{I love planting!! I love all the soil & water in my bathtub!!}
{I'm so happy!!! I love gardening!}
{Wait, you want to put WHAT in here?!?! Oh...well can I stay in the tub anyways?}
Good morning! My fervent desire for Spring has me stepping out in dresses & sandals, short sleeves & skirts…and so far I am met with brisk breezy mornings that leave me yearning for tights & a jacket. Usually by the afternoon the sun has appeared, but these mornings are still oh so chilly.
Over the weekend I ordered our tomato bushes & flowers for the bathtub garden. Our backyard is graced by the presence of an antique {i.e. really old & fairly rusty} clawfoot bathtub. After a year of watching it collect rainwater & mosquitos, Jessica decided to turn it into a garden. Tulip thought the planting process was so delightful! Sadly, except for a bumper crop of basil, last year’s vegetable garden didn’t produce much except some non-magic mushrooms. This year, we are trying flowers, primarily roses. I have it on good authority that the roses ordered thrive on direct sunshine & heat, just perfect for our long New Orleans summer. Here’s to a house full of pretty posies!
