Before.
Today I was determined to put these flowers into pots for my container garden. I had a small-ish bag of dirt, because they were out of the bags of one or two feet square feet of of dirt, which I have purchased in previous years. Oh well, you snooze, you loose; I took what I could get and used it.
One angle of my deck.
After filling two urns, I was outof dirt and had to return to the store. However, I found that with smaller bags, it was easier for me to pour the dirt from the bag into the pots.
The other angle.
You can see the lawn chairs in the background. I put them out in the lawn to take advantage of the natural disinfection of sunlight. These chairs have previously resided in my garage, which smells just a slight bit of mildew. One cannot always control the moisture in these situations.
I took another picture, of my feet and and what you could see of the deck beyond, but I cannot find it now. That is how technologically inept I am. However, I feel I have done a good job on my deck. Steven and I sat outside and enjoyed the view for a while. No doubt we will do so again.
In the meantime, here is one more picture of my backyard.
I’ll get another shot, when there are even more blooms.
Here is our rhododendron. I thought it would be blooming soon. I do love a tree that blooms. I must plant a few more. No doubt I will make another blog post when I do.
