keep my plants alive

Snoopy has made a full recovery from his tumble down the stairs. Christmas is still on the weak side, but its hasn’t worsened. Venus is overgrowing… I really need to replant her. China isn’t back to optimum health, but she is doing much much better.

Y’know, if I knew what kinds of plants these were I probably wouldn’t be assigning them genders…

Watered plants. They’re all still alive. YAY!!!

a piece of a plant that broke off. My box of plants fell down the stairs and I put the plant in a cup of water until it grew roots. Snoopy is all better now. (yeah, you read that right, I name my plants)

My cacti are doing well!

Thankfully they’re cacti so they’re okay. But I want to prevent them from dying so I need to write notes to myself to keep on remembering to water them.

which is going to hard.

I recently “adopted” a whole bunch of plants from a client who ws leaving the country – included was a lotus pond! So cool :) But it weighed like a huge bag of bricks. A couple of friendly guys from the nearby carwash helped me moved it in… phew.

BUT! In my desperate effort to move it to a better spot, i popped it down and the pot cracked! *&%#!!! Was so mad at myself for doing that. So mow i have a lotus pond – with no water. The soil will hold water, but it will drain out like any regular pot. Duh! On the good side, it’s still alive.

That must be a good sign at least :P

My mum has given me a new plant for christmas so im thinking if this one stays alive till the summer and spike is also going strong still then I can happily tick this one off as done

spike the tree is still very much alive, he may be currently living in the kitchen rather than my room (i’ve still not finished unpacking from when I finished uni 3 months ago) but he’s doing rather well

The Girl was a little lax on watering them while I was away. We’ll see . . . but the situation does not look good.
