I was pleasantly surprised this morning to find a Light Orange Tulip flower, the only flowering plant on the edge of a small flower bed with a variety of bulbs. So bright and beautiful.
Last Friday we went plant shopping at Lowe’s and purchased a few plants. I love Wisteria and it’s such a beautiful plant, but I am still skeptical about planting one in my yard because of the plant toxicity. I suppose time will tell …
I am growing a few cactuses in pots to transplant in the backyard by the dry creek bed along side a varieties of drought-tolerant ornamental grasses.
I dug out the re-did the flower bed under the living room window to match the one under our bedroom since both face the street. I dug out the Lily of the Nile, split most, transplanted them in the backyard and watered heavily. I am sure they will thrive in their new location which is directly exposed to the sun. I had a bunch of Goodwin Creek Gray Lavender seedlings, which I transplanted into the flower bed.
Now I can move on to the next project.
