SPRING IS ROUND THE CORNER SO MY THOUGHTS HAVE TURNED TO POTS.
I DO NOT HAVE A GARDEN NOW SO I'VE THOUGHT OF LOTS AND LOTS.
OF PLANTS I CAN PUT IN POTS INSTEAD AND GROW THEM BY MY DOOR.
IV'E BEEN BROWSING THROUGH A PLANT CATALOGUE TODAY WHICH DROPPED ONTO MY FLOOR.
I STILL CAN SEE MY AUBRECIA THOUGH CLINGING TO THE ROCKS SO TIGHT.
THERE WAS VIVID PURPLE EVERYWHERE IT WAS SUCH A PRETTY SIGHT.
I ALSO REMEMBER MY LOOSETRIFE YELLOW GROWING UP SO HIGH.
AND THE EUCLAYPTUS TREE I HAD REACHING FOR THE SKY.
CALENDULAS IN A VERY LARGE PATCH BRIGHT ORANGE THEY DID GLOW.
AND WALLFLOWERS AND SWEET WILLIAMS THERE ALL GROWING IN A ROW.
CANDITUFT IN ALL COLOURS LIKE A CARPET COVERING ALL.
THE GREEN GREEN IVY CLIMBING AND CLINGING UP THE GARAGE WALL.
PETUNIA PETALS WOULD FALL TO THE GROUND FROM THE BASKET WHEN IT RAINED.
I USED TO COVER THEM UP SOMETIMES AS I THOUGHT IT WAS SUCH A SHAME.
ALL THE SHRUBS THERE SPRUTTING WONDERFUL BUDS SO TIGHT.
IT'S LOVELY TO HAVE A GARDEN THEY ARE SUCH A GREAT DELIGHT.
BUT I'M GOING TO MAKE THE MOST OF MY POTS AND I'M HOPING THAT THEY WILL LOOK.
JUST AS BEAUTIFUL AS THEY DO ON THE PAGE IN THIS CATALOGUE BOOK.
I'LL ALSO VISIT THE GARDEN CENTRE AND SEE WHAT THEY HAVE TOO.
AND IN BETWEEN THE POTS I'M PLACING AN ORNAMENT OR TWO.
THESE ARE SOME OF MY GARDEN ONES I HAD WHEN I MOVED BY THE SEA..
I HAVE BOUGHT A HANGING BASKET TOO TO PLACE ON THE WALL
ABOVE THESE.
I HAVE A COLOURFUL HEDGEHOG VERY LARGE WHICH MY DAUGHTER SENT.
ALL THE WAY FROM SPAIN HE CAME AMONGST THE POTS HE'LL LOOK CONTENT.
SO THANKYOU TO ONE OF MY J/LAND FRIENDS WHO ENCOURAGED ME TO DO THIS.
WHEN I WROTE IN ANOTHER SIMPLE RHYME MY GARDEN I DO MISS.
I HOPE I'M AS MUCH IN MY GLORY AND THE POT PLANTS WILL HAVE BEEN WORTH.
"AS YOUR NEARER GODS HEART IN A GARDEN "
"THAN ANYWHERE ELSE ON EARTH."
SO ABOVE IN SAZZY'S GRAPHIC I'M POSTING OFF RIGHT AWAY.
FOR ANOTHER CATOLOGUE OF POT PLANTS IT WILL BE HERE IN A COUPLE OF DAYS.
I'LL BROWSE IT AT MY LEASURE THEN OFF I'LL GO TO BUY.
IV'E ONLY ON ODD OCCASIONS GROWN POT PLANTS INSIDE SO I'LL TRY.
I SUPPOSE IF IV'E HAD GREEN FINGERS OUTSIDE FOR FORTY YEARS OR MORE.
I CARN'T SEE WHY MY POT PLANTS WON'T THRIVE BY MY INSIDE DOOR.
I HAVE AN OLD COPPER KETTLE WHICH I'LL FILL WITH SOME PLANTS IV'E CHOSE.
AND I HAVE A MINATURE WATERING CAN READY WITH A TINY SPRINKLING ROSE.
WHEN MY INDOOR GARDEN FLOURISHES I WILL PLACE A FEW PICTURES IN TIME.
FOR ALL OF YOU J/LAND FRIENDS TO SEE HERE IN "MY SIMPLE RHYME"
Astoriasand.
( I am hoping my copper kettle will turn out like this isn't it pretty?)
