We had a torrential downpour last night so I had to do a whole lot of bailing today! Gotta get more web trays, that's all there is to it. Poor (or should that be "pour" ?) little pot ghetto got soaked! Aaaaakkkk! And got house guests coming tomorrow.....I'm doomed!

So what do I do? Walk into the grocery store and say "Ooooooh, what a cute little campanula! Gotta have it!" Just what I need.....another plant in a pot!

I could make all of you feel so much better about your Pot Ghettos by posting pics of mine.

Almost everything I grow is in a pot. I'm a collector and grow hundreds of daylilies, lilies, hostas and other perennials, you name it!
If there were awards for such things, I would probably win for Pot Ghetto of the year!

I think Clint deserves an award for coming up with the term "pot ghetto!" Hey, maybe we need a new badge?

Maybe we could use an existing badge, it could be a private joke. Maybe

I see woofie has a nice pot.

My 6 year old granddaughter saw me enlarge your pic woofie and exclaimed 'That is so cute'. I've got to agree and what a beautiful dog!

Thanks, he's a sweetie, too.

That is one of my favorite pictures of him being a brat. He loves to grab things he knows he's not supposed to have and run with them so I'll chase him.
