2/12/2014 0 Comments She's Alive!So ok, now it's February and you might be asking how these roses have fared? Well, my lack of update to this blog might be a hint...unfortunately they all perished. At least, I thought they'd all perished. I was quite discouraged at my first attempt at growing roses from cuttings. I took all my containers outside and began dumping the dirt in one spot, until I noticed one little plant had a green shoot on it still. I figured hey, can't hurt. So I took that one root ball and put it in its own bigger container, and left it outside, figuring it can't be worse off than where it is now. Lo and behold, it's growing! As evidenced below. So, while I thought they'd all died, I did have one take hold. I have no idea which one it is, I only know it's one of those cuttings I brought home from my aunt's house.
Sometimes we look like we're dead, but God knows we're still alive. He gives us the bigger container we need, the air and sunshine, and the right amount of food, and He is so happy when we grow where we're planted!
