All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

Got a lovely surprise yesterday morning coming in to my office! I have a little prayer plant on my desk and it seems to be sprouting some cute little flowers now! Never expected it to flower. Totally made my day!

The flowers don't seem to last long but they're very cute! That plant looks so happy!

No, they don't seem to last long at all. Those two there have already fallen off but there are three more farther down.

It brings me a lot of joy that it was happy enough to flower for me. I spent many years thinking I was terrible at talking care of plants, but now, knowing and better understanding what they need, it has taught me a lot.

Thanks for your comment!
