I think you're kidding yourself calling it a plant. While technically true, I'd call it an Umbrella tree sapling. I have an article about these on...
Gday Brit, and welcome. As someone has already suggested, selecting the right plants is the key. I have beautiful palms in my bedroom. In their...
That'll be a fiver if you want me to spread my wings for the photo.
It's a very commonly repeated myth that pine needles make soil more acidic. They don't. The water that all trees 'suck up' is underestimated....

Here the cats play with budgies. They look just like that little toy.
North-east? So you're one of those sending down the trillianas and umbrella trees? :)
Lol, I'm guessing you've seen where I'm from, Netty. Good try but wombats don't climb trees. This was a possum in a Ficus elastica, Rubber...
