). I also bought it from orchard, which i know dashes its chances alot, and, when it was on the ground, my neighbors employee's dog would take it and dump it out and chew on the pot so i would pay attention to her, or let her in.

All i have to say is that its a miracle its alive, and im proud of it.
Anywho, I wanted to post some pictures.

its getting a nice red color out there in the sun, i must say. Were pretty foggy here, but it really shows its colors when we get a spurt of sun.

The hanging pot was designed to keep the plant away from the dog AND moist.

Anywho, just showin off a little.
