Home watching kids for the duration of this altered state.
Im glad I have my plants.
Definitely aiding my levels of sanity.

so I have 2 youngin’s here I thought I would get documented.

First - A little Norway spruce project.
My daughter brought the seedling home from her kindergarten class on earth day last year.

I Did find this pic.

I put some wire on it, and gave it the old corkscrew bend.
I read somewhere that these spruces take for ever to wire in place.
Therefore, I’m trying one of P. Chan’s techniques and leaving it in.

Next is my first plant -intended for bonsai-
2018 Xmas gift from my mom.
Came from amazon dealer -green 9box or something. 😬
3 Small nana cuttings in soil,with some pebbles, in a bag, with a pot.
Didn’t even come with a ceramic pot which was shown. (Did come in a rugged plastic bonsai pot though).

-was in a box and gift wrapped for a number of days.
- Was completely shaken out of the pot and mixed up in the box. Immediate re-pot!
-Spent almost a year indoors!
- Was re-potted twice more since. Soil issues and then knocked off the table.

Tough lil punk is showing some vigor nowadays.
