I used to love rescuing plants. There was a sad dusty indoor cactus left behind by a previous tenant so I adopted it, took it with me when I moved and just left it outside in sun and rain. It’s still alive after more than 10 years. Started flowering and fruiting which means they’re happy.

Lucky cactus. The supermarkets used to sell plants, and of course they didn't care for them a all so they would get marked down to almost nothing once they started to die. I got a lot of cheap miniature roses that way.
