walked over to Ultracuts for a trim and on the way spotted a plant that had not been put into the soil in one of the big city planters…

I didn’t want to arrive at the salon with dirty hands so I decided to wait until I was on the way home…

when I did arrive back at the planter, it was clear that the plant had not been planted as it was just laying on the soil… I had wondered if a critter had maybe pulled it out of its spot…

I dug a hole and popped it in… hope it is happy now…

Saturday’s project was to transplant the lemon tree and the fern…

had to run out to the garage to get gloves and into the basement for a pail and spoon, lol…

after a bit of digging and mess-making the two plants were in their new pots, trimmed, fertilized, and watered…

the fern was absolutely jammed into the pot and took quite a bit of work to get it thinned out, cut back and set into its new home…

it was much simpler to put the lemon tree into the larger pot and add some soil… it looks good;-)… I cannot remember when I started this, maybe this spring or last spring, lol…

hopefully they will both thrive…

Tuesday I found a rope and attached it to the biggest pot under the far side of the deck… previously it had been on the main deck… I was able to pull it out and then drag it all the way around to the deck beside the hot tub…

once I got it into its new spot, I set in the large obelisk and then planted many morning glory seeds and one of the dahlias…

put a small pail over the top of the dahlia and hope that protects it from the silly weather, lol…

I think I like it in this new spot and am hoping it will fill up with the morning glories and that the dahlia will grow tall and produce flowers…

on Sunday we took a trip to Safeway to find some spring plants… this is the time of year that I need lots of things blooming around me…

we found individual pots of hyacinth and crocus… then a pot with tulips, daffodils, primrose, and hyacinth in it… I got them all, lol…

I am enjoying watching them as they open and anticipating the scent;-)…
