Gilbert the horticulturist
After a bracing walk in the forest followed by an excellent lunch, Gilbert decided to relax with a little indoor gardening.
He chose the plant he wished to work with and recognised that a little pruning was required. Plants benefit from careful trimming.
It was quite a healthy plant . . .
Then he expertly removed it from its pot, spreading the earth
neatly on the floor. He had intended to put paper down first but forgot. There was a little paper on the floor, so we can assume that he remembered, but too late.
He was just beginning the next phase, which might have been repotting, when Janice asked him what he was doing. She may have been a little sharp with him.
He was clearly very sorry and promised never to do it again . . .
. . . and how could you be cross with a little face like that?
Sensing that something was happening that might involve her, Roxy came to find out what he had been doing. After some conversation, and a gentle reprimand from her, they both repaired to bed for a well-earned snooze.
In a little while, Janice will attempt to identify the remains of the plant and pot up what's left. It is/was a trailing plant. Now it's more of a fallen plant.
