For my birthday and Valentines day Jason asked me what he could get me.
A baby was out of the question....and for some reason diamonds were too.
So, I asked him to get me house plants. Something that I can grow and something alive in our house!
Being such a wise, and lovely husband he got me exactly what I asked for.
I received 3 different plants that I replanted into cute little red pots I got at Target.
I have to be honest though, I do not have a great track record with house plants.
So it was not a surprise that one had completely died, and another one was on the way out the door.
I did my best to will them and love them back to life, but alas....it was not enough.
Sadly, I said goodbye to them and made room in my heart for new plants.
Hopefully I will do a better job of keeping these alive.

These are some of the new ones (in a coffee can planter)
Another new one.
Another new one.
Finally the only plant that survived the over watering and too much sun!
I know what you mean about the houseplants dying, only I have to constantly remind myself that they don't stay so pretty without things like sunlight and water... But hey, if I can do it (so far in my very short-lived but very serious gardening career), you can too! :)
ReplyDeleteoh, looks like you got your green thumb from your mother. . . lucky girl you! :(
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to your new plants. . . .

ReplyDeleteI'm the same way with plants Stacey! We have three plants. One of which I just think won't ever die no matter how bad I neglect it, the other two are on the verge but Jeff keeps resuscitating them! :)
ReplyDeleteI just bought and orchid and i have been trying everything to keep that thing alive, I even went to a greenhouse place they said because I bought it from wal-mart it was doing bad. So I don't feel so bad about killing it :o)
