New Phase

Here I will now feature my new hobby, plants. Suddenly it came upon me that why shouldn't I try check and see if I have a green thumb. First was the money tree that I thought would give me good fortune financially.



With some spare change on my pocket, I also decided to buy this small cactus like plant thinking cactus is so easy to take care of. If I failed on this one, then it answers my question about being a green thumb. I chose this one because the leaves seemed to remind me of the drawings from the band incubus.

Here's their first photos: (taken 03/04/10)

cabbage like cactus



At first i watered them almost daily, then some leaves of the cactus turned yellow. When I went back to the shop where I bought this, the lady told me that I shouldn't have watered them daily. Internet also thought me that I shouldn't give them too much care for they require very little attention. Wow! that's good news for me, even if I forgot about th em for a week, they'll survive, But I always water them whenever i feel that their soil is turning to a sand due to dryness.

I'll upload more pictures for the updated ones on my next blog.

BTW here's the drawing that inspired me:

It's the pointed leaves
