I brought this cutie patootie home yesterday afternoon... and within an hour two boys and a lamp came crashing down on top of it. #thisiswhywecanthavenicethings - boys wrestling on chairs. Thankfully the plant is ok, just short 3 leaves. Please, someone one up me with a plant disaster story?! Someone? Anyone?
