Just another day in the garden
Category: My garden | Posted: Sun May 20, 2007 3:42 am I found some really good dirt that I had accidentally found when i pulled up a dead stump. I had planted a few little bushes last year but they didnt survive. (what a suprise) lol So, I took the potting soil from it and sprinkled it in my garden in the low spot and planted the Danish Cross Seeds that Bsewnsew sent me. Now, maybe they wont drown. I havent put all of them down since I dont want to use them all up so i can keep trying if i fail more than a few times LOL. I also planted a few more Cactus Zinias and asther. now that the dog cant get in the flower bed, I think the seeds have a 50% chance of living LOL This blog entry has been viewed 124 times
Dog Gone it!!! GRRRRrrr
Category: My garden | Posted: Wed May 16, 2007 10:05 pm What was to be another just fine day starts out to me having to unburry another set of rose moss... replant what tiny seedling cosmos that were growing and uncover yet another stepping stone that was covered in what my dog thought was a nice bed! SOOO I did what i wasnt wanting to do. I put up the hot wire. OUCH! It wasnt even all hooked up yet and i got shocked... then i was uncovering yet what i thought was a rose moss which turned out to be only a stem of broken rose moss. I thought Dogs were supose to be peoples best friends! lol. Anyone want a golden retriever?!?! Anyways, now if only my 2 year old will stay away from it. And, while im pulling weeds etc, I will not get shocked! maybe I'll go find some cattle panals cheap some day and place them in front where the dog cant get to them. Oh, I think i also have a trumpet vine sprouting!! And, i got a few wisteria, and honey suckle cuttings and also a sage plant all planted. yay! This blog entry has been viewed 153 times
what a bummer
Category: My garden | Posted: Tue May 15, 2007 3:05 am Well, This weekend we stayed at my parents so we could stay close to the city and work on S-In-Laws house ... had to leave my pretty flowers and newly growing seeds that i planted. We got home late last night so i just fed the dogs not thinking about my flowers. I got up this morning to go water them and boy was i mad again! That darn lil bailey got (or should isay big) decided she was hot and needed a cool spot in the cool dirt AGAIN! I havent had the time to put any fence around it yet. So, all i could do was put my baby dianthis plant back in its new /old spot and uncover my 2 or three rose moss plants and rewater them. I was lucky i even found my broken stepping stone under the dirt. My jasmine that i had just planted recently was fortunate to get only a few little leaves pulled off. Unfortunately, my rose (whose name tag i found and wouldnt of found except for the dog digging showed up so I now know its a "Sacred heart rose' and not fragrent cloud. ) anyways, the rose lost a tall fresh newly growing stem broken off. So, now its down to a small bush at the bottom and 1 1-2foot stem ! ): Well, so some of the seeds that i tried planting are now probasbly lost forever. Ill have to replant them. But im going to wait i guess til i get something put up. Anyways, who knows what tomorrow will bring when I wake up . Hopefully some smiling flowers and another leaf on my clematis (: Its up to about 2-3 inches tall now and has i think 4 small leaves on it. lol all the 4 leaves put together are still no bigger than my pinky nail but its alot faster growing than last time! I did SOMETHING right Lol. This blog entry has been viewed 138 times
I grew something! Lol
Category: My garden | Posted: Sat May 12, 2007 3:47 am Well, Ive never really written a blog before.. so here is a bit i suppose.. Well, I got most the seeds that i have planted! I started last monday with the seeds.. I planted some Zineas, spanish rose moss, pink globe anthums, more zineas and I found some old trumpet vine seeds.. I planted on Tuesday and Wednesday my seeds from Bsewnsew and Bethie Thanks friends!! and Guess what!! I have 2-3 sprouts of cosmos coming up!!! How excited I got when i was pulling out baby trees and i glanced down to see something different! Woohoo!! I still have a little of each type of seeds that they gave me to sew but not sure when that is going to happen. Maybe next week. I have to find some potting soil etc. I also started my first real compost pile!! I had been thinking about it a while back, but just didnt know how to get started. My sister bought some "Oklahoma Gardening' magazines at a garage sale for 3.00! It had 3 subjects that i had been thinking about in those magazines!! Compost, Roses, and Digging pets! (: So, now all i lack is 2 -4 more wooden pallets so i can finish the compost compartment! (: Well, thats all I guess I'll write for now! I'd share pics but theres none to really share right now (; Thanks for reading. Ill keep you posted! (: This blog entry has been viewed 182 times
