Being Addicted To Green

avatar

People say I have a green thumb. I'm not sure I deserve it, but I do love flowers, plants and am trying to do everything I can to protect every flower. My apartment is small, unfortunately I can't afford to have as many flowers as I can, but even with a limited space, I'm trying to grow my collection wisely.

Having a small cactus has been my dream for years now. Unfortunately finding the right one hasn't been easy. The gardening section of the hypermarket is full of goodies, but could rarely find something I liked and when I did, I had not room to carry it with me.

Saturday I went to buy some soil for my African violets and some pots and what did I see? These little cuties were waiting for people to take them home. I must admit, I knew right away what I want but felt bad not being able to buy them all. I mean, look at them, aren't they cute? Maybe one day I'll be able to have a substantial collection.

So this is the lucky winner, the little cutie pie that came home with me. For now I'm keeping it on my desk and admiring it as much as I can, but soon I need to find a permanent and suitable place for it. Somewhere sunny.

The other entry I'd like to show you is an orchid I got from my friend. She had a pot full of little ones next to the big one and it was time to separate them and repot the new ones. I was one of the lucky one to get one for free. So she got a new pot, a proper shower to refresh it and her it is.

This flower is a mystery though as all I know about it is that it's an orchid, nothing more. It's not an usual orchid, not like mine. I haven't seen it flowering either to be able to identify it. So now I'm waiting anxiously to see what kind of flower it has and try to identify it by running a search, which might not be such an easy job.

My African violets are becoming famous now, I've sold quite a lot and have got some orders as well, but you know how it is, you can't rush nature. Flowers have their cycle, they flower when it's time, not when we want them to. I'm not making this for money, you can't get rich on this unless you have a lot of pots, but I'm happy the flowers get a good home and are well taken care of.
