I received this Large Leaf Jade 10 years ago this year from a friend who gave it to me soon after I moved into my townhouse as a houswarming gift (along with some other plants) to make my garden start looking nice.
It's been through hell with some neighbours trying to kill it, knocking off branches (as it was originally planted out the front until I moved it into my backyard and made this area my little universe and let my front garden well... go a little wild).
Now, it's 10 years on and just look at it! I've repotted it twice and just the other day, I pulled it out of its current pot and back-filled it with more potting mix! And weighing about 35kg, it's a heavy little tree! :D
Writer, poet, artist and prolific reader.... that's me.
I'm a collector of books, vinyls, coin purses and strange handbags... that's me too.
Otherwise, I love...
