@CooperationIsKey: succulents are so finnicky ime... but my cacti were doing fine for years before I moved. I hope they still are ;v;

@CooperationIsKey: That's sad. I hate to leave a plant anyway, but even more so if it has special meaning like that. :/
I had no room in the car and left them in my grandma's care. Told her how I care for them, but her track record with plants is even worse than mine. She said she'd bring them whenever she and her friend come for a visit, but no telling how they'll hold up in the meantime or if she'll even actually do it. So we'll see. I at least want my "big" cactus; I got it when I got my first job and it's held on since then.

@CooperationIsKey: I know, I get upset when anything goes wrong with mine. But she'd be the kind of person to say "It's just an animal", never mind a plant, so I've been afraid to ask about it... at least they are relatively inexpensive though.
