Growing avocado trees from scratch

Avocados are delicious and very loved in our household so I was joking around with my hubby last night that I could grow it out of the 2 pits I used tonight for dinner :)

That said, I got the pits, glass of water, toothpicks out and prepared the pits for their long journey (few weeks/months) to becoming a yummy avocado tree.

I think the picture will show you enough detail of how it's done :)

I read I have to refresh the water every 2 days so hopefully I won't forget that ;) 

To let you be part of this progress I will every day take a picture and post it. This blogging is so much fun :)

Finally here are the "pits in progress" :)

Plant rescue mission - from trash to pretty

On my daily morning walk I notice, while crossing the alley, that someone threw out 2 perfectly nice house plants in some old wasted basket.

I hate seeing things go to waste and I love plants so you guessed it :)

Perfectly goes within my budget too (don't laugh...ah well...laugh!!!) FREE!!!

Immediately after I dropped off the puppy at home, I walked back and took the 2 plants.

I forgot to take picture of both ;)

Here is a pot I still had in the garage, with some soil too

Thrifty and free!!!

Here they are ready to go on my dining room table :)

Gotta look up what kind of plants they are though...do you know?
