Cutting the coco-mat to fit a heart-shaped wire basket that I have had for over ten years...
filling the hanging baskets with beautiful potting soil...
tease the roots of your flowers before planting them...
Plant your new annuals in an "X" or cross shape, three across, three down. They look sparse now, but this will fill in and spill over beautifully in a matter of a few weeks. This year, I chose red wave petunia and red verbena, both have a draping, hanging habit.
One of the finished baskets, in its usual spring and summer home.
some of the ingredients to home made chicken lo mein...
pasta on the left, boneless chicken in the wok, with coarse salt, soy, and believe it or not, a couple of teaspoons of brown gravy mix, and of course a bit of minced ginger...
a typical evening here...
Enjoy your weekend, friends. Mine is already shaping up to be most lovely. Absolutely got to get the pole bean seeds planted this weekend, and also need to get the usual impatiens stuffed in the pockets of my heirloom terra cotta strawberry pot. This year, I chose white rather than the usual reddish-salmon color. The contrast of the white on the terra cotta will be gorgeous. It is the little things in life that bliss me out.
Stay tuned, because I will have a special surprise announcement coming on Monday!
