Foxy Lady: yes Ma'am - spider plants. the hanging plants with the cascading leaves and the tendrils that send off more little spiders...they can reach from the ceiling to the floor, kind of like weeping willows for the indoors. :)

Foxy Lady: yep, same here Ma'am - or it was the same here during the day (it's nighty-night now). we were supposed to have rain...well, in the afternoon, and it did cloud up and sprinkle just a teensy bit - misting, really - very briefly after dark. but i went shooting with a photography group today and it was sunny and beautiful the whole while!

What is the difference between a gardenia plant and gardenia bush? I received a plant for Mother's Day and wondered if I should plant it outdoors!

Foxy Lady:

You are right...today we had a surprise visit of the sun. I was able to plant up some things in my mother-in-law's garden in between showers. Lucky!
And she loved it. I pulled out 3 overgrown rose bushes and transplanted them for her to another area. Then I put in 3 trellises with clematis, along with blue salvia, rose pentas, tricolor sweet potatoe vine, pink shades gazania and white sweet alyssum. It's going to be very pretty for her all summer

Happy Mother's Day to all the mommies!

Just in time for Mother's day and planting season, those of us in the northeast are looking forward to over a week of rain.
I really dislike gardening in the rain...but, the plants actually love it. In fact, optimum conditions for planting anything is during cloudy weather. There is less shock to the plant when the skies are grey.

Subject: Did anyone plant this weekend?
I broke my own rule because the weather has been mild
I have planted verbena, begonias, osteospermum, diascia, geraniums, lobelia, ageratum, nierembergia, scavoela, alyssum, browalia, coleous and dusty miller.

I don't forcee another freeze here in NY and the plants have been hardened off enough they should be ready.

Yet to plant: Gazanias, madevilla, wave petunias
They're a little more tender

So how does your garden grow?

My grandpaents took me to the NY Worlds Fair in 1964, and Disney had an exhibit of It's a Small World... with the boats and singing figures from all over the world. It was so enchanting when I was 8 and my grandmother loved it too!

We were all so innocent and secure back then...I guess

When I was at Disneyworld 10 years ago they had a tour through a gigantic greenhouse where everything was growing in water. I wonder if it's still there.
