Creeping Jenny Plant Propagation The creeping jenny is a plant that produces seeds that can be used for its propagation. It is also a creeper that develops roots from the leaf nodes when they come into contact with the soil. Even stem cuttings can be used for propagating this plant.

Often called gray mold, Botrytis blight can affect many plants including those in the Lysimachia genus. This fungal disease is most prevalent during rainy conditions when temperatures are around 60 degrees. When the weather favors fungal diseases, look for a brown discoloration on the creeping Jenny.

Creeping Jenny grows readily and quickly, so plant them 12 to 18 inches (30.5 to 45.5 cm.) You can also take the container indoors, as creeping Jenny grows well as a houseplant. Just be sure to give it a cooler spot in the winter.

Creeping Jenny (Lysimachia nummularia) will do fine underwater for a very long time.

A nontoxic ground cover that grows well in part shade, creeping Jenny (Lysimachia nummularia) features petite, rounded leaves that turn golden with some sunlight, but will still be striking in shade.

Lavender, the plant, does contain a small amount of a compound called linalool, which is toxic to both dogs and cats. The linalool is found in such small concentrations, however, that this is rarely an issue. Problems arise only if a dog ingests a very large quantity of lavender.

Dogs’ noses are much more powerful than ours, so consider that if you use or diffuse essential oils in your home. Placing a few drops of lavender oil on a dog’s bedding may help calm them, or it may just cause further stress. These oils are toxic whether ingested by mouth or spread on the skin.

“[Lavender oil] can be used to calm and soothe your dog by gently rubbing it into your dog’s ear, fur and skin while giving your dog a pleasant massage,” Cornelius said. “Lavender oil also has antibacterial and anti-itch agents. This is great if your dog has a skin irritation.”

A few common essential oils that are SAFE to use for your cat include lavender, copaiba, helichrysum, and frankincense. If you diffuse oils in your home, it should not cause a problem for your cat, as oil used in a diffuser is highly diluted (versus direct topical application or dietary supplementation).

Many essential oils, such as eucalyptus oil, tea tree oil, cinnamon, citrus, peppermint, pine, wintergreen, and ylang ylang are straight up toxic to pets. These are toxic whether they are applied to the skin, used in diffusers or licked up in the case of a spill.

When using a diffuser, ensure that you are in an area with sufficient ventilation that your cat cannot access. Build-up of vapors can be toxic to pets, so don’t allow your cat in the area in which you were diffusing until vapors have been allowed to escape the space safely.

What Essential Oils Are Safe for Dogs?

• Chamomile. Few things in life beat a prime seat on the sofa, a soft blanket, and a cup of chamomile tea.

• Ginger.
• Lavender.
• Myrrh.
• Peppermint.
• Topical Application.
• Diffusers.

Many essential oils, such as eucalyptus oil, tea tree oil, cinnamon, citrus, pennyroyal, peppermint, pine, sweet birch, wintergreen, and ylang ylang are toxic to pets. These are toxic whether they are applied to the skin OR used in diffusers.

Scentsy Bars In researching Scentsy’s bar wax, their website says “Scentsy bar wax fragrance contain extremely low levels of non-harmful diethyl phthalate (DEP)…” Even at very low levels, DEP is a known danger to human development and reproduction, can cause allergies, immunotoxicity and is a known endocrine disruptor.

Technically no. Scentsy is not a scam. They produce legit products and pay their consultants for selling products like they say they will. However, just because it’s legit (technically) it doesn’t mean it’s the best opportunity for you to make money from home.

4-5 drops

A good rule of thumb is to start out with a few drops and work your way up. Your goal is to get a light and lasting scent instead of a dousing. Most ultrasonic diffusers hold 100mL of water. Ideally, most people recommend between three and five drops of essential oil for every 100mL of water.

Yes, it is possible to use essential oils in your wax warmer. This is the same idea as using a carrier oil in a reed diffuser. When it comes to Scentsy wax warmers, they say that their wax warmers are designed for wax melts specifically and that oil may discolor the dish you melt the wax in.

Adding too much or too little oil can impact mist output! To extend the life of your diffuser, please be certain to use only 100% Pure Essential Oils. any use of Fragrance Oils will void our warranty due to synthetic ingredients used. We’ve included a few directions below, to help with the maintenance of your diffuser.

Can you use pure vanilla extract as an essential oil in a diffuser? Short answer is yes, you should be able to use the extract in the diffuser. This is also a common problem with some high viscosity essential oil, they don’t break down completely in the diffuser.

Some diffusers require or work best with different types of water. The instructions included in many of today’s essential oil diffusers recommend that you use tap water in your diffuser because it includes natural minerals that help the water diffuse into a vapor better than distilled water.

Researcher Kai-Jen Chuang, PhD, of Taipei Medical University, points out that aromatherapy oils are also volatile organic compounds (VOCs), a kind of indoor air pollution that can irritate the eyes, throat, and lungs.
