Say "Hi" to Kevin! (Patreon)

Back in September I was genuinely shocked that I'd managed to keep a plant alive for two and a half months, and here it is eight months later, genuinely ✨thriving✨

So, I've decided that despite the fact I don't ever name anything, including my guitars, this plant has earned a name. He shall henceforth and forever be known as "Kevin".

If you were here in the early days, you may remember that I almost killed Kevin, but somehow revived him by drowning him in water. He then produced two offspring... I've since killed both progeny and brought Kevin to the brink of death at least 3 more times 😅

But Kevin is a survivor. Kevin is strong like ox. Kevin is never gonna give (you) up. Kevin... Refuses to die. I do continue to give him water...when I remember 🫣 but I've never done anything else for him. The soil is hydrophobic and hard as a rock. I've never changed the soil or added fresh soil. I've never repotted him. But somehow, Kevin is alive, well, and has at least doubled in size.

I have never kept another plant alive. But Kevin has given me hope 🥹 (jk I know full well that I will probably murder every other plant for the rest of forever 😂)

Should I get him a new sign, or do we still think I might murder him yet? 😅

Have you ever tried to keep a plant? What's the longest you've kept a plant alive?
