So I've been totally obsessed with flowers this year for some reason.
I'm trying a variety of methods this year:
1) Seed
These are currently chillin' in my kitchen. Out of the 20 or seeds that I have planted only a few have sprouted but needless to say I am excited some are still alive and thriving. We shall see if they get big enough for me to transplant outside.
2) Store bought
I got some gerber daisies for mothers day which I promptly embedded in deep rich soil. I'm pretty sure one of the pesky neighborhood kids decapitated one already much to my chagrin.
3) Cut & Delivered
I also received the fancy kind for mother's day delivered. That was nice of him.
This year we also rebuilt our flower beds outside. I've dug up all my daffodils and separated out the bulbs. When they say that bulbs reproduce they're not kidding. I ended up with twice what I started with!
I've been on a flower buying binge. I got some good deals at Sams Club on some perennials so I have quite the assortment going in my front planter. I would post a picture but it pretty much looks like dirt and you all know what that looks like. Hopefully it will bloom as I diagrammed and I can post you a spectacular color filled picture.
My garden is planted also, so I'm on a roll there. I did a couple of different produce this year so again we shall see how it turns out. Once again I would post a pic but it just looks like a plot of dirt also, but a pretty plot of dirt.
Now I have to go wash my green or rather compost covered thumb.
