Impulse Buy....

 This is a sweet shamrock plant that I picked up at the grocery store. You know at the end of check-out lanes. So you are tempted while just waiting.
I made a remark to Missy over at This & That, that I have always wanted a shamrock plant ...but knowing me , I would forget to water it. But look Missy, it was one dollar....almost a steal. If I would keep this on the kitchen window sill, I may remember to give it a drink once a week. Maybe :):) If I have  it  next year, I'll post a photo.
 We may get some rain today. I am praying if we get any moisture, it is very little. Our ground is saturated right now. Wishing everyone a great day. xo

  2. I don't know if I've ever seen a real live shamrock. I thought they just grew in the fields. Shows how little I know.

  3. I think rain is headed your way Susie as it raining pretty hard here and there is water standing in the frozen yard.
    The shamrock plant is beautiful.

  4. $1 wow. At my grocery they were $4. I love shamrock plants. They are hard to keep, at least for me. I don't think they like a lot of water. Anything green with a flower on it is a good thing after this winter. I bought a pot of daffodils......has only had two blooms......and an African violet.

  7. I had a shamrock plant once. It didn't last for me. I hope you have better luck with it. It's drizzling off and on here too. At least it's not more snow!

  8. I want a shamrock plant, Susie! How delightful this is. I've never seen one before.......and only a dollar! I hope it's still alive next year so you can show us again.

    It has been very nice here lately, and loving the sunshine.

  11. What a sweet little plant. I think the kitchen window sill would be a perfect place for it (and there is lots of water handy)

  14. Awe, I've never seen one before. It's so pretty. I hope the rain passes you by and let's keep our fingers crossed that old man winter gets pushed on out the door soon. I'm like you, it doesn't take much to make me happy. I want to hear the little birds sing and see some green grass. lol Hugs to you my friend, xo

  15. It looks so very cheerful. Keep it alive and you'll have good luck FOREVER! (I think.)

  16. It's a lovely plant. As we say in the supermarket business," Your first loss is your best loss." We did the same thing in my store. Once St. Patrick's day is over they want to move 'em out.

  17. It looks like you got an amazing deal! And you will enjoy it inside and can put it in the flower bed later. Plants are so good inside for healthy atmospheres! Sweet hugs!

  18. I have a shamrock plant (remember I couldn't remember the name of it, and I think you are the one that told me!) and I've had it for years. Love it.
