On Tuesday, we finally got to bring together all the plants we've been taking care of at the studio to create a mini forest. There was "Prickly Caremel" from last year, the four plants we bought in Roncesvalle two weeks ago, and a cactus that showed up at the studio all by itself! We first created a landscape in Tofino's late home with pebbles that were given to us last week at a neighborhood lumber yard. Then, we discussed the arrangement of the plants and voted on whether to have a path through the forest, making the final decisions as a group. Filling the forest up with soil was a bit tricky especially around the prickly plants. We also learned that transplanting can be a very traumatic experience for plants.
