Hi Juan,
Mylot has those little problems all the time.
Nice to know you are doing something for the environment. Planting 3 plants is great. Hope They will grow and you will plant many more in the future.
I have planted a couple of small plants on the small patch of land we have in front of our house. It was nice experience. It was just something I felt like doing that particular day. It has been almost a year now. The good thing is that both the plants survived and have now grown quite a bit.

I have taught in colleges for over 45 years, i always made it a point to observe 'Foundation day' of that college as 'Tree planbtation day', by staff and college, may be in college campus or outskirts at the place.
You are doing a nice job.
Thanks for sharing
Cheers.
God bless you, have a nice day ahead.

Wow! That's a very good action of you and your office mates! Yes, Ive planted several trees during my whole lifetime but I couldn't continue doing so for we have little space plant trees. I am a huge fan of mother nature and I do love to buy plants because it makes me happy seeing them. Plants and trees are not only beautifying our environment but also protects our soils and mountains from erosion. Planting trees gave human kind lots of advantage and you're so lucky being one of the protectress of mother nature. I do love to participate in tree planting activities too. Hope that I could be able to do so in the near future. Have a nice day ahead!

I have planted two. One as a requirement when I was in grade school, the second one as a requirement in highschool
I have this desire to take care of the environment but I have never voluntarily done tree planting. It's good that you and your co-workers have such an activity.
Cheers!

Once we had a little project when I was going to school when we planted a tree. It is really tedious work in those stages when it first grows. Still it was an interesting experience. It didn't grow that far, but that was more because there was really no room to put it in my backyard when I took it home.

Well a long time ago when I was in elementary school our class planted trees in a nature park.I go to see the tree I planted a few times a year to see how its growing and doing.I really think that schools should continue to do this as i think it is a great way to teach kids on how important our forests and trees are for our survival.Without enough trees we would not have enough oxygen to breath ans we would die without them.I plant trees yearly and try to do my part in keeping the habit healthy so our future generation will have a good quality of life to look forward to.
