Bought this "little fellow" from Chinatown during the CNY festive period in January. It was being sold at 3 for $10, but I decided to buy just one and it cost me $4. The Chinese dislikes the number "4" as it rhymes with the word "dead" in Mandarin and hence, it's inauspicious. Last year, the geomancer said "4" is my lucky number, so I took it nevertheless.It's supposed to bring in wealth and fortune for the owner, as it signifies prosperity which the stall holder explained.
It was first soaked in water for 4 hours on 30 Jan. As expected, the first sprout emerged on the 3rd day.
Sad to say, not much care was given since and the "hair" was kind of messy now. I wondered if that's the reason for me not striking the Toto in that $10 Million Draw last Thursday... =(

The plant seems like its dying...so ke lian
Yeah, it's dying... =(
Either the stall owner lied to me about it being able to last 3 months (only a month now), or that I have neglected the plant causing its "death"... ='(
It's turning yellowish brown... This usually means a lack of sunlight or fertiliser, and normally the yellowish brown is from the top down. But this one, it's from bottom up.
The soil! What's wrong with the soil?! Pay your last respect to the plant soon... ='(
