🌵✨ Meet Curie: not the smallest cactus in the collection,...
🌵✨ Meet Curie: not the smallest cactus in the collection, but absolutely the one with the most secrets. 🕵️♀️💋 Named after Madame Curie for her brilliance and barely-contained chaos, she’s a succulent with a scientific mind and a flair for the forbidden. 🧪🔥
Once the centerpiece of a high-stakes succulent swap in Barcelona 🇪🇸, Curie was smuggled out under mysterious circumstances involving a disgraced botanist 🧤, a mislabeled crate of heirloom tomatoes 🍅, and a customs officer with a soft spot for cacti 🌿💼.
She’s been banned from three conservatories 🏛️ for “emitting chaotic energy” ⚡ and allegedly seducing a rare lithops into blooming out of season 🌸😱. Her ceramic pot? Custom-fired in Tuscany 🇮🇹 after she was caught impersonating a bonsai at a gala 🎭.
Now she reigns from her perch in my collection 👑, whispering secrets to the other plants 🫢🌱 and claiming she once dated a jade plant named Lorenzo 💚 who now refuses to photosynthesize in her presence ☀️🚫.
