I seriously wish we had dandelions here. They seem like so much fun. Wishing and salads and flower crowns. Fun!! I have been doing well. Busy as hell. The end of the school year is kicking my butt. But I wouldn't wish it to go by any faster than it already is. Hope you are well!!TheRedolentMermaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12025330454820306972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-60144683110246753602021-05-03T22:10:45.130-04:002021-05-03T22:10:45.130-04:00We do mostly raised beds for everything.

It's lovely seeing new growth finally. Winter seems to last for forever. :/<br />Hope you've been enjoying and doing well. Gotta go comment on your Ebb & Flow post. ;) Aprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05456321651492337696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-44485176827381756692021-05-02T20:23:31.042-04:002021-05-02T20:23:31.042-04:00Thank you!

Poor kiddos. <br /><br />Fun! Do you guys plant directly in the ground or use raised beds? <br /><br />I LOVE hydrangeas too. I have tried a few but I end up killing them. So I have resorted to our Florida native, Oakleaf Hydrangea. I bought two and so far they have not died, which is already a win. I am a sucker for the teeny tiny fairy like flowers too. The first photo up top is of my current tiny fave: Dahlberg Daisy. They are teeny with feathery leaves, so delicate but springy and perky. <br /><br />Ah! Yeah. My handwriting isn't the best regularly but sometimes I can fancy it up if I take my time. But no one can read it. <br /><br />Thank you! I hope you have had a nice weekend and start to May. Planting SOOOOOON!!!TheRedolentMermaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12025330454820306972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2810618299009561680.post-24456913836326579872021-04-22T12:39:53.578-04:002021-04-22T12:39:53.578-04:00I hope the rest of the school year goes well for y...I hope the rest of the school year goes well for you. :)<br />My husband has seedlings going in the living room, under grow lights. I think we're safe to plant in the ground like the second week of May or so??<br />I definitely love seeing big blooming bushes of giant ball like flowers such as hydrangeas. Anything kinda exotic, different, unique looking for flowers always mesmerizes me.. any tiny little fairie-esque type of flowers move me. Lilacs, bleeding hearts, lily of the valley. <br />I do not journal. I hate writing, I hate my handwriting. Lol I really should learn some calligraphy or something.. lol<br />Happy almost weekend!! Hope you enjoy. <3Aprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05456321651492337696noreply@blogger.com
