On a normal day, Savannah, the 22 year old owner of Easy Little Plants in Olney, teaches workshops, hosts birthday parties, and pots houseplants in repurposed tea cups. However, this was no normal day. Benny, the shop’s axolotl, was getting a friend: another axolotl named Spike! The next day, there were eggs; “I was shocked, but excited at the same time. We thought they were both male.” says Savannah.

Spike, now named Rosie, moved back in with her previous owner, as both caretakers agreed to split and care for the eggs. Savannah is excited to introduce the baby axolotls to anyone who visits Easy Little Plants. “We’re looking for future homes for them, but we’re also enjoying how cute they are!”
