Whenever I buy avocados from the supermarket, Maru stops me from throwing out the pits.
She’s mastered making them sprout, and has populated our flat with avocado plants.
She attempts to germinate about 5-8 at a time, and often can be found giving them away to friends.
She has also started picking up decanters from antique shops to house the pits and their roots whilst the stem and leaves grow.
It’s a proper thing now.
If you want to give it a go, or know someone who would, the avocado vase is a great addition to your mantle piece or a nice gift!
