Rooting Around

plants 003

I think I feel Spring coming….either that or I am trying to push the envelope a bit!

I noticed my little Aloe Vera plant contained two little guys, so I split them up.

Look what came in the mail…..it got me dreaming of starts, new plants and seeds.  What else could I divide?

Don’t you just love the color green….it makes me think of hope….hope that Spring will soon be here…why it’s almost February.  The snow is still on the ground but I can feel it coming.  I see tiny little seeds bursting forth with bright green baby leaves….  In my mind, of course!  Guess I’d better do something to make that happen!

    I have a little Aloe Vera plant that a friend gave me from Arizona! I love to use it for burns. I guess we have had Spring like weather, almost summer like really, here too. Yesterday we were at a memorial service that was held on a college baseball field. It was 85 degrees and quite hot!!! Crazy!!
    I love garden magazines!!! Love them!!! Have a great week!!

    God knew what he was doing when he created the color Green. He knew it was soothing to the eye and is a promise of hope and renewal.

    Hope your day is good and your week, superb.

    I love the color green too, and I can't wait for spring!
    My lantanas are getting little shoots of green....I'm hoping we don't get a freeze that will nip them.

    All's right with the world when we see little hints of spring.

    I know...it's coatless here today...high 60's and beautiful but I had already planned indoor activities which I need to do or I won't eat tonight or have clean clothes tomorrow! LOL! I'll be out in between. I could actually hang the clothes on the line today it's so nice but after all Winter of the dogs "doin' it" in the yard it's like a minefield out there!
    I used to get that magazine and I loved it especially their covers with always the gorgeous potting shed!
    Congats to the winner! I have to get that book...as I look around at all my folks stuff...too funny!
    Have a great day!
