One pot · one care history
Containers & their plants.
Explore what grows together, the recorded pot setup, and the history shared by its botanical profiles.
34 tracked containers · 4 shared planters · 42 active botanical profiles
Each P-ID follows one container through watering, weighing, and repotting. Open a shared planter to meet its plants and see how they are cared for together.

Understanding shared planters and their care records
Last updated: 2026-09-24
The collection has 34 tracked containers, including four shared planters. Its 44 current profile pages comprise 42 botanical profile groups and two whole-planter overviews. One additional historical profile is kept for the removed silken pincushion. A profile may cover a clump or several heads of the same kind of plant.
Use the container directory to see what shares a pot, then open a member's profile for identification and botanical care. Container pages bring the members, shared care notes, setup context, and links to the existing observation history together.
Which identifier means what?
| Identifier | What it identifies | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Inventory ID | One botanical profile or aggregate overview | Succulent-15A is probable Lithops lesliei; Succulent-15 is the shared overview |
| Container / tracker P-ID | The permanent tracked planting and its observation history | P35 includes both probable Lithops species |
| Physical label | The short label on that container | #9 is P35; an A/B profile suffix does not create another pot label |
| Pot setup | A configuration within that container's history | P35 moved to setup 2 at its September 23 repot |
A P-ID stays with the planting when it is repotted. Each setup records the pot and growing mix used at that stage, so its history can be followed across changes in containers.
The four shared containers
| Container | Current botanical members | Overview |
|---|---|---|
| P19 / #1 — shared rehab cacti | Variegated blue torch, monkey tail, and golden torch | Three member profiles; the removed silken pincushion is historical and is not a current member |
| P20 / #2 — shared succulents | Pulido's echeveria, elephant bush, silver teaspoons, and copper spoons | Four member profiles; one shared root volume |
| P30 / #6 — tiny mixed succulent planter | Pale rosette echeveria, coppertone-type sedum, and paddle kalanchoe | Three probable botanical groups plus the whole-planter overview; the seller's five-plant description does not establish five verified identities |
| P35 / #9 — Lithops shared planter | Probable Lithops lesliei, tan/brown, and probable Lithops salicola, grey/green | Two probable species groups plus the whole-planter overview; four visible heads from two nursery pots, with root connections unverified |
Member profiles explain each plant's identification and care. The two overview pages describe their combined plantings. The other 30 containers each have one current botanical profile.
Record care once, describe members separately
Weigh the complete assembly consistently and record the reading once for its P-ID. Watering or feeding the shared root volume is likewise one container action. Each member's profile links to that shared history.
Use the observation notes to identify a particular member: for example, “P35: tan/brown probable lesliei heads firm; grey/green probable salicola heads beginning replacement.” This keeps each plant's condition easy to follow. Inspect every member before deciding to water the common root volume. Sharing soil does not guarantee that Lithops heads synchronize their cycles.
When recording size, say which plant or head was measured. P35's September 23 1 in × 1.25 in measurement, for example, describes one Lithops head. See the watering quick guide for practical decisions and the logger action guide for recording real events.
For a shared planter, open its container page first: compare the members' care notes, check the shared setup, then follow the history link for recent weights and watering. Use the individual profiles when identifying a head, comparing new growth, or deciding whether one member is being shaded.
Spreadsheet reference views
Two spreadsheet views make the collection easier to browse:
- Containers — 34 data rows: one row per P-ID, with its label, members,
shared care notes, setup context, and page links. Current setup, pot details,
medium, last watering, and weight fields reference the existing
Plant tracker. - Container members — 42 data rows: one row per current botanical profile group, linked to its container, profile, and workbook page. The two aggregate overviews and the removed historical profile are excluded from member counts.
Use Log Care to record observations. These spreadsheet views bring the existing plant and container records together for reference.
