Honeysuckle Thinks It's Spring
I thought this plant wouldn't make it through the year. Now it is trying to bloom. Poor thing. I wish I had a better home for it than this pot.

Giant Cactus Came Tumbling Down

It's Been A While...
I'm renting out my house and I have moved out to my RV which sits on a couple of cactus filled acres. Not much will grow out here that isn't extremely tough and prickly. I brought a few pots from my house and they are spending the winter in the greenhouse. Last year I planted some seeds in the giant bathtub pot but when the summer came, it got so hot in there that I tried to transplant the poor things in to pots and put them outside. That didn't work very well either. The few things that did survive the heat eventually succumbed to hungry varmits.
Today I planted some beans and sunflowers. Those are the only seeds that I had besides ornamental flowers. I don't want to plant too many things this year because I don't have a protected spot for them yet. My strawberry is stil growing as well as a honeysuckle, yellow and red bird of paradise, and a baby fairy duster.
