ShadyGreenThumb's blog: I miss my plants

Posted on Sep 20, 2012 11:54 AM

<p>I have been traveling. An unusual situation at work sends me away. Normally, I love it. And in a way, I still do. But I miss my plants. Terribly! I come back after a week and things have changed, grown, had bloomed...died. What a lucky woman I was to be able to see my landscape every day and watch over it, watch it change, help it along when it needed. I need to adjust to my being away. I am not sure my traveling will end next next month?  So I enjoy my plants when I can, appreciating them more than ever before!</p>
<p>On a good note, on my free time away in San Francisco I found my slightly sought after ZZ Plant. I will get acorns and acorns for that one when I get the chance to get that to the DataBase!  :)  I have been admiring the plant at my local nail salon for many years. I had to have one. I sort of made a part time search for it. While on the streets of Chinatown, set in the front shelves of a tiny, tiny beauty salon, there was my plant!  The only one!  I left it there the first time. But when it was still there the following week, I knew that was my plant!  All of Chinatown has been preparing for the Moon Festival this week. The smell of moon cakes baking fill the air in Chinatown. My plant is a nice rememberance of the preparations.  I will return this week to parades and all festivities that celebrate the Autumn Moon of the Chinese calender. The plant will wait for me at home.  I will bring  sweet little decorations for it. What a great souvenir!</p>
<p>When I can't feel the love from my plants while being away from home, I have managed to grab up some love from far away cities.</p>
