Gardening season approaches!

Caitlin gifted me with a hanging planter for Mother's Day. It's been chilly, so I bring it in at night. 



 Our May long weekend is traditionally the weekend we in southern Ontario plant. Joe and I decided to get started, to beat the rush, and went off to the nursery.


It was lovely and moist inside, a cool 10 ℃ outside. I wore my lovely second hand, thrifted coat. I had compliments at the nursery! Isn't that fun?!


A joy to behold!


All these hobby farms, people are planting. 

I tucked it in the garage until we warm up a bit. Basil, marigold, petunias, some veggies the critters will eat!  A hanging basket of cherry tomatoes, as that's about the only safe thing I can grow. Those critters love the bounty!


This is a Hollyhock. I am hoping Fred won't get this one. She piled dirt up on my last one and it didn't recover. The fuscia the hummingbirds like.
