Low Water succulent ideas

 

Balcony Garden Plans

Warm weather and my move to tiny digs has me planning

with new seed catalogues at night and creative ideas

for a balcony garden as I no longer have 400 acres.

Finding myself with dreams that need vertical structures,

hangers from ceilings and methods to water overhead.

Flowers, herbs, and a vegetable treasures in the drawings. 

The hanging moss pots from the ranch didn't travel well, as

the Bond Fire worried me about a second evacuation I moved

immediately. They got bumped up. I hesitate to repeat purchase

ones at the garden supply. 

In my bedroom sunny window a hundred seedlings 

popped up to reach for the light, making me happy. 

I'm painting at night, volunteered this weekend, took care

of my Mom, talked with friends on the phone and no TV news.

I'm sharing these photographs of potted flowers to sprinkle the

joy of expecting spring. Even in Southern California we have

cooler nights where seedlings can be bruised if out on my

upstairs balcony. 

Are you eligible to get an appointment for the vaccine?

Call me if you need help.

Much love and health to you.

Miss you.

Proteas from the ranch, will miss them

I know you wouldn't pot hot pink cyclamen with spider plant would you?

not sure these moss baskets will make the test of time
