Who knew all this would happen afterwards! My winter garden against the living room windows. I let these little plants be my decorations for the season.

The will to survive

 Before:

I didn't allow any of the tomato sprouts to grow.


After:


I may only have one blossom from this poor old Gardenia! But there is one!


Have a very happy new month!

    1. I've pruned it too much...or not enough. But given a good shot of fertilizer, some leaves came through!

  3. Reminds me of a very early post of mine: https://anvilcloud.blogspot.com/2004/07/remarkable-rose.html.
    The photo no longer links, but the wonder remains.
    I see that I re-posted this once -- several years later than the original.

    1. When I had a fever the other night, I could smell the gardenia in the next room...it was blasting out its scent so widely. And now of course it's almost dead. Mmm, so am I, perhaps.
