Rerooting

I repotted this plant back in August. She’s been with me for about seven years in total now and has survived several moves — including nine months in a basement apartment, two years in foster care (thank you Sara, thank you Liz), and going on two more in the most beautiful natural light.

When I got here, to this most beautiful natural light, she had one stem with four leaves left. I almost trashed her. But instead, I decided to place her on my windowsill, give her water and attention, and just see what might happen. To my amazement two new stems popped up over time. And eventually, as happy plants do, she outgrew her container.
