A glorious spring day to be blessed with, and I am thankful. Getting my little patio prepared for sitting and enjoying. I splurged and purchased some potting soil and 2 plants to get me started for summer. The Dianthus and miniature snapdragons are hardy and heat resistant, and what I have planned for my pots this summer.(and cheap!) I used dollar store seeds for my big pot, Impatiens, and I will wait to see what sprouts. If they fail (which I hope they do not) I will find a suitably cheap replacement. I did find a week ago some hangers, and I am considering what sort of plants I will be using. Dollar store again, the three of them cost me $3. I will need to enlist Julie and her mighty drill to get them up.
My one veggie plant this summer will be a hanging cherry tomato. That was purchased for a school booster from someone at work. Not sure when it will arrive. It is likely that they will not send it out until the threat of cooler weather is over. Ha! Cooler weather. This has been the warmest east coast winter I have ever experienced. That sort of makes me leery regarding summertime, and that is a wait and see.
I still miss my spring bulbs, someone else is enjoying my efforts now. I never even got to see them bloom.
Again it is a 'someday' sort of thing, someday being when I can actually have a real garden again and not just pots and hanging plants. Where and when that will be is the Million dollar question. But I live in hope that I will have a place to play in the dirt once again.
I hope that everyone is enjoying this day as much as I am. Happy Springtime to All.
