Anthurium houseplant from Tesco. These houseplants are for sale everywhere and because they are so common I had always failed to see how lovely they are.

Not only is it pretty, it is a real doer. It grows so cheerfully and sturdily that after a few months it has become unique, well established, my own dear plant and not the ubiquitous supermarket staple.

Haha. Is he scuttling back your way, right as we speak? X
