Thursday in the Garden

Our newest flower, Mommy promised it would bloom all year.

I likes it when it spins around I tried to sneak up on it. I thinks it is alive.

I had to stop for a bath.


The Plumbago, somebody asked us how we got it to bloom. Mommy thinks it likes LOTS OF WATER as it usually blooms after we have had torrential downpours for a few days.

The wishbone plant, it reseeds itself.

Oh goodness I am getting forgetful, I am headed over to Jonesie's to make my report to the Society of Feline Gardeners.

PS: We still has lots of rain and wind here, apparently Hurricane Isaac doesn't want to leave. But we are doing OK.

Oh that is good that all of you are all right after the hurricane.
We need to get a flower like that. It would be so easy to take care of, no watering etc. Out Person could handle that for sure. Hope you continue to do all right with the wind and rain.

We are glad you are safe. And how did your lovely garden weather the storm?

Chey, We are not sure yet. We thinks we lost some plants but maybe after they dry out they will revive. If it ever stops raining we will give them a chance to pop back up.

We have been wondering how Isaac treated you - we could use a bit of that rain here. But the weather guys keep changing their song every hour. We are either going to get a couple of inches or nothing.

Mom thinks she needs a few of those spinning flowers here, maybe they would actually last all season.
