As Seen At The Garden Center

 















I bet most of you know what this last plant is. The sign on it said "Little Pot Of Horrors!"

Very pretty. Whatever that braided thing is, it's very unique looking. My boss had one of the "little pot of horrors" on his desk for a long time. Don't know if his son still has it there or not.

Someone has a good sense of humor with the 'little shop' sign. Like Sandra, I find the interwoven plant fascinating. It must have taken a lot of time and patience. I am not sure I have that with plants but I greatly admire those who do - the results are impressive. Lovely photos of all the flowers, those trailing over the balcony and the garden art too. The one you chose as a header is stunning. I am trying to catch up now after my bout with Covid. Still not 100 percent but getting there :) Thank you for all the thoughtful comments Ginny, very much appreciated.

Doggone it I meant to add, the last plant is a venus fly trap. They are awesome! Makes me think of the Addams Family.

All the plants are so pretty and colorful. Like most others I love the braided plant. I also love all the pink blooms on the house. I can't even imagine getting anything to grow that perfect.

That one plant is so interesting - looks like a BRAID! The colorful metal flowers would be nice to put in a garden. And the purple flowers are gorgeous. Isn't that last plant strange looking? Always a pleasure to see the goodies at the garden center when you visit.

The Venus Fly Trap is always a winner but I love the hot pink flowers in the third photo from the top! I have no idea what they are but they are shaped like butterflies. xoxo

Into the Green

  While making a trip over Afton Mountain for a doctor appointment, I was fascinated by the beautiful green. The way the sun was shining on ...
