I wandered into a flower-shop after job-hour, and spotted a collection of several mini-phals hidden away in a corner. Ive always wanted one of theese little beautys, so i took one up to check the price-tag. Just starting in a new job, and havent yet got my first pay, so i havent mutch money to spare...and the price on theese little ones almost made me gasp after air... 215 kr, witch is about 20 dollars, more or less i think...
Well, laughing silently i put the litte beauty down, and was about to walk away when i spotted another behind the others. This one looked pretty poor...buds all dried out and only one flower left, and the medium looked all wet and packed sphagnum.
The shop-owner asked if she could be of any asistanse, and i responded by answering that Yes, she could, if she would consider selling me this one cheaper, since the flowers where all gone, the buds where dry and it needed repotting a.s.a.p...
She looked at me, as if i was some kind of a rare alien, and asked why i didnt rather want a healthy one? Nope, i have several ones at home, and i really would like a mini, but not at that price... and i bet she would not be able to sell this one anyway, looking as sad as it looks...
She took a look at the phal, and said i could get it for 50 kr..
Say hello to my new little sweety.
