When a plant doesn’t get enough water, it wilts. Even with such an obvious sign, for some of us (including me) it’s still very difficult to keep the regular watering in mind. Me, I gave up long time ago the hope of being a plants good friend. All my houseplants had an early death. Sad.

[…] Cactus Garden I swear I tried everything, but it seems houseplants are not for me. I can’t keep them alive, not even cactuses. So until I can put my hands on a Roly-Poly Pot, I’m forced to surround myself with artificial plants. Of course, not made of plastic. […]
