My Sunday Photo 2017 #3

Some of my previous posts will tell you that I'm not very green fingered, looking after plants really isn't my thing. The kids tried growing their own plants last Summer and it all started well but I fear I may have given them the kiss of death when I went ahead and watered them because alas they didn't survive.

But I think I might just have found a plant that I can handle, one that will stay in bloom more than just a couple of days and that is the wonderful poinsettia. I bought one a week before Christmas, only because the label said that it would last past Christmas, there's me thinking I didn't need to do anything to it, forgot about the watering part.

However much to my surprise here we are, the second week of January and my lovely poinsettia is still hanging on in there.

  1. Impressive! Yours is looking better than mine, although mine is still hanging on in there!
    I'm pretty bad with plants too, but I've got just one that I've had over two years, which is still alive. All I do is water it once a week and it seems to work.

  2. I forgot to buy one this year, if you get them right they will stay in flour well into spring, this looks as healthy as the day you bought it.
