A while ago, I told you that I was going to be making a little garden using re-purposed items. And yesterday, I showed you some things I found at the thrift store for that garden. Yesterday I also went to the local gardening store and got a few plants to start off with. Our weather forecast for today is for thunderstorms, and I have something planned to do for tomorrow, so I will be putting these plants in the soil on Sunday. I am so excited to be getting started, even if I have to wait a couple more weeks to plant more stuff.
Begonias, oh my word! can you believe how huge those blooms are?
I love Cosmos, and Fabgrandpa picked out the Marigolds. They are pretty together, right?
You can’t really see the Strawberry plants because the onion sets are on top of them. There are also Sweet Peppers and Broccoli plants. That is a good start I think.
I’m excited about your garden as I know how much you’ve wanted one. In one area we drove in South Africa the road was lined with zillions of beautiful pink and white cosmos.
Glad you have shared this gardening experience with us. I love to see flowers in yards and I myself have planted a few things such as raspberry bushes.
These are just gorgeous! You are so blessed to be able to grow flowers and food. We live in an apartment, and even though we have a terrace, it’s a northwest exposure and only gets about 15 minutes of sun, just as it sets. So I will enjoy your pictures! Thanks for posting them!
These are beautiful. I just started a garden this year. Made some mistakes but it is a learning experience. It is very enjoyable.
so beautiful I will start soon
These photos are so uplifting. I take nature photos so this made my day.
I think that the flowers are so beautiful. This is so great for beautifying the summertime.
The begonias are absolutely gorgeous. I love them. I haven’t tried growing broccoli yet. That may be my next new veggie to grow.
So pretty! I love repurposing, especially when it involves flowers.
