take better care of my plants

I have been neglecting my plants a little bit lately. This weekend I took just a few minutes and added some new dirt to two of my house plants. I watered them with some plant food and put them back. It’s amazing how resiliant they are! The next day both were much greener and they seemed fuller or perkier! I feel bad if all I have to do is take a couple minutes to make them so much happier and I rarely do it. Let this be a lesson to me!

I have a problem with plants, similar to my problem with cooking. I can’t do it! Much to my mother’s dismay, I cause plants to die, quickly. But the apartment is so much nicer when there are live things in it. I was recently given a bunch of plants and I am determined to keep them alive. I am going to buy some plant food this week and I’m going to give myself a weekly reminder to give them some love and care. We’ll see what happens.
