This plant can do it, so can you

The creation we are looking at here is
a Mediterranean native, patina silverish sage colored plant with deep yellow flowers. That is how I see it. They call it Dusty Miller for whatever reason.
The plant that I saved from a local Ralphs grocery store in Malibu.
Yeah, the one by Pepperdine, studied there, a long time ago. Beautiful place. They still have my picture on the wall.

I bent the truth there slightly, but I live nearby, 10min via residential streets and some 25-30 min freeway.
So, very close.
I don’t think I paid for it either, just took it and ran…
…Ran
You feel me? …….
Deal with it.
When I picked it up, it was very light and shriveled, sitting in a dried up pot. The rolling shelf contained 3 levels of dried up Dusty Millers. I think it would look odd if I rolled away with the entire shelf.
But now see, it’s smiling at me, so it was all worth it.
It’s considered a drought tolerant plant, and maybe it is, in the wild; but see nature didn’t create plastic containers, so if you plant it in one, make sure to water it every week. Trust me, it’ll let you know.
And just so you know…
Our Zinfandel vine is manifesting.

Have you ever come across a natural organic toilet bowl brush?
Bright colored, soft bristles, perfect shape?
I think I lucked out and could not pass by it.

I even made a short video for you, that is how impressed I was.
