Looking great Tiffany. Lovey dubby I should someday re-do my mini fairy gardens. The plants have out grown them and they just need a freshening up.

Thank you! I did snip and re-stick a lot of old leaning stems the past few weeks, then took the pics yesterday. When you have a chance, I'd love to see what's going on with yours.

Here are my 2 fairy gardens. One is in a was basin and the other in a wash tub. I am thinking about moving them elsewhere and plant some kind of flowers in this area along the front on the house.

LOL! You're right. There are 2 snakes in there somewhere. I'll have to see where they've slithered to...!

So cute, Jeanne!

Time for a trim. I let this get overgrown this summer.

Love the travel trailers and the rusty gardening chair. I've been thinking about where I could possibly create a little scene. Somewhere tucked away I have some ancient Chinese miniatures that my ancient mother had. I recall them in a indoor pot: the fishermen held their poles over a small shard of mirror.

Some status pics now that, hopefully, the lows won't bring anything more than maybe a very light frost.

Ficus benjamina got a little frost bite on the outer foliage. I removed those leaves, then all of the biggest leaves, then edited the shape.

For flowers I started collecting the miniature blooming wild flowers (aka weeds) on my lawn. They are perfect for miniature gardening.

Hopefully I picked the correct thread to post this... Smiling
I set up a Succulent Fairy Garden of sorts in May 2019., mainly to amuse the younger grandchildren at the time.
Yesterday I was able to move it outside and "restart" most plants. Some plants turned into thugs and took over, choking out others.

Looks great. I had fairy gardens in containers in the past and then redid them to in-ground. Now due to the leaves falling from the shade tree, I am going to turn 2 old wheelbarrows into fairy gardens as soon as DH drills holes in the bottom to let the rain water out. I am anxious to get them started.

Wheelbarrows! That should give you a lot of room to play! Thumbs up
