Here is my Card again!
I do like the Color Challenge…took my out of my comfort zone, but I like
how it turned out!
As you read this…I will be out-of-town again, to pick up more plants for the Garden
Club’s Annual Plant Sale…When last up there, they told us that the items we were looking
for, would be there by Saturday! So away we go!
Yesterday was re-potting all that we bought…
…and then another repotting of those items! Some time next week.
If we only get a few items…then the Committee head and I will repot what we bring
back…if it is a car load…then we will call the troops in for the repotting again!
Because of all this ‘Spring Stuff’…Mr. Hubster and I decided to get our deck ready for
container gardening too! We bought a trough looking bench to grow some of our salad
veggies…We then had to put it together…I also have large pots for the other veggies to
plant too! I think I am going to get several more large pots for the squash we want
to try to grow too! We found out that we can do 2 growing cycles here!
So I can reseed and have a bumper crop before the Winter! I am excited about
trying to do that! I hope I get back early enough today to work on another card for
another Challenge or two…if not…please understand why I have been MIA for a couple
of days…It is hard not to get bitten by the ‘Spring Bug’! What I planted also
is strong to survive a frost, should one appear before mid April! I also have
covering for the ‘trough’!
Until the next Post…Blessings and happy planting to you ALL!
