    If you took one of the leaves of the plant before you would sow it. It would not grow because the fairies would take away the luck.
    If you put egg shells to a plant the fairies would add more plants every night and an egg-shell to each one.
    If you plant a lily in a pot and it grows up strong the planter will get delicate.
