Feeling Thoughtful
the proof of the pudding........... ...
yesterday was lousy,it poured all day, very wet,cool and miserable, so i got on with housework. cleaned kitchen and shower room, took me ages as this bloody ankle is killing me. got up this morning to a very damp,misty dull morning, which got out at 12.30 to glorious sun,and warmth. cooked a yummy roast beef lunch,cleared away,loaded dishwasher ( no im not rich,pam gave it me lol her son got it,and it was being used in her berdoom as a tv table. lol its a tabletop one but its been plumbed into cupboard under sink) and went to bed til 5.
now,remember i was praising spray and grow a few entries back?? get it from QVC shopping channel, another free plug. lol. well these pics show why i praise it so much . enjoy and if anyone not into flowers nice having you this far lol.
tomatoes are doing so well been sprayed with it every week huge trusses and looking good. get fed every 2 waters with tomato fertiliser as well.
busy lizzies in a flower pouch were tiny plug plants. every plant has been sprayed every week with spray n gro EXCEPT for the bottom left plant. again fed weekly with toato feed. as can be seen there is a huge difference in the quality and size of plant. i was careful to choose 10 plugs exactly the same size. poor little thing is being sprayed now lol
front of my house no its not a jungle underneath window lol they are day lillies look bit untidy until they bloom
fuschias doing so well
again sprayed weekly n fed watered every day soon dry out
this is on an old plinth i found when i moved in think it was a bird bath once i turned it upside down,the pot is one of a set of 3 that cost 6.99 a set and is near the pond.
so, think you now know why i praise spray n grow so much. 2 more sprays will do,then i feed twice weekly with tomato fertiliser and hope they keep going until september. i did try and add these pics as an album and crashed twice doing it so hope you enjoyed them. take care all and many thanks for all the kind comments you left.much appreciated

Hi Mort, I hope your ankle is feeling better to day. Your flowers are lovely and your tomatoe bushes is full. We have some planted but they don't have many tomatoes on them. It has been so dry here. Hello to mums hope she is still doing well.

Hi Mort! Thanks for stopping by and for your comment. Isn't it funny how we all seem to have a special love for the place where we grew up?
Your flowers and plants are amazing. I did look for Spray n Grow online after your tip a while back, and it looks like there are other places from which you can order it, not just QVC. I'm skipping the garden this year, due to the way our vacation was timed, additional work to be done on it, etc., but next year I will be sure to get some.
