Got Bulbs?

4.21.2010 • in the evening

I started out at Home Depot yesterday, it was a nice day and so perfect for garden shopping, I got a few things there.

They didn’t have any bulbs, but I knew Lowe’s did and they are just across the street.

I ended up getting an Orchid

It was on sale for $3.99 and all by itself on a shelf everyone forgot...so I had to get her...no matter how bad she looks I will save her!

That looks bad right?
Poor thing.
I followed the instructions on the package and got this stuff and potted it, we’ll see how this goes.

If I can keep this alive and it blooms I will try something more challenging.
I need a life.

I got some beautiful Hydrangeas at Lowe’s too, I have them in their original pots until the flower beds are ready and will probably get more.
I got a few hanging baskets and some other things to brighten up the porch...it doesn’t look quite as sad now.

I am pretty sure the orchid is Dena’s favorite flower.  Aren’t they really finicky?

I would love to be able to have flowers around the house but all I can grow is bamboo. :/
