My birthday was last Friday and Angie and Tom had given me some photo albums which were really cute and then told me that my main gift was in a warehouse somewhere in Miami. I had no clue as to what they were going to give me and was excited to find out.
About a week prior they brought home a robellini palm tree that had seen its better days from one of their customers that got new ones. I love to revive plants so I decided to plant it and it is my favorite kind of palm. Tom told me it would be an Easter miracle if anything would grow out of it. I kept watering it faithfully though. Nothing happened.
Today Angie calls me out to tell me that she saw shoots growing out of it. I knew this wasn't true because I had checked it just a few minutes before that. Tom stuck some green on it to fake me out. I didn't buy it. Next thing I know I turn around and their is a brand new healthy robellini in Tom's arms. I was so happy. We planted it tonight. Now I can't wait to get mulch so our yard is really pretty.
I am planting the other palm in a different less noticable spot. I don't want to give up on it yet.
