🌸 How to Grow a Big, Swollen Caudex
Each time you repot, raise the plant slightly to expose more of the upper roots. This encourages new root growth downward and helps form a thicker, more dramatic caudex.

• · Use a well-draining mix
• · Water only when dry - Adeniums love dry conditions
• · Feed with Sunshine Megaflor Booster that supports both caudex and blooms
• · Grow best in filtered bright light

👍 A simple trick with big results!

🏺 How to Grow Your Own Cinnamon Tree – Spice and Health Right by the Kitchen

• 🌿 The Cinnamon tree (Cinnamomum aromaticum or zeylanicum), is an easy, fast-growing tropical plant that thrives in pots, making it perfect for patios, balconies, or even sunny indoor spaces.
• 🌿 It naturally grows compact and bushy, so it's great for container gardeners - even those outside the tropics.
• 🌿 You don't need to wait years for fruit - because cinnamon is the bark and the leaves!
• 🌿 Once your tree is established, you can begin gently harvesting bark and fragrant leaves. Both parts of the plant are bursting with that signature warm aroma. Use the bark as a spice in baking, curries, or mulled drinks, and steep the leaves in teas or add them to savory dishes.
• 🌿 Cinnamon has been treasured for over 4,000 years. Ancient Egyptians used it in rituals, and Roman emperors burned it at funerals to show wealth - it was once worth more than gold. Its value helped drive global trade and exploration.
• 🌿 Today, cinnamon is celebrated not just for its flavor, but also its health benefits. It may help lower blood sugar, reduce inflammation, and fight bacteria and fungi. It's even linked to improved memory and brain function! The tree's powerful scent comes from cinnamaldehyde, a natural compound with medicinal properties.
• 🌿 Two main types of cinnamon:

🟤 Cassia Cinnamon – stronger, spicier, and most common in supermarkets
🟤 Ceylon Cinnamon – milder and sweeter, often called "true cinnamon"

🌿 In short: With a cinnamon tree near your kitchen, you’re not just growing a plant - you're growing a spice, a medicine, a piece of world history, and a daily source of joy!

🛒Start growing yours today - fresh, homegrown cinnamon is truly the spice of life!
