Project Tools & Tips

  1. I remember my mom was going to throw out a Christmas cactus because she thought it was dead. I nursed it back to life and was hooked on plants since. I would go to the mall as a teenager and there was a plant store that sold little pots of plants for .99 cents. I was always bringing plants home and had a nice little forest growing in no time! I now have/love African Violets. If you get the special planters that water from the bottom you don’t have to worry about them, just keep water in the bottom…might want to look into them Pat!

  2. I also love geraniums. I have big pots of them on my patio; pinks and corals. I’ve asked hubby for a white one for Mother’s Day. Here in Arizona they last for years. Love this block also, it’s beautiful.

  3. My first trip abroad was to visit one of my exchange students in Brussels, Belgium – we went to the Grand Place but not when the flower carpet was there – would love to have seen that in person. But, loved the city itself. I too love geraniums and begonias, but think the first flowers I ever planted myself were zinnias – I was in 4-H and grew them to enter in a county fair.
