Earth Day 2019

Today was a great day to clean out the greenhouse and clean the Plexiglass from all the sap, needles and pollen coming out of my neighbor's tree.  Twice a year we have to clean it to keep it looking great.

Once every is out then I can use a little bleach water to wash down the walls inside and out.
This year I decided to move the shelves from the back wall to the east wall, then move the rain barrel and the smaller half barrels.  If I don't like it then next year I'll move it back.  Change is a good thing!  Next is putting new plastic on the shelves and moving the plants back.  Then I can start the new brugmansia seeds in the pop bottles.  We have 8 seedpods from last year. 

I also started cleaning out the rain barrels,  4 done out of the 13 we have here. 

April 20, 2019 Can't You Read??

Yesterday afternoon we had a man show up at our door, he stated he was in the area spraying for ants
and wanted to know if we needed his service.   My dear husband asked him if he could read?  He blew past three signs to come to our door.  The man stated he was to busy looking at our yard but no excuse!!  If you don't have an appointment don't come to our door!!!    Plus, do you think we have ants with how our yard looks?  You are wasting our time as we know what we are doing here!  NO ANTS!!    Ya just make yourself look bad and if you are treating our neighbors properties, don't bother us!!   Oh yes, we have seen the trucks in the hood and we truly know why you are here.....look how they keep their yards!!! 

It's as good as one of our neighbors using spray just minutes before their Easter company arrives??

Ya know you can't fix stupidity!!!

April 21, 2019 Let the Blooming Begin!

All our hard work is starting to pay off!!  We are seeing the yard come to life and
flowers are starting to bloom!  Here is some early photos of what we see in bloom.

This past week we were able to get the brugmansia in their summer place, will move them if 

they are in the wrong place.  Moving them in the rain isn't a wise move!!  But they are done and the Eppie cactus are all hung in their summer home.
