Spiky Palm Type Plant & Suff

"I really do not know what it is called. so far it is doing ok here in the office... the one of the pair started doing very bad. most of it's frond/leafs died so I trimmed it way back. Then I found the top had mold growing on the new bits so I cut that out.

Today I found that the middle was squishy and looked rotted so I chopped it. With luck it's will grow back new tips. I also put the top part in water to grow roots. then I can stick it in the pot with the living one.

Also my vine-thing might have died... and my spider plant is doing good. So far... "

I wrote that back in January. Let's just say that the palm-thingy I chopped was not the same kind as what my parent have and I think it's dead. Also the larger of the little vine things definatly looks dead.

on the plus side, the spider plant is fine and the other little vine thing seems to be growing buds. which makes me happy.

I have added a few more plants, 2 poinsettias and some leafy things. they are so far still doing good. I need to water everything before I leave for the weekend.

English Ivy

I totally killed my English Ivy.

I was hopping that it dropped it's leafs due to the winter and not because of me. The internet said that it was supposed to be evergreen so that answered that. Apperntly they like to dry out a little and I kinda over watered it.

After the new years I'll try taking in one of the little pots with baby succulents in it. I have no idea what type they are but they seem to be hardy little things. I managed to grow the babes from planting their leafs. So there is hope.

I also got an orchid for a gift from one of my bosses. It is doing well. So far. It is tiny and cute and still has flowers. Here's hopping.
