… I consider it a gift. It will soon be planted in a big pot and set to rest on the hallway table next to the container of potatoes. The potatoes will stay indoors, as they always have, but as this plant gets bigger, I’ll take the landlord up on his offer and take it downstairs to the outdoor garden.
