Hello all, sorry for being so negligent in writing. Well, I have finished with the FCI and am baking full time at Balducci’s. In fact, I’m the only baker there, yikes!
Since my last entry, two of my plants have departed. Two words: Spider mites. Gross, they entirely covered my ivy with their disgusting little webs.

The moral of the story is always keep new plants away from your old ones for a few weeks so you can be sure they aren’t hosting some sort of pest. Here is and interesting article about spider mites (albiet creepy) from Ohio State.
