Ketch-Up Day

 

How are you? Watcha been doing?

I've been:

Staining the fence.  

 

AND

 Removing my grapevine

AND

Planting a Razzmatazz, developed in North Carolina for North Carolina growing. 

I hate cutting down  plants. Its right up there with  destroying books. On the other hand, it's also like staying in a bad marriage that's not going to get better vs getting a divorce. So,  I divorced my grapevine and am starting over😐.  It just wasn't right for these conditions.  Who'd a thought? Note to self: Research before buying plants I'm unfamiliar with.

AND

I ordered a Dwarf Granny Apple.  Woot. Woot.  This one I did research:)

AND

Inside:

See the leaves at the bottom. That was the size of them when the HH first got me this plant. I left it in place for several months, it stayed healthy and it would get new leaves, but didn't get any bigger. Then I moved it to where it caught the morning sun, watered it more and gave it a teensy bit of coffee grounds and it took off and lived up to its name: Elephant Ear. I'm not sure if it was the sun, extra watering, caffeine or a combo which increased its size.  What do you think?

ALSO INSIDE:

Tis the season.

 

  

 AND

We had a visitor sitting under the porch light.

 AND

I got my mammo last week.  The fun never ends.  Cough. Cough. Choke. Choke. Wait while I hack up that furball.

 The imaging center has been giving out gifts after mammos the past two years. Last year it was a pink silk rose.  This year, as you can see a cup, a pen, lip balm and a nail file.
