We've been blessed these past few months with glorious summer weather. Admittedly I haven't been doing much gardening lately, but the fun, sunny days got me motivated again. But instead of working the soil, I want to do it in pots and cans this time. And instead of veggies, I want to try my hand with flowers now. And planting in transportable medium makes sense, as I can display these in front of the house, and move someplace else in case the strong Wellington winds threaten to destroy my work.
So last 2nd February I bought some garden soil, seeds, and a grown azalea to start me off.
Planting and gardening can be a very rewarding experience. And I think I'm off to a good start, because last 13th February, I have seen life sprouting from the seeds.
I plan to make gardening a longer term hobby, and collect azaleas as my main interest while I work with flowers and veggies on the side. Hmmm... I guess I can consider this my New Year's resolution: to be more active outdoors. Not the running, exercising kind, but outdoorsy just the same.
