Playing Gardener Today

Today was a beautiful day out. The sun was shining and the breeze was blowing. It was just too nice to sit inside on the computer all day. So, we decided to do some replanting of our porch plants.

First we went to Lowe's and got some Miracle Grow potting soil and rescued a few discount plants, including a potted rose bush.

Next, we have never grown roses, especially in a pot, so we did a little research about it and found a great site.

Lastly, we upgraded each plant we have to a larger pot. There is just something about playing in the dirt that I just love. Then cleaned up the mess, sweep off the porch and sat back to enjoy our labors. All the plants look very happy now! LOL
