how did a tiny orange tree become my biggest comeback story yet?

This little orange tree means everything to me. I planted it for my toddler, hoping it would be a living memory. But then, out of nowhere, fungus gnats showed up and nearly wrecked it. I freaked out, but I didn’t give up. I swapped out the topsoil, let it dry out between waterings, and set out sticky traps. Every day, I checked for new bugs and wiped down the leaves. Now, the tree is bursting with fresh green shoots. It’s wild how much joy I get from seeing those new leaves. Taking care of it, even when it was tough, made the wins feel huge. If you’re struggling with a plant, keep going. The little victories add up and make it all worth it. #gardening #healing #plantparent
