Making Friends With a Weed
Meet Rosie, our shy plant – her leaves close when you touch them. I transplanted her from the curbside – without gloves (ouch!) and ignoring the confused looks from the neighbors – I know it’s a weed! We planted her in a pretty pot, trimmed her thorns and now we feed her blended up veggie scraps from […]
