Header Challenge






Oldest Medium Kid and I worked in the gardens all day today. Ran in to do this post and then I'm headed back outside. Remember the Spider/Airplane plants ya'll helped me ID?

My gardens are growing pretty well considering the heat, humidity and neglect. BUT, every now and again I have to bring in the big guns! That's how my gardens grow....

Please visit the other team members listed in my sidebar to see how their gardens grow.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Today I am Thankful for this weekly challenge...!!

I like that grass in the pot. Wish I could do that here without having to worry about overwintering it.

Growing nicely I would say! The chair addition now looks as though it has been there for a while. Looks wonderful with the mulch and spider plants in place....

Today I am thankful for the gentle blowing of the wind as it has my flowers dancing :-)

It's amazing that your new bed is already starting to look like it was always there. That's awesome!

I like your header, which hints at all the work needed to help your garden grow. The pictures show that it is growing very well indeed.

I'm trying this again. Your new header photo was a good choice. Love how lush your garden looks this summer. :)

Kimberly said...

I like the tools and the caption! I have the same spider plants...they grow like a weed! They're wonderful where nothing else will grow (ie a planter I have on the fence facing the HOT afternoon sun). Your garden is beautiful!

NanaK said...

Your gardens are growing well indeed. Love the red buckets for your spider plants along with the red chair. That new bed is really filling in and looking wonderful.

Yes, I know. I hate it, but occasionally I have to bring out the big guns, too.
