So I went and took some pictures of my plants (at the request of others) so that anyone who cares can look at them. This one here is my potato plant. It is like my baby. I am VERY overprotective of it. As you can see to the right of the picture, I have been slacking as a mother and have allowed the bugs to eat holes through the leaves.
This here is my Lilly. I haven't mentioned her much since I thought she was going to die. When I got her she had a single flower on her. Then in the process of digging a hole and depositing her, her flower fell off. I thought that was it. There were never any other indications that she was going to bloom again. I stuck with her though. I feed her and watered her on a regular basis. It has only been what, a week, maybe more, since I moved my plants into full sun and now look at her! The are about 10+ buds on her. (you can't really see them in the picture but I swear)
So, that is my lovely garden that I mentioned earlier. It isn't much but I enjoy it. I feel... more responsible now that I have this garden. If the plants die, it is basically my fault. I mean, I am the one who has to feed and water them, they won't do it themselves.

So you're "kitkat"! That's for commenting on my blog.
I thought, too, that my Canna lilies would die, but they are sending out new shoots and are blooming for the second time. Just water them when the first inch of soil surrounding the plant is dry. And don't worry about bugs eating your plants. A few leaves won't matter more or less.
