Woman Waters Plant For 2 Years – And Then Learns It’s Fake
This is totally something I could see happening to me.
When I saw this story on abc7.com I died laughing….because I could myself doing this.
I have drama following me all the time – and this is the kind of stuff that happens to me.
Caelie Wilkes shared her embarrassing story on Facebook and since it’s gone viral.
She said she’d probably still be watering the plant had she not decided to move it to a new pot.
That’s when she realized the plant she’d been caring for was actually green plastic, stuck in a styrofoam base with sand glued onto it.
So this is pretty cool – Thousands of people have shared her post including a higher-up at Home Depot. They even sent her a real succulent to take care of!
