New Year, New Growth

new mums

Sometimes little surprises bring tiny hopes and pleasures.

vase

Back in early December, I posted about an arrangement that included Chrysanthemum foliage and a flower that was still blooming.

new growth

I was lazy about removing the vase of foliage and berries, although I changed the water a couple of times. Imagine my surprise when new foliage started shooting up out of the top.

roots

Yes, the Mum cuttings were forming new roots! I couldn't just throw them out, so...

potted

I repotted a few, and I'll replant them in the garden in spring. It's a circle of life moment. Happy New Year!
