A few Spring Phone Pics

I just uploaded some pics from my phone and thought I'd post and comment on this drizzly May morning.

This was taken at an Ohio wholesale nursery in March. Brent and I were there for a plant auction.

A group of Red Twig Dogwoods being bid on.

Container stock

Water Feature

"Water feature thing" nearing completion. It wasn't till it reached this stage, I realized my Frank Lloyd Wright influences were showing. 

Water Feature

Still needs more thoroseal...and all kinds of other gunk to get it water tight. This was my first attempt at laying any kind of block and mortar, so some of the joints were pretty sloppy. 

With Plants

I put a piece of pvc through a half block, filled with mortar for a nice artesian well effect. Took these this morning with dull cloudy light -- lookin a little fuzzy but you get the idea...

 

Water Hyacinth. These and a couple water lilies will fill the lower basin with flowers later.

All this stuff will be blooming in a couple weeks.

 

 We've sold a lot of baskets! Still lots of clean healthy hanging baskets in our hoop house, plus yesterday I started another 30 flower pouch bags and more annual baskets for summer. (just need to sweep up now!)

Garden Center

Perennials are just starting to pop.

Inside, some clay bird baths, expressions in stone, statuary etc.

Still developing some houseplant inventory.

The desk view from where I sit right now. Nice view of the western sky that's better than local radar.
