Unwelcome plant

“How much?” the husband asked his wife after discovering a new plant at the porch. “P150.” Then the wife went on to say that it was called “welcome plant” and that it ushers in good luck to those who visit the house, as well as its dwellers. The husband later commented that the plant is actually common and that they had one in his mother’s house. “Gipanglabay ra,” he said.
