Bulbs in Winter, January 21-22, 2014

ABC Wednesday

B is for bulbs!
Amaryllis bulbs started in pots on Tuesday, January 21, 2014
I have had these Amaryllis bulbs for several years. One is 'Red Lion' and the other is 'Cinderella'
They will bloom in mid-February, just when I need a boost to get me through to Spring.
Do you like my pots?
They are plastic coffee cans, labels removed, and drainage holes drilled in the bottom.
Then I used small strips of Christmas wrapping paper to add contrasting color.
(Colored tape would be even better)

Meanwhile, outside...
It is a very cold Outdoor Wednesday
Tuesday afternoon, Prentiss county, Mississippi, USA
We are blessed to have a lot of evergreen trees (Pines and Cedars) for color in the Winter.
Monday was sunny and almost warm, but now daytime temperatures are just above freezing.
And nighttime lows are predicted to be well below freezing all this week.
No snow yet, but we are only halfway through Winter.

Have a wonderful day!

Our World Tuesday and Ruby Red Tuesday April 9, 2013


On March 23 my husband and I went to the Memphis Area Master Gardeners Spring Fling
in Memphis, Tennessee, USA.

Gardeners were displaying their best photos.

There were hundreds of wonderful Arts and Crafts for sale.

Some lucky birds will have beautiful mansions to nest in.
But seriously now, would you hang these works of art out in the weather?


Wheeled shelves of plants for sale were parked wherever space could be found.


Isn't this a beauty!


There was a booth promoting recycling.
The back of his shirt says it all: "Don't Trash Our Future - Recycle"

To clean up the Junk Yards - make Yard Art!


Isn't this the most beautiful way you have ever seen to recycle light bulbs?

This 'Salad Bowl' was one of the door prizes.
We didn't win it, but we didn't go home empty-handed.
I bought a cookbook, and we won a rain gauge and a Frisbee. 

Hope you are having a Beautiful Tuesday!
