I put coffee grounds on my azaleas yesterday. They love acid.

There was a regional science fair for high school students in my area, and the winning entry found that coffee grounds alone produce better growth in plants than a placebo, fertilizer, or a mixture of both coffee grounds and fertilizer.

We'll see!

Thank you.

OK, the snapdragons are planted (ignore the petunia at the back...I broke it off by accident and couldn't throw it out. I know it won't grow....)

And the cute little coloured flowers: I don't know their name...





And I think I showed you guys this one...not sure....but the lantern is new.

Thank you baby ~ so much of it is trial and error. The plants that is.
I get a lot of it wrong. Some plants are doing awesomely and some are struggling. They all need patience and love.....just as I do.

I am not feeling well and I am unable to find my usual pep.

Nick is wonderful....loving, kind and patient always, but I am just so disappointed in myself right now.

I am not sure why I am being so hard on myself....I am nowhere near as compassionate with myself that I am with others. At the moment in any case.

Hmm.

Nick and I had a very big day yesterday ~ some very serious stuff that needed to be taken care of. And we did it together. And came out stronger than ever.

And of course after the hard stuff I always want to celebrate our achievements, and I do it with plants.
And I do it with Nick's blessing ~ he shares every bit of my joy.
We sat on our swing last night and enjoyed what is becoming our lovely garden.

Here are the new guys....
