Days 68-69

Morning glory sprouts

OK, it is becoming crowded in here!  I had to move my upside-down tomato and 2 peppers inside due to the cold front.  It will be in the 50s til Wednesday.



More morning glories sprouting up!  I've already moved a little morning glory sprout pod outside to start climbing the front wall.  I just hope they can stand the FL heat!


Cute little tomato

I am just guessing it's days 68-69.  I feel like maybe I forget to take a picture here & there.  Not sure though.  Lots of gardening projects are beginning outside.  Bf and I removed all the old mulch from the flower beds and they are now ready to be planted or spruced up again.  Boy was that a task!  I had to take care to not destroy the perennials coming up.

Today I fertilized everything - all flowers, shrubs and citrus trees.

I decided I was going to make a list of everything I want to do outside (landscaping).  I decided to do this by project (usually each project consists of 1 flowerbed, or potting up stuff.  Sometimes relocating plants the previous owner put in).  I ended up with about 12 projects!  Is this obsessive?  We just moved into this house last year at the end of the growing season, so I did not get to do all the stuff I wanted to then.  Also I am discovering what types of plants are already here due to springtime blossoms, etc.

I have no idea if I'll get all my little projects done or if some will have to wait til next season (mostly due to cost - gardening is expensive!).
