| Bertil Lind, Malmö | ||||||||||||
| Even though Bertil doesn't describe himself as a plant enthusiast his balcony with a fair view over the city of Malmö is a flowering and lush oasis. Bertil bought this common Pelargonium at a regular garden center in Malmö. After four years in his care it has grown into an unbelievable huge bush, taller than Bertil himself! He has during the years taken several cuttings that now are accompaning the big one on the balcony. "It's quite unusual that they grow this big" Bertil says, "nobody can believe they are just four years old!" Well, something are making the plants very happy, maybe it is the view in combination of a caring waterer that plays classical music for them.. Bertil gives the small plants one can of water and two cans to the big one. He also cuts of the withered leaves and gives them fertilizer once in a while. Cuttings from this plant is now for sale at Vintage Plant. |
