I forgot about this little bit of Magic



Category: Work in the garden | Posted: Fri Jun 22, 2007 1:23 am

Can you see her?
Way down in there?
The bit of pink?


This is Gillyweed

I got this plant 3 years ago, in honor of Harry Potter. Its a big part of the book 'Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire'. This Gillyweed variety will not help me grow gills and fins and swim underwater for great amounts of time...but I like it nonetheless.

I forgot all about the Gillyweed. The Stella D'Oro Daylilies didn't get divided, and neither did the 'Moonbeam' Coreopsis. They both magically grew to proportions big enough to cover my poor little Gillyweed.

I found the little gal today while weeding, taking some pictures, and running from H while he was watering his Mom...I mean watering for his Mom.

She had no care. No trimming. Practically no light. But there she was...just like magic.
