Spring Bulbs - Sunny Warm Day in the Flower Beds

Hi Friends, 

 I'm so glad your here! Today, 

I'm so excited to share my 'Spring Bulbs',  There are peeking out of the soil! I have spotted a few of the 'Daffodil's' bulbs have buds, 'Tulip' are showing their leaves, I'm so excited! Our Winter has been extremely long.

This past week I've been out in the garden when ever the weather permitted pulling grass and rake-up the straw I spread over all the plants in this flower bed.

 This is a orange 'Poppy' plant in the back will be blooming in June

These 'Tulip bulbs' were a clearance last year around Easter time, the blooms were dying off.  I think I paid $4.00 a flat of 6 pots I bought 3 flats. Not sure what the colors will be, it will be a surprise!

'Grape Hyacinth' are also showing their color.

Today, I was given a couple of dozen, 'Tulip' bulbs from a friend and I added them to the beds on Tuesday.

Their a little droopy, I'm hopping in a day or two they'll perk up. Our temps are still in the low twenty's at night, but day high range from low 50's to high 60's.

 Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to stop by to see what I've been doing this week. 

 I would love to hear what you have been working on this whether it's thrifting, rearranging your vignettes, gardening, sewing or just puttering around your home. 

 So until my next post......

Geranium planted

Hi Friends, 

I'm so glad your here! 

Today, I'm so excited to share how I'm planting Geraniums, I kept over winter in a brown paper bag in the crawl space in my basement for 5 months.

***

The plants still have some green stems, so I'm hoping this project works out.

I found this great information on winterizing Geraniums over at Ready and Thriving Sana M. Carlton a You-Tuber has so many great 'Gardening Hacks' please go check out her You-Tube channel.

My plants seemed a little dry so, I soaked the Geraniums in a bucket of water before planting them in soiled prepared pots.

I just picked-up a bag of 'Potting Mix', from Walmart, prepped my pots.

I planted 5 plants per-pot and we'll see how this project progresses

 Thank you so much for taking time out of your day to stop by to see what I have been doing this week. 

 I would love to hear if you do any gardening or just plant flowers. 

 So until my next post...... 

May God Bless You and Your Family,
