Jasmine

After the Heart Walk in May 17, 2008, my friends and I went to Hawks Greenhouse to get our basket planted with flowers. I got there ahead of them so I went browsing around and I found this plant(Jasmine) in a 4inc pot. I bought it but it stayed in that little 4inc pot for more than a week before I had it transplanted. See that pink pot? in that same place, there was a plant in it before but it was dying so I decided to take it out and reused the pot.
Few days after I took this plant to my office it buds and there was so many of them. Since then, it keeps flowering and the flowers smells so good. I'm so happy that this plant did so good in my office. People think I have a green thumb but I don't think so. I think its the light (fluorescent), the miracle grow food and my love to this flower that keeps it grow well.
When I was in high school we had some Jasmine in my parents back yard, they just grew wild. We didn't had to take care of them, but they just kept flowering. So, having this plant in my office reminds me of the time when I was home for the weekend or for the summer.

The picture above was taken 2 days ago. The bud opened up this morning, its amazing, so amazing.
