Housewarming/Plantwarming– a big hit

It worked. If you ever have a housewarming-- or even just a party-- and want people to bring something from their heart, that they don't have to work hard to create (unlike a hand braided rug, for instance), and is basically free-- then ask them to

House plant shame

I am ashamed. I am a plant professional, and plant teacher, and I am ashamed of my own houseplants. A boy I was seeing commented about our potential future together, "well, for one thing I couldn't live here with all these half-dead houseplants." Now,

New year!
