I know nothing about plants, other than that I’ve learnt that they die if I try to take care of them. So I leave them alone and they look after themselves. I’ve been ignoring this plant for a year. I don’t know what it is or what it does. The other day, I noticed a weird little mismatched shoot. It keeps growing, more and more overnight, like Jack’s Beanstalk, up and up and up. I think unfurling may happen. I am not even embarrassed about how exciting I find this.

This is my hobby now. Staring at this, waiting for something to emerge. It should be a sport. Furling. The Furling Championships. The Olympic Medal In Watching Things Unfurl. Better than worrying about politics, I tell you.

I love your hobby. I could watch that for days so definitely, furling should be a national sport.

@forestfern It should, seriously. Now I think that Hurling and Curling are just spelling mistakes. The sport they are meant to be playing is Furling.

@CiaraNi All those curlers intently looking at ice where plants don't grow. We just need to redirect them to the houseplants.

*seriously, I love curling and those curlers!

@mycrowgirl That's it! It's the anticipation. Accelerated by the fact that I know nothing about the plant so I don't know what may or may not emerge - I am observing it like an excited child.

@CiaraNi the best way to observe, honestly!
