The Sunday Five: Plants


1: Did you have a garden when you were growing up? 

2: Are you able to keep houseplants alive? 

3: What is a favorite thing you have grown? 

4: Have you ever planted a tree? 

5: What are you currently growing? 

My answers: 

1: Did you have a garden when you were growing up?  Yes, I remember one spring, saying I was going to stay home that summer and weed my garden, a classmate responded that he was going to stay home and garden his weed. My grandmother around the corner on the farm had a spectacular garden. 

2: Are you able to keep houseplants alive? Not really. The cactus died from neglect. 

3: What is a favorite thing you have grown? Roses, at the last house in Florida. 

4: Have you ever planted a tree? Yes, and driven by 35 years later to see them standing tall. 

5: What are you currently growing? Content with life, no plants in the high rise with the northern exposure.

Please share your answers in the comments.

  1. 1. Not really. We had fruit trees (avocado, lemon and grapes). We also had gophers.
    2. Let's just say, if houseplants were people, I'd be in prison, having been convicted on several charges of involuntary manslaughter.
    3. Two sons.
    4. Yes. It's about forty years old now. It's a miracle!
    5. Old and grumpy with a beard. I may have mold.
