The Red Wagon 09

All but one of the mesembreanthemums have shown their flowers, the remaining on looks like it'll be yellow! I want more filling in, but it does look good for now. :-)

This looks GREAT. I saw an old rusted wagon at a yard sale last week. Looks like I should have have loaded it into my car :)

You should have. I picked this up at the transfer station, someone had thrown it out since the front wheel bolts had rusted out the bottom. Its a great planter, grown lots of different things in it. I just prop it up. :-)

They were very eye catching at the nursery. I had to try them. It's kale so It is turning out a little more upright than I planned.

know what you mean GT, maybe some low flowers round the stems would look good

The verbena usually fills right in, but these are staying very small. Only three of the 12 I got are doing well. Most are little things like this....still. :-) Most of the nurseries are cleaned out. (SHhh only six more weeks....)

we have constant heavy rain at the moment GT, feels like we not going to get that summer they promised , flowers getting battered about with rain and wind grrr,its disheartening when you work so hard to grow your plants then as the flowers show the rain washing them out :o(

I had the wet summer last year with you all. It was hard. I hope everything pops back up in the sunshine, which will be soon to come. I have my fingers crossed. :-)
