The Good Nurse - - Hydrangea Live On

April 29th was my post via WET NURSING -- in-ground planting of last years two Hydranges potted plants!!


So... I've gently talked and prayed and smiled at the two heaps of soil and weed-looking brown stubs..
EAST SIDE FRONT GARDEN . . .


WEST CORNER OF FRONT YARD....  AND FOR THIS ONE I REALLY HAD MY DOUBTS,   IT LOOKED DRYER AND LIFELESS.



TODAY IS MAY 14TH...........   AND A SLIGHT FREEZE EARLIER MONTH....
BUT HERE'S TO MY BABIES

Yard Watching Every Day.....Perennial Break-Thru's

It's been a bit cool --- feels like it at even 55 degrees. There was a bit of rain earlier this week.   But the sun is shining.... and I'm stooping over looking at shoots of Lillies, hydrangeas and hostas that are just a 1" to 2" jutting thru the soil.

Oh... again..... my first purple IRIS bloomed outside my bedroom window....WOW.  The first and only multiple bloom in the back yard!



and Lest I forget..... the original rose bush looks gorgeous.... the two mini's I planted last year are full and ready to go!    There is a tiny survivor.......   There is also a slow-death that seems destined to clearance!!!!   Weep-weep

The Glorious ~ ~ Bradford Pear Tree


Wet Nursing my Hydrangeas

Yep... fearfully and always hoping.... I purchased these hydrangea plants and for two years I've grown them in pots.   They did excitedly rebloom last year.   Then they sat -covered - on the front porch kinda sheltered from the severe winter cold.

So, to my delight..... One pot showed the beautiful tiny green shoots peeking thru.   The other (I supposed both were dead).... the other pot is just sitting looking dry and brown.    But never feat...

I've taken the brave step to PUT THEM IN THE GROUND!!!!!   And yes, the green shoots are growing  day by day!!!


Time will tell!!!


Poking Thru ~ West-side House-Front

Last year......   Hosta's were planted here on the western 

front of my house...  at least I think and I remember......    My oh my.... I' just excited!!!  

I think of the Mighty Father residing in heaven..... orchestrating all of His creations....  down to this smallest peeking thru the soil --- plant life!!!      3-4th week March 2018!
