Sooooo....stopped by Southern States on the way home as I realized I'd run out of grit (course I arrived home only to realize I didn't have that much soil either Sighing! ) Any-who...thought I'd just take a stroll and 'window-shop' the plants (said no plant lover ever). I simply wanted to find that beautiful Centaurea montana and maybeeee pick one up. Needless to say I left with grit plus 4 pots...LOL. It's an exercise in futility, I tell you...why I even try to avoid plant purchases - SMH. They had Frost Proof Gardenias for $9.99 (got home and realized she only charged me $6.99) - they did have the Centaurea Montana (but ONLY in the larger size - ok twist my arm Rolling my eyes. ) and then I found this Mexican Sage which said perennial however I'm now wondering if it's truly hardy here. Oh and I found biddy thyme - which will go in the fairy garden I'm planning for the girls Hurray!
“Little girl, why are you doing this? You can’t save all these starfish. You can’t begin to make a difference!” After a few moments thought, she bent down, picked up another starfish & hurled it as far as she could into the ocean. Then she looked up at the man and replied, “Well, I made a difference to that one!” Be the change you wish to see in the world. http://www.stillsthatspeak.com...
