Yesterday, Nigel saw that the Flying Dragon, our Evesham Chinese Takeaway of choice, had been trimming back their magnificent Jade Money Plant and had then put the cuttings on the wall for anyone passing to help themselves.
Now, although the little fella doesn’t know as much about Feng Shui as Hugh, Darrell’s best friend and prominent expert on all matters of a product placement and propagation type nature ……..
……. he did know enough not to look a gift bag horse in the face mouth, as said plants, as legend has it, are renowned for their powers of attracting wealth, if positioned properly in the home (or working environment), so it would have looked most rude not to avail himself of a sprig or two, despite being a total stranger to the world of cultivation etc.
He’s decided that once his bits are safely potted on and roots established, said Jade Money Plant would be best placed in an eastly position Chez Towers to “promote family harmony, health, initiation of projects and scholarly pursuits” ……..
……….. he just needs to find a compass now to work out where exactly that is……. What is he like?
We have one of these plants, but, until now, we never knew what is was called.
