I can hardly wait for them to become pretty and lush. It seems they will be getting a bit of a chill for a few nights.Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10535622044396271722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-75994626282386487762012-04-22T15:26:50.521-04:002012-04-22T15:26:50.521-04:00Well dear Mar, my plants in the pond out front wer...Well dear Mar, my plants in the pond out front were eaten by a lovely young deer this morning.

We never did find it, but I'll try again this week! I am making a mental note to see if the hummingbirds show up in our area on May 2-someone told me that is when they always appear here. Isn't that the neatest thing?Susan Shullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10035270581759561020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-73696807724845349132012-04-22T06:16:00.458-04:002012-04-22T06:16:00.458-04:00You must have a better climate than here - too ear...You must have a better climate than here - too early yet for putting things like petunias and snapdragons out.

This one is lovely and by the time things mature this box will be spilling over with lush blooms. I've bought some plants this spring and off to the garden center tomorrow to get more. I've not noticed that things are priced differently this year, but I often shop Lowe's and Home Depot for plants. I frequently find plants on the reduced section that are perfectly fine, they just need to get them sold because of new shipments arriving. Love your choices. I grow many of the same.<br />Thinking of you enjoying being in your garden after your fabulous trip. ;-)<br />~ SarahSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01873375271470225199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-58372905903546271552012-04-21T22:18:15.671-04:002012-04-21T22:18:15.671-04:00I haven't bought anything yet this year - just...I haven't bought anything yet this year - just pansies and primulas in the winter.<br />I love, love, love heliotrope and can't wait to plant some near my chair on the patio.Pondsidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02407539138546412482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-19025984598089671932012-04-21T21:17:46.482-04:002012-04-21T21:17:46.482-04:00I'm still waiting for the warmer weather so I ...I'm still waiting for the warmer weather so I haven't checked out any plants as of yet. I do know my flowers are much less expensive in Michigan than Chicago...maybe since we are in the country there?? Not sure. But you can guess where I buy a majority of my plants!<br /><br />Your flower box looks wonderful...be sure to show us a picture when it is filled out. I'd love to have one at my kitchen window but it is so high up, watering would be difficult, if impossible. LOVE that little butterfly. Does heliotrope go by another name...it sounds so familiar.<br /><br />Did you know we will be in Asheville next month? It is a distance from Raleigh but wouldn't it be lovely to meet perhaps halfway? Let me have your thoughts. Meeting up with Penny and Penny for some shopping and lunch!<br /><br />Happy Saturday, Mary!<br /><br />XO,<br />JaneBlondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.com
