Yetunde at a window touching a plant leaf

About me

I have a crowded balcony, a living room full of leaves and no garden at all. I started with one pothos in a yoghurt pot and now I cannot count them. I write for people who have a windowsill and not much else.

Each Tuesday there is one idea: how I water when the sun is fierce, how I root a cutting in a jar, what I do about harmattan dust. Some plants die, and I tell you which and why.
