I love flowers – planting and feeding them the water for life.
But – I also love making friendships – greeting people with a smile and a hello.
Life is too short – and we are now in the sunset of our own lives.
Our life is a mixture of planting gardens in others’ lives.
Being friends – walking – laughing – sharing thoughts.
The beauty of those plantings is it last and last through time.

The mid-1700s found James Wood laying out the boundaries of Winchester, Va.
Sub-divided into lots with streets – and this estate for himself.
Three springs lay on this property and the land had many natural rock formations and loose rocks.
The rocks were used for boundary lines like fences and the others for foundation work.
Note the stone wall behind her – most likely picked up off the ground and used in the construction.
Then the Pandemic hit and it never came back into the discussion again.
But – I really liked it here and if we came to Florida – this would be my first choice!
in and through the tree branches!

It has been just a little over one month –
since we replanted the Geraniums-
that are now 4 or 5 years old !
For the first time – we have planted Potato’s !
We also have for the second year –
a flower called –
THE EVENING PRIMROSE !
What is unique about that –
is it ONLY BLOOMS AT NIGHT !
The Tower Gardens are now in production for almost 5 weeks.
We have been eating lettuce since the end of week two.
It will not be long as we have flowers for Tomato’s – Squash and Cucumbers
And Egg plant – herbs – other greens.
We have a total of 8 Potato plants –
this is the first time we have ever planted them !
We never had Green Thumbs
until we bought our first Tower Garden eight years ago !
And – really – it is so easy –
just make sure it has WATER & NUTRIENTS!
Now – I have learned – these are her babies –
she is known as the –
TOWER GARDEN QUEEN !
She has quite the following !
And – you can tell by the results –
I in turn – make sure they have WATER –
They have NUTRIENTS and the vines have a place to climb !
Our Geraniums – I pull up in the Fall –
shake the dirt off –
Stick them right side up in a five gallon pail –
and hang them from ceiling in our unheated garage !
In the Spring – we pull them out –
clean the dead leaves off –
And pot them – water them and just watch them come back.
I am in charge of the lawn outside – that is my time to just relax –
I rather like mowing – making it look nice and neat !
We had a irrigation system put in two years ago –
and finally – this year –
It has recovered and grown in nice and green !
I have a lawn service and have lime spread in the Fall.
All in all – growing vegetables – seeing the colors of our flowers –
Is a form of stress relief for me.
If you have any questions on the growing system
or bringing back the Geraniums from year to year –
Feel free to ask.
I hope you enjoyed my little blog –
