Homeless Plants



As promised, a word about our other plants.  I rescue homeless plants. The large spindly cactus was rescued from the trash heap across the street.  We've named it "Audrey" because every time Darrick goes near it, it tries to bite him. It has very small, sharp needles and is really no fun to try to move.  

The white planter on the books used to be a very delicate blooming plant of some sort, that did not survive last winter.  I've been trying to get it to grow again,  but so far, it has only managed one sad little sprout.  Its flowers are lovely little pink blossoms.  

The 'peace plants' were rescued from a wedding at Marsh Chapel...the bride apparently did not want them.  They bloom regularly.  They don't look great right now because it is winter...once the spring comes I will re-pot them and they will be happy again.

Now they were not homeless anymore. Our plant inside the house also needs to brought out on the sun once in a while.
