Venus Is Her Name

Venus' baby roots

Yup, finally named the cuttings from "Love".  I call her Venus.  I don't know why all my plants take the feminine role in my head, but they do, so whatever...lol.  Well today I looked at Venus while putting her in the window and noticed that SHE HAS ROOTS!!  They're little buds, but I can see them.  It usually takes approximately 2 weeks for roots to appear so is it safe to assume that I have megatron bionic plants since it's only been 3 days?? lol.  Anyway, I'm super happy...now I have another title under my hat, "Tea The Horticulturist"...don't that sound hot?!  Look at Venus and her gorgeous baby roots. *click here to see a close-up *

A Piece Of Love

golden pothos cuttings

Today I noticed that two vines on my golden pothos plant, who's name is "Love" was hanging on by a thread.  I put her outside a couple of weeks ago and the rain and wind went in on her...smh.  She's growing so beautifully despite the two limp vines.  I think I can save them.  So I cut and placed the vines in a square glass vase filled with water...hopefully they root.  I'll know within 2 weeks because that's how long it normally takes for roots to form in water. *Fingers crossed*

Yet another item to add to my "things i'm looking forward to in September" list.
