The Miracle Flower

In May of 2009 I was graduating from UW-River Falls. I decided to throw a little party for my friends and I that were close since freshman year. My friend Liv brought me this little tiny geranium plant as a party gift. I took it home to my parent's house, since they were my new roommates. My mom put it in a new pot, and I didn't really do much with it after that. It would sit in the hallway window at my parent's house. It just kept getting bigger and bigger. My mom would forget about it, so it would turn all brown and icky. She'd pick off the ickies and water it, before she knew it, it was big and healthy again. However, it never produced a single bloom. Tony decided he wanted to bring it to our house. He trimmed it all up, and put it in the window in our lower level. It LOVES its new home! This week we even had the first bloom ever! I guess we need to get more plants to fill this window. We have just the best spot for them!

Thanks Liv for the gift that is still giving!
