Gardening Success

Love our neighbors use of containers. It has been really dry this summer. Watering in one hundred degree heat is not much fun. So this is a fun idea to use a lot less to water and spray painting inexpensive metal buckets give a splash of color.


Cletus planted these interesting succulent plants. They have taken off and are starting down the stairs. Love the tiny red flowers. Almost cactus like.

Beautimous!

A beautimous gift from a dear friend!

It is finally Spring in the South and everything is in bloom:

I love irises...they remind me of my mom, especially purple ones.


From Cletus for Easter...another knockout rose...



and a Saucer Magnolia!

Thanks to Cletus' faithful watering these are alive and blooming:

Hibiscus

I just love our hibiscus. Many thanks to Cletus' work friend. When we moved in she gave us a truck load of plants, including about twenty hosta plants and four hibiscus.
