Lol, thank you Emma, you're very kind.
As for your violets, about a month ago, I bought soil and added to the post, some were repotted as it was needed, so I hope to see some results as that soil has nutrients that these plants need.
A few weeks back while at a plant nursery I saw that there was a leaf that had fallen off one and in that moment I remembered how you get yours for free so I picked up the leaf and promptly shoved it in my handbag while whistling to myself 🤣 But being the moron that I am, I forgot about it...it's now become compost in my bag lol. I thought you'd find that kind of funny.
😂😂😂 I think you can hear me laughing. Yes, one leaf is enough to get a huge arsenal, that's how I've grown my collection. I'm a leaf thief, I'm always looking for fallen leaves and there are always some, so ... you know, recycling, giving them a second life.
Better luck next time, as soon as you get home, put the leaf in water, or directly in soil. That's what I do. Once I bought a plastic can in the shop, to protect the leaf till I get home 😁
I knew you'd find that amusing 🤣 That was smart, buying a container. I think that next time I'll be very aware of my prior moronicism and will take better care!
I'm so glad that you've given them some new soil, I know that they tend to get quite pot-bound after a while. I gave one of the repotted ones away to a family friend and it had the tiniest little buds so I'm hoping she will get a good show of flowers soon.
Have a great day and keep on potting 😁🍃🌱
Thank you my friend, have a nice day too and watch out for fallen leaves 😏
