I typically do pretty okay with houseplants, especially if they do okay with infrequent, erratic watering. I had for many years an African violet on loan from my sister in law when they lived in Switzerland. When they returned it went back to her, it had been a gift when their son was born. It had grown, thrived even, under my care and bloomed a ton. This was my replacement one. I've had it for many, many years but it never really grew any bigger and I don't think it's ever flowered. It's been in the same window as the other one and I don't think I watered the other one any better. Yet this one has slowly withered away & as you can see, is barely clinging to life. I think the time has come to say goodbye.
