Various Types of Flowers

Paul is in hamilton - which is to say that, right at this moment, he's in Toronto, checking in to get on a train that will get him *to* Hamilton in an hour and a half or so. :-)

I'm looking forward to making cookies with Ami_B and Arndis tomorrow. :-)


In my friend's garden, I planted:

Itty Bitty Hollyhocks (which, hopefully, will grow in profusion and give her a bit wodge of purple-black flowers next summer)

A pink Campanelle (courtesy of PotBelly's neighbour - I've got another one to put in my own yard)

Forget-Me-Nots (which will either root or go to seed or both and give her more flowers)

Yarrow & Spearmint (which are both damn near impossible to kill and, as such, should be just fine and dandy, thanks).

One stalk of Beebalm (which, in theory, should spread like a wild thing within a year)

Three Bachelors' Buttons (which look pretty dead, but I'm hoping their roots are healthy enough to take in her yard -- come on thunder storm! Water these wee babies! :-)


Next week, I shall bring more transplants (and, in theory, a new trowel) -- most likely more yarrow and spearmint and forget-me-nots. Potentially something else, but I don't know what just yet. :-)

I've got some unidentified iris-looking thing - yellow and red - I find myself thinking 'pussy flower' (like something painted on a Dinner Party plate, ruffled and red throated. Pretty. We'll see what it turns into. :-)


In other news: Thanks to my sister, I now have a Keeper. :-)
( For Those who like TMI- and I *do* mean TMI, or: How It's Going )

So that is the joy of the Keeper. Hurrah! I'm so glad I have one now. :-)

Moving right along. :-)
