Sentimental

[poliphilo]

We buy lots of plants.

Aliz likes cactii and I like things that aren't cactii.

Every surface in the house is groaning under the weight of our little green friends. 

Often we buy them because we feel sorry for them. There was a whole passel of sunflower plants in Lidl the other day. They hadn't been watered and they were looking forlorn. I had to have one.

Plants have personalities, don't you think?

So do rocks....

I buy plants that I think are cute. For several years I had a baby Christmas tree bought at a WI market, and had fun finding tiny lights and weeny decorations for it. Eventually it grew too big for the kitchen windowsill and I put the pot outside, whereupon it died.

I'll buy things even if they're not cute. Very few of our plants are much to look at (and a number of them have been chewed by rabbits).
