Progress

These pictures were taken at the Yard Garden and Patio Show. Isn't it amazing what people can do with flowers!? I thought this was so beautiful. I'm not sure which local nursery it was that put it together but one of the ones around here. I am just so impressed how creative people can be.




The petunias in the hanging baskets are growing fast! They will fill the top of the basket before I know it. I still have them sitting on benches so I can be careful on my watering. Once the roots have filled more of the pot (which I think should be soon), I will hang them up and use the drip. Before I hang them, I will give them a trim so I get more branching of the plant.

I think it will take some trial and error to decide how I will use the drip...amounts of water, frequency, etc. I still need to buy a clock, so I can have the drip irrigation go on and off automatically. Need to get that done in the next 2 weeks! Soon I will have more cuttings come and I will need all the table space I can get for the 4" pots!!!

Newly transplanted Snapdragons and Gaillardia Mesa Yellow. I never did show a picture of them growing on the heating mat in the propagation tray but if you look at my old posts from last year, it's the same idea.


Also I have terracotta color hanging baskets. When I first picked the mocha basket color, I really thought I would like the mocha color better, but I think the green plants with the terracotta color have a beautiful contrast. I think the terracotta has won me over! :) Mocha will probably more easily go with any house color though. Guess it's your choice what you will like best! :)

We just tore out a cement loading dock here. All the gravel, plus the old rusty bicycle were inside of it! We are thinking we may build a greenhouse here sometime and use it to sell out of. We'll see what the future holds! :)

And this below is just a picture of the flowers in front of our office. It just cheers me up whenever I walk by. I love color!

Anyway, if there is any questions you have, feel free to leave a comment. It's always fun knowing there is people reading the blog!

Hope you are all enjoying the daffodils and tulips!
