I haven’t shared the progress of Bertha the Clipping from Bellana’s Plant, Burt in a while.
Bertha is now 150 yards long and it has a new leaf that’s just about to open.
I exaggerate about the whole 150 yards long thing, but only a little. It’s going to be too long to stay in the dining room soon enough. Bertha is huge.
This morning at work has been INSANE. Crazy upon crazy upon crazy. I went upstairs to go to the bathroom in one of the brief breathing moments and figured I’d take a quick pic of Bertha, seeing as I haven’t documented Bertha’s progress for a while.
Bertha is HUGE, but she hasn’t grown a lot over the last week or two. She’s starting to open up a new leaf now, but it’s been a while since I saw any clear signs of growth. I’m a little worried about those spots on the Ficus though. Those don’t look happy.
Anyway, this will be my photo-a-day pic because I am not going to have time for anything more elaborate.
Duck and cover, it’s back to work time.
Bertha is already growing a new branch. The last new leaf has barely even opened and she’s already growing a new one! Holy crap, this little house plant is out of control!
Check out Bertha’s newest leaf. Everyday there is something new and this is the latest and greatest.
Bertha’s new leaf doesn’t even look like it is fully open and there’s already a new branch growing! Bertha is out of control!
I watered all of the houseplants today. Check out Bertha. Leaf #6 is coming along nicely.
I wonder, will she ever grow two new leaves at once? I don’t know.
Bertha the clipping from Bellana’s plant has a new home.
Already? The newest leaf has just opened up and it’s already growing a new branch?
YES!!
Bertha leaf #4 is starting to open up! Go Bertha!
I’m looking forward to the day when Bertha has so many leaves that we don’t notice when a new leaf grows.
Keep growing, little plant! You can do it! I’m so proud of you!
Grow! Grow! Grow! Grow! Grow!
