Our first plant!

One task that's been particularly difficult to achieve is growing a house plant here. Mostly because we're new and don't know where to look for such things. I've got my Amazon wishlist full of seeds and planters and kits, but then not knowing where to obtain soil, there they have remained. I saw a few plants during our first visit to the Sunday market, but a lack of cash and general wariness about them prevented me from getting them. But I think it turned out well because we finally went to the mall! I'll talk more about the mall in a later post (I want to get more pictures), but there's a store there that has some nice plants. We chose the one below!

It's growing up so fast!

I also have no idea what kind of plant it is, but it was healthy looking and a nice size to put on the shelf. I think for our next trip though, we need to get bigger pot and some soil as it seems to be growing well and I'm sure would appreciate the extra grow room.

Since Autumn is soon I'm not so gung ho about getting things to grow, but I wonder what kind of plants they'll have around here if so!
