Our Plant

As the leaves began to fall from our Sanggumay, I started to doubt the promise of the vendor at the Los Banos garden show. My cynicism grew proportionately with the number of leaves that kept falling to the ground. I felt so downhearted when all that was left of what was once a blossoming spray of green leaves was a hanging cluster of barren stems that barely showed any sign of life. I wanted to get rid of it but I chose to believe and did not give up.
