June has "busted out all over" and is almost gone. Since I hit my head around the first of June, I cannot remember much about it. Now that I feel a little more connected, I will start my patio plants and décor now, a little late, but it will have to do.
Although a friend took me to Lowe's to buy flowers, etc. during June, I did not buy anything. For me it is hard to understand my attitude, but I did not care about anything, I just wanted to go home. Today, however, I am ready to get with summer and that is wonderful.
I am probably too late to do tomatoes, etc., but I can do plants. And I need to do that, since I have more dead ones than live ones. I almost lost my big ferns, that in past year - I divided in the spring and gave the portions to friends. Today they are barely hanging on. Just need lots of water and I have been giving them a drink every AM and PM. Keep your fingers crossed. I have had them for over 5 years and have, as I said, divided and given so many away.
Oh, that winter debris of a neglected porch is really bothering me. And all those empty tables and plant stands, too. I cannot go by myself, yet - I have to have a friend drive me until I have no more dizzy spells. I am getting better every day. This post proves it. I am actually looking forward to something.
I can order soil, fertilizer, and plant food on line, but I will have to take a "good" day and go in person to pick out my plants. Believe it or not, but I buy the quick sale plants that are dying and bring them back. That is because it appears I have inherited my mother's green thumb.
So I will leave you to make my plans and arrange a trip to the nursey.
