Sometimes there is an advantage in attending anticipated mass. As Josef was free last Saturday night, we decided to go to mass at 6:30 pm. It made my Sunday free.
For the past two mornings, I’ve been in the garden digging, replanting and weeding . Getting ready for the rainy days. The satisfaction one gets from gardening….priceless. I know some won’t agree with me. Sometimes I don’t wear gloves at all. It’s nice to feel the rough and coarse earth in your hands once in a while. And it’s nice to see recently trimmed plants lining the garden wall. One of my friends who visited me last Thursday brought a pot of pink shrimp plant for my garden. I have the yellow variety so this pink one would add to the beauty of the yellow flowers. I hope I could propagate it later.
Pretty in pink. Can’t wait to see this in full bloom. My pink shrimp plant.
A Celosia bloom
I bought a seed packet of this Celosia and planted it a few months back. I wonder if it would produce another color.
Gardening is one relaxing activity that I could not give up. Yesterday, I transferred some Portulaca plants and they are now flowering nicely in different colors. They are so easy to propagate and very good ground covers. If it does not rain this afternoon, will be able to finish uprooting the weeds outside. Gardening is hard but the happiness and satisfaction it gives are priceless.
