For Earth Day, Drexel was letting students pot plants. The little plant in the red solo cup is the one I potted today, the other two are my roommates plants from fall. It's a little Impatient plant and it's annual, so it'll die and if I want another one next year I'll have to go buy more, or wait for this annual event that Drexel seems to do. Perennials are the plants that come back every year, which kind of seems backwards at first, but then as you think about it makes sense. Annuals, you have to replant annually, and Perennials, well you don't. So hopefully the little Impatient will bloom and look pretty for a while, sitting on my windowsill.

I was going to post this earlier, but CAB was a little unprepared and they didn't bring any potting soil with them, so I was kind of running late getting back after my morning class and didn't have a lot of extra time.
