>>>>How are you, Jenny?
I am ok, bit depressed. Lot of pressure from everywhere. Only house plant love is helping me.
Sorry to hear of your depression, I know how bad that can be.
Working with and enjoying my plants helps me too.
Glad you have them to care for.
If we were closer I’d bake you some cookies and come for a visit.
You take care.
Jenny....I’m sorry to hear you are feeling down. I hope your spirits will be lifted, soon. Please know how appreciated you and your wonderful posts, here, are for all of us.
I’ve been meaning to tell you....your houseplant love is contagious!!
I hadn’t had houseplants in YEARS! After I read your posts about the plants you found at Walmart, and various other places, I stopped in our local Walmart garden center and ‘rescued’ a palm and corn (?) plant, that were sad looking, and on the clearance shelf.
I took them home, doctored them up (treated for spider mites, cut off dead leaves, etc.) and repotted. They are thriving....and, so beautiful, in my living room!
My grandbabies get the biggest kick out of helping, on watering and spraying day, when they’re here.
So, I just want to thank you for the inspiration. No fancy plants, just the palm, corn plant, a ficus tree (that we bought earlier in the year) and now a new, little money tree. I also have an orchid that we received as a gift...that I’ve managed to keep alive...and have now seen it’s second bloom cycle. Trying to learn more about how to prune/care for, for that one.
You planted the seed for me to get back in to caring for houseplants, again.
Thank you SO very much!
