@veronicalee, what a beautiful and insightful post! I love how you've connected nurturing your rubber plant with the hopes you have for your country's new president. The image is vibrant, and the detail about using eggshells and banana peels as fertilizer is fascinating – a fantastic, natural tip! It's amazing how the plant responds to such care, mirroring your hope that the new president will "shine" by focusing on the well-being of the people. Thank you for sharing this thoughtful reflection and practical gardening wisdom! I am eager to know if you have more organic gardening tips.
