bamboo wednesday!

it seems to be a growing trend (no pun intended) that stalks of bamboo seem to be making their way onto more and more canadian office desks. there are at least 8 or 9 people in my office out of about 40 that have bamboo sitting on their desks.

dying.

i'm actually quite shocked by the inability of these people to grow their bamboo plants. bamboo practically takes care of it self, all you have to do is put water in it every day. you can't seem to over-water them, but people in my office seem to be killing them on a regular basis. it's a pretty frequent sight to see a shriveled up bamboo stalk with a single leaf coming out of it.

so here's mine. i'm going to be posting a picture of it every wednesday to track its progress.
