Wow, it's been over a month since my last entry! It's been a wild one ... more storms, lots of rain, and a few new plants.

 Got a mixed hanging planter with some daisy like flowers, wave petunias, and another viney looking plant that I can't remember the name of. Transplanted them fromt he hanging pot to a large planter, since right now I have no place to hang a plant. Also got some free coreopsis from a neighbor who was thinning out her plants. They look kind of pathetic right now, and may not make it, but at least they were free. This weekend I"m probably getting a potted braided trunk hibiscus tree ... haven't decided on color yet, but I was kind of partial to the deep coral colored one.

One of Rick's flying buddies had him over there to fix a computer. The guy's wife offered Rick some rose bush rootings. Rick told her he needed to check with me first to see if I could grown them in a container. Well, after looking on the forums here turns out yes, I can grow them in a container ... so I should be getting an orange rose bush rooting soon too.

Left my seed feeder up because I'd rather see the birds eat it than the mice ... the birds emptied the feeder soon enough but because of the weather ... and the fact that I'm lazy ... the empty feeder sat for a while ... the other day I had a cardinal land on the empty feeder, then look in the door and chirp as to say "Hey! What's up with this!" So I've got an open feeder with sunflower seeds out there now ... but the cheeky little thing seems to be camera shy ... every time I lift the camera he flies away.

Hopefully tomorrow is nice for a change and I can get some of my flower seeds finally planted.
