This is the spot where I dug up the children of Philomena, to put in the green vases, to sit on table and counter.
Side note: The ugly frog, was made by my Other Mother that raised me, Daddy's sister Helen, and
given to my mother about 60 years ago. He guards our front door.
Of course, I digress....

| Philomena is doing well, she has about 6 new leaves |
We had Philomena's sister hanging on the porch and I think that is how her children
ended up by the frog.
Who knows and no one cares.
The thing Is, Digging those up and loving the one on the side table,
sent me to Home Depot for a plant for the other table.
For some reason, I who toses every thing, had the green planter that is from 1990, given to me when my mother died. The little plants that were in it, now are taking over our back yard..
This adorable plant has heart shaped leaves just like Philomena, but teeny tiny.
Alva is an exotic angel plant, Creeping Fig, ficus pumila and comes to us from South East Asia
I named her Alva after my grandmother and took her portrait in front of Philomena's child, now named Helen, after my Aunt. And she is living on my kitchen counter.
Philomena's other child is Lucille, after my mother and living in the living room HA HA
as you wait with bated breath, YES, there is a Chain Reaction 6 coming soon
