books would help with that? Should I just read books that tickle my fancy like suspense and true crime novels? Help! Welcome to all book recommendations.
