When I saw the calla lily in my son’s hand when he came over last Mother’s Day my first thought was, “Shit, a plant I need to keep alive,” but I smiled and thanked him.
Sure enough I killed it by July, or thought I did. Turns out the calla lily is going to bloom again!
It looks so healthy! You’re not a very effective murderer, apparently.
Yeah, I was certainly shocked. Now that bay tree in the background might very well be dead unless my husband has been watering it.
Yay! I’m glad you didn’t throw it out.
Your initial reaction to such a beautiful gift made me laugh. I used to love house plants, but am starting to resent them for being so needy.
I do miss babysitting your plants
(I have the same reaction if someone gives me a plant. I kill them.)
That lying lily!
