Good afternoon!
Wow, it's so hard to concentrate on such a sunny, mellow day here in Orlando! Going to keep this short as I have a whole lot of gardening to catch up on...
Here are a few pics from my porch and yard:
 |
Lifesaver Cactus
|
 |
| Turmeric Plant |
 |
| Dog Tail Cactus. We call her 'Medusa.' |
 |
| Lithops, or 'Living Stone' succulent |
 |
| Baby pineapple |
 |
| I have a big crush on this guy. We call him Jerry Garcia! |
 |
| Macho fern. We call him Jimmi Hendrix. |
 |
| Impatiens |
 |
| Mexican Petunia |
 |
| Caladium 'Love Everlasting'. Corny, I know. And yes, I partly bought them because of the name... |
In addition to growing cool plants, I love to study them as well- have you seen the
La Todera Pinterest board called Strange Flowers? It's kind of like a wishlist for my garden and patterns :)
I consider gardening not only good for my mental health, but it is ALWAYS providing my new inspiration for fabric flower, pincushion, and other types of pattern designs. In fact, I consider plants and flowers a business expense!
