"Yardwork" Condo Style...

I purchased these fabulous pots about 2 months ago at HomeGoods.  The large green one for $19.99 and the small orange one for $14.99.  Since I'm known for killing any plant that comes my way, I was hestitant to plant anything.  Today, I got the itch and plant we did.  Good thing for us, Lowes offers a 1-year warranty on their plants...  I'm so grateful!

First we had to drill holes in the bottom of each pot for drainage...

Then Miracle Grow Potting Soil [believe me, it's going to take a miracle for these babies to stay alive], rock for drainage and time to plant...

And last but not least, final approval from the boss...

I thought I should include a photo of the beautiful tree that's blooming just outside of our front porch...  I have a great view from our kitchen window too...

Where Have You Gone Green Thumb?...

GMy poor plant has died [R.I.P.] My parents gave it to us in August. I've also killed an orchid and the plant on my desk at work. I'm thinking my green thumb isn't so green so with that said, I'm happy we don't have a yard :) With everything going on with the wedding and condo renovations, I've failed to remember to water my poor plant. I'm thinking cactus and other succulent plants are more my style :)
