My Heather Plant...Alive and Thriving
About a year ago I started a heather plant in my apartment window garden. Heather seeds are so small! They look like faerie dust. That says a lot right there...
I planted them as part of a Creative Dreaming exercise in abundance (Sowing the seeds of Abundance). She started off so small...but has been growing and growing and growing. Much like my dreams.
The Rest of the family
It's been incredible seeing everything take shape and grow into what it will. Like seeing Heather get bigger and more mature...stronger. It's been a great exercise in patience and hope. Germinating the seeds, waiting for them to sprout and peek their little forms out of the soil. All very rewarding.
Now, I'm getting ready to leave for Scotland again...continuing to nurture that seed. :) There's plenty of water there ;) And no shortage of magic faerie dust.
I was afraid that Heather wouldn't fare well in my absence...so I brought her to plant daycare, AKA my brother-in-law's office window garden. How amazing is this?
And here is Heather in her temporary home (She's the one with the green, felt, monster to guard her):
