One pot became four! I was at Dinuba Raisin Day's Women Luncheon in September and was one of the recipients of a door price -- a pot of plants! After a week of enjoying it inside I decided it was time to transplant (before the plants die from clastrophobia). And this is what I now have -- four growing plants. The ivy is really extending its vines and might need to be transplanted again --in the spring. The orange flowered suculant is fading.
I must admit that when they started to draw the names for the prizes I was praying "please Lord, could I win a price". God was very kind & gracious in hearing and answering my prayer (that had underlying tones of self-pity.)
Besides these plants I have some outside my bedroom window that I keep nurturing. We'll see what winter does to them. I'm also learning how to care for the six roses bushes we have. There's one long stem red rose bush that has the best fragrance. Those I'm quick to clip and put in a vase inside.

Those are pretty plants. :) I have one house plant that I have had for 2 years now. I haven't done very well with it the last few months. I forget to water it, but in spite of my abuse, it is still alive!
Judging from the picture, I think the ivy is called "Swedish Ivy", and the bottom pot seems to be a coleus. Isn't God's creation beautiful?
