Little Buddy is breaking out!

Of the two rose cuttings my Mom gave me, one has survived. The other one got eaten up by little white web-spinning mites. I thought I had treated it fast enough using a mix of 3 parts water, 1 part dish soap, and 1 part cooking oil, but it's leaves fell off. A few days later, it looked like it wanted to sprout a whole new group of leaves, so I watered it and put it back in the window to get some sun. Unfortunately, it dried up and turned black, so we called it quits.

The other cutting, which we've started referring to as Buddy (haha, get it!?), is sprouting new leaves in three or four different places! I'm so excited that this one looks like it's going to make it! I'll have to go to Home Depot this weekend and get a bigger pot to plant it in:)


Our little tomato plant is also starting to bear fruit. The strawberries have been taking a break, but they look like they're about to break into a second round of fruit-bearing soon:)

Good 'garden' all around:)
