#leaf patterns

The man on the radio wends his way through Wednesday morning helping us while away the hours. Weatherwise we're not exactly talking tropical, but definitely David Attenborough sweaty pits kind of weather. The traffic lady says there's animals loose on one of the main Dublin roads again, and suggests farmers need a fencing refresher course.

Today's groaner: a man fell into a vat of coffee and died. In an attempt to console his wife, the police told her "at least he didn't suffer; it was instant" ;-D badoom tish ... here all week!!

Off to the shiny metropolis, hip hip hooray, calloo callay. Well, maybe I'm not that excited about it ... but my poorly kitty cat needs vet tlc. Too tired to be overly quippy at this point, so as you were and tomorrow may bring more in the way of sentence silliness.

What time of year is it?

Also, my cloak so far—it’s about as long as my shin (I had to rip it out a few times to correct things)

Decoding the Mathematical Secrets of Plants’ Stunning Leaf Patterns

Part 4. I’m so happy I found this small String of Turtles. The name is enough to love this lush, tangled pile of patterned greens. The leaves are quite fragile tho, and come off easily. I should have saved the ones that fell of when I potted this mini as they can be used for propagation, like with most Peperomia’s.

Peperomia prostrata’s like their soil kept moist, but are very sensitive to overwatering. They thrive when slightly pot-bound, so no up-potting for now.
