Thursday in the Garden with Ping

::::::meow::::::

Welcome to our Garden this week.
We wanted to share a few of the things still blooming.
First is one of Mom's recently purchased amaryllis.

Isn't it beautiful?

Mom could not resist this red gernamium.
The vendor was selling all of his plants at 75% off and she
got it for $2.50
 

Again another discount plant, this time it's a begonia.
Mom was looking at this local garden centers beautiful plants and
had fallen in love with a beautiful big basket of red begonias
and then she spotted this one on the "sale" rack.
She nabbed it $3, a very large savings over the one she was
wishing for.

And finally a close up of one of our climbing red roses.

OK Mom I see all of it but I don't get it.
Why are so interested in plants?

Well while I try to figure her out, please drop in on the true master
gardener Jonesie for more beauty in the garden.

See you next week!

Mom found a nice place online where to buy some amaryllis
bulbs.
When they arrived a few weeks ago she put them right into the
ground.
She really thought she was going to have to wait until next
spring before she would have blooms.

But as you can see she did not.

Aren't they gorgeous?

We welcome all of you to see how they are starting to bloom.

She is so excited to see the blooms.

But I am just excited to see a lizard.
