On a more successful garden note...this also happened today:
 |
| RANUNCULUS ON THE FRONT PORCH! |
 |
| I do love these flowers. So pretty. |
I also bought a new plant. An indoor plant, to fill the void left by Plantie. A Peace Lily (or Spathiphyllum), which I still refer to as a he. A plant that is happiest in low to medium light, who asks that I keep his soil moist, but who should otherwise be very happy in our ambiently-lit living room without direct sunlight. Here's hoping, Plantie2.

| He looks happy, if a little tilted. Anyone else thing he's leaning a little to the right? Should I attempt to straighten him? Is he ok? I am a terrible plant owner. |
PS Big thanks to Dana, Steve and Sienna for including me on their field trip to Berkeley Hort! Couldn't have done this post without y'all :)
We look forward to more garden fun!
ReplyDeleteOnce the rain stops and we get this damn stump out of the ground, anyway! :)
ReplyDeleteJust keep rotating him as he leans toward the window. (I give this advice but don't take it--my begonia (Windoplant) always just gets turned so I can see her flowers, wherever she puts them.) He'll gradually lean back toward the window, so just turn him away from it again. That'll keep him straight.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good idea. He grew/expanded/straightened a bit while we were gone, which was pretty cool to see upon our return (not dead! in fact, perhaps more alive!). I think the trick is not overwatering. I am very good at overwatering.
