do you have a plant on your work desk

[Hover Fly]

Hi got some Endura womens shorts, but the mountain bike style , baggy ones with padded inser, and going on long ride this Sunday.

I must have a cold coming on, first sign for me is misreading things, and at first glance I read "...soggy ones with padded insect..."

I have a small Bonzai that was given to me as a present a month or so ago which I appear to be slowly killing despite my best efforts to keep it alive.

I clicked no before remembering that I don't have a desk anyway.

i forgot to say my plant is a small allo vera kinda plant

 

[mcshroom]

No, but I do have 500ml of blue-green algae in a bottle, and a collection of fish tank plastic plants along the divider between my desk and the other side

Bonsais are impossible. I've had three and they've all resisted all attempts to sustain them. I've given up now. With regret, because I really like them and would love to be able to keep one.

If I had a plant on my desk it wouldn't survive

Cannabis indica - we're legally allowed one per person!

Bet it's a behemoth though!

I agree, this is my second. I've got the food, I'm pruning it, watering as I'm supposed to and so on. Ho hum.

No, it's a bit of a titch actually. Certainly not three rizlas' worth.

Camberwell carrot's out of the question then...

Twickenham twiglet more like!

I won a bet, one harvest time in a land far, far away, involving five kingsize, roached with the inner layer of a pack of marlboro.

it is good to have them in work, as they oxygenate the surrounding area, the more the better.

yup..its quite a round shaped bush, I dont know the proper name for it, some daft Latin name, but its stalk is long, and then the top is round, everyone who sees it comments on how pretty it looks when its in full bloom.

I'm pretty good at picking up ironic nuances normally, but you've got me thinking here Francesca.....

My Dad has dozens of bonsai on the go and has given away many more. He has a habit of turning everything into a bonsai just to have the variety in a small garden.

I think the only plant I am likely to have on my desk would be more like this.
