Adorable Pink Lady.

She's supposed to be hard to get to survive over the winter.
But I hope not, she's so adorable.
And I think she likes her new home.

The visitors.

I've got visitors for the winter. Two flowers belonging to my mom has moved in with me in Le Dungeon. They've also been standing in the greenhouse during the summer, but in a bad place of it. So they haven't been given as much attention as they would like to. Poor little pretties.

So now when it was time to move them inside, I asked if I should move them into my room. Thinking that hopefully they'll get more care and water there. She agreed. My mom is kinda forgetful about watering flowers normally. I moved them today and also gave them a haircut.

I might have to cut them down even more during the winter. That depends on how well they do in there. I can be forgetful too about watering my plants. But that usually happens when I'm feeling very bad and can't handle the depression very well. I think I've got that under control now.

Now if only I can get my bedtime hours working better I'll enjoy waking up a lot more. It would be nice to be able to just stay in bed a few min and admire the view when I wake up. But because I sleep so badly right now, I wake up too late and have to get up as soon as I'm awake. Bummer.

My winter babe.

So, I have a lot of flowers currently living with a good friend of mine. This is one of them. I don't remember when I bought it but it's at least 1,5 years ago now. It's a sort of blooming cactus. When you buy them here in the shop they're called either spring, winter, summer or autumn cactus. So far I don't know the difference between them except that the flowers all look a bit different. I think.

Anyways. It was early spring and still cold outside when I bought mine. It was blooming in the shop. But they're a bit sensitive and the walk home in the cold chocked it and all the flowers fell of. After that it got a bit abused because of me being depressed so it didn't bloom again. That is until it moved in with my most awesome friend.

In his care it decided to send out flowers again. I visited when it had buds big enough to burst, but sadly wasn't there for the blooming. But he was very kind and sent me these pictures so I could at least see how it looked. I think they're gorgeous, ofc. I do hope I can get it to bloom like this again when I have it back in my care. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Gah I wish I could move right now.

A good morning.

I found this pretty lady when I woke up today. Translated from Swedish it's an English Geranium. But I'm pretty sure they have a different name in English really. I just can't remember it right now, I'll check it up later. But I will forget it again. Anyways, it's a very pretty flower none the less.

The other day I was on my way to cut of some babies from her to make new flowers. I wanna give one to my mom because her flower died earlier this summer because of some icky white vermin that decided to visit. But, when I went down to cut of the pieces. I noticed she's got flower buds all over her self. And I just can't cut those of. So I guess I'll have to wait a while. :-)

Happy plants happy me.

It seems my plants are enjoying their new home and artificial sunlight. I'm gonna keep my eye on them closely for a while longer anyway. In case need to adjust the height of the lamp or anything. But so far so good.

Most of the flowers standing under it have been outside during the summer. Standing in the small greenhouse in the garden. I haven't payed them enough attention out there sadly. But it looks like they've been doing fine. But it's a lot more fun to have them back in my room. Every morning when I wake up the first thing I notice and check is my flowers.

It gives me energy and happy feelings when I take care of my flowers and watch them grow and be happy. I love it.
