The Ivy is Gone!!!
May. 15th, 2011 05:24 pmThings I bought that I really, really didn't need: A yard-sale tarantula. At least s/he came with a nifty two-unit tarantula condo. Also, bare root fruit trees were 50% off so I now have a 'Honeycrisp' apple and a 'Liberty' apple.
I have been gardening fearlessly. I don't know if it's just some sort of Spring energy, but it's so wonderful. I'm planting plants that have been waiting far too long for the 'perfect' place. I've tended to be a garden romantic, never seeming to grasp that my relationship with my flowering annuals is fleeting and doomed until they begin to fade. This spring I actually planted cosmos before the agrostemma has even begun to bloom in earnest. I also tackled the Ivy Disaster.
( The Ivy Disaster was pretty scary )
