  1. Very interesting … I at first thought it was some sort of pepper plant, but now I’m not sure. Remember I told you about the flower I had that died, then the next day it was fine, then it died, then it came back to life? We began calling it the ‘reincarnation plant’. It finally ran out of lives. Actually, I think I, who does NOT have a green thumb, killed it. My neighbor, Maha, who DOES have a green thumb, told me it needed a bigger pot. So, I bought a bigger pot and some soil. And one morning I re-potted it. Then I watered it. Then it rained. The next day, there was 2″ of water standing on top of the soil in the pot. I poured that out, but then it rained again. Long story short, even though there are holes in the bottom of the pot, the water never drained … and … snif … the poor little flower … died … drowned. :'( Maha has informed me that from now on, I am not allowed to touch the flowers. Sigh. Good thing I didn’t become a botanist or a horticulturist, huh?
