May 27, 2022 and February 19, 2023.

I’ve been putting very small plants in glass body butter jars as a matter of necessity (the only available space was the upper sliding part of the window until I got the sill extender up, which meant anything with a diameter over two and a half inches was a no-go), but as it turns out, dark glass in a sunny window heats up about as well as an electric seed-starter mat under the right conditions.

The Money Maker leaf-propagation and Tom Thumb cutting came as freebies with my moonstone when I was already really pushing things, space-wise. The Tom Thumb ended up in a pot with another plant, but the Money Maker got the jar treatment, and, ah, took to it pretty enthusiastically.

My mother gifted me a potful of Buddha’s Temple that was on the way to being Home Depot’d to death. I’m determined to love it back to full health.

…and after spending an hour pulling dead stems and taking cuttings to (hopefully) root, it turns out this pot is TWO STEMS. Possibly just ONE. How old must this thing be? I have no prior Buddha’s Temple experience.
