Entire Shoplifter 2

One of my favourite strips from the original FcoL lineup was a one-off that featured the Entire Shoplifter. So of course when inspiration struck in the form of the newest challenge path, I had to do a sequel.

I wanted to get this comic done while the Mayam calendar was still available in Mr. Store, which... at the time of this posting, it still is, but only for a few more hours. The Mini Kiwi was sort of a last-minute addition, but well worth it if you ask me.

I had hoped it would grow really fast and shade my windows from the summer sun. Even though it doesn’t I really love this mini kiwi.

Did notice some vine weevil damage on the leaves though, so if I don’t do enough about them I might loose the plant this winter. Will take many cuttings!

I went to the local garden centre (if you can call 6 kilometres local) today and I had so much fun. I bought this kiwi, Actinidia arguta ‘Issai’ which I have wanted to have for a very long time. Finally I can grow the delicious fruit myself!!! They also had a red skinned variety but that needed a male plant for pollination and space is limited on the balcony so self pollinating Issai was the best choice. Some of the aragula had to go prematurely, but yeah such is life as plant under my care.

Mini kiwi got burned when sun shone directly after rain. Most of the plant still fine though and growing away at a good pace.
