Plants a Garden Centre Adventure.

As may have been mentioned elsewhere (I don't track what I write per see), I had a collection of plants at my last home. Of ninety-five plants in that collection (approximately sixty-five separate displays or creations), eighty or more were rehomed by my ex-partner who didn't want to look after them or care for them until I found somewhere to live.

She doorstepped me a few weeks back with a terrarium I made from a broken demijohn, that had (since I left my old home) been over-watered to the point that it was more water than soil, a prayer plant she bought me (it has nice leaves but I don’t feel for it), and a tray of mixed Christmas and Easter cacti I took from single leaf cuttings from my mother (who has just celebrated her eighty-seventh birthday). There are twelve in the tray and they flower periodically.

Yesterday, 12th of March 2022, I took a trip to the garden centre and spent £36 on a few `tots’ tiny plants, mere infants in the grand scheme of things. I videoed the process, and appended below is the feature-length movie of that day's exploits 😊
