How Long Will These Last...

About a month ago i put a few plants on the steps of my place...

It's important to note that I'm not very good with taking care of plants. That's why you'll only see the types of plants around my place that "thrive on neglect". I literally bought one plant with that in it's description.

So Last month i bought almost 20 dollars worth of little 'heat loving' plants to put on the steps in these cute little plastic matching planters. Fast forward to the present and 3 of them have turned into crispy yellow fritters. So this weekend i trekked to Home Depot and bought 'trailing lavendars' - that are meant to be heat and drought resistant ground cover plants. So we'll see how these green friends fair on the sun-soaked steps of my place.

Meanwhile my indoor palm tree from SAV ON was starting to look a little sad and droopy. (I've had it for almost a year, believe it or not.) Could it be it's little roots were sticking out of the dirt because it's pot was just too small for it? I'm guessing so.


We upgraded from 12' pot to a 19' pot and now the palm is styling the oversized pot look. Let's hope this does the trick.
