i really, truly didn’t mean for any of these leaves to fall off the stem. i never do. but two fell off when i was carrying them and getting a franzbrötchen on my way to catch the ubahn this morning and then the rest fell off when i was cleaning them before i scanned them. i always try to clean my leaves before i scan them, for fear of leaving dirt behind on the scanner and potentially scratching the glass. i doubt my office manager would appreciate that.
