Hmmm, where to plant this.....

I received a healthy, happy plant. Unfortunately it's still sitting in my 'waiting' area, because I can't find a spot to plant it. Somehow, in January there seemed to be a lot of bare spaces, but now everything is up and growing vigorously, there doesn't appear to be anywhere to put it. I may have to gift this to a friend, which is a shame, but it's my fault, not the plant's. Oh well, whoever I give it to will allow me liberal visiting privileges.
