December 7, 2011


And this is where we are at today!  Alive and growing strong.  I will be posting more photographs, until this plant is large and totally healthy.  If you want to keep coming back, you can, this blog is more for me personally, like a flower journal.

It is interesting to me to watch this plant grow.  I learn so much from it.  You can see the two scars each stem has in one of its leaves.  The bottom leaf of the bottom stem, and the bottom leaf of the top stem.  I think the scars will always be there, but I think over time, they will be less noticeable.

Today I about panicked.  I have had this plant sitting in the beautiful sunlight of a window pointing West.  I have had it sitting behind the screen for its whole redemptive life.  However, yesterday, I moved it into the full sun, without the screen, and the leaf on the bottom left started to show signs of shriveling.  I sure hope that it doesn't fall.  I hope it can grow through this and be strong.  Again, I have concluded, that this plant hates! change.  Even moving from behind the screen to without the screen hurt one of the baby leaves.

Right now my plant has 10 leaves, and for my heart's sake, I sure hope it keeps growing healthy, and one day, blooms one of those beautiful blooms I recall from the plant that this one was cut from.
