    Default My Bargin NOID

    I rarely buy noids anymore but couldn't pass this guy up. I found him at a big box store for $1. I was pleasently suprised when I removed the moss it was planted in to find all roots healthy and no signs of rot. It had been planted in a pot with no drainage and the moss was soaking wet. The spike has been removed now to let all energy go to the plant.
