Plastic plants need love, too. They don’t, however, need water.

There’s something great about buying a plant, taking care of it and actually having it survive for more than a week or two. So, imagine the shock that one woman must have felt when she realized that a plant she had been caring for and watering for two years was actually made out of plastic.

We just tend to take everything too seriously sometimes, I think.

Sometimes, a good belly laugh is the best medicine.

A story that doesn't really belong on the gardening thread as it really does not involve a plant, gardening, or a gardener. A Sad human interest story.

"How did I not know this. I pull it from the container it’s sitting on Styrofoam with sand glued to the top! I feel like these last two years have been a lie."

(I will say it is a pretty good looking fake succulent that suitable for a formica desk in an office made of steel and glass! :)
