I really shouldn't do this but since I have no fear that my oldest DD will ever come cruising around on DG I'll get away with it. LOL

When I ordered the 5 Trailing violets from Cedar Creek one was Ramblin' Spots. Well they sent my a free gift of Ramblin' Spots also. Both violets were the exact same size when they arrived.

When they got a bit bigger I potted them both into self watering containers and gave one to my oldest daughter. She's not into plants but I figured all she had to do was keep the self watering pot full, right? At first hers bloomed and looked like mine but then she was busy etc etc. Well a month ago I went and rescued the poor thing!! LOL

Here are the two Ramblin' Spots now, that are the exact same age and from the same vendor etc.....Shows the difference basic care makes to a plant! :-)
