Rock Beats Dirt, Scissors. Paper Undefeated.

By lilybee

Last year I managed to perpetrate The Houseplant Apocalypse. Our living room was littered with plant corpses, it was pretty gruesome. Now I have New Plants, and in the manner of abusive plant owners everywhere I have promised them that this time things will be different and that I can change if they'll only give me a chance. In the spirit of reconciliation I have popped some decorative rocks in their pots. Rocking out houseplants has a couple of advantages, firstly rocks are prettier than dirt, (well, in my opinion) secondly rocks help retain moisture, so less watering is needed. Also if you've got kitties who like to poke around or uh, 'utilize' the dirt in your houseplants, rocks in the way are discouraging to feline nefariousness.
