It's over 90 degrees outside today. *fans self* It's so humid too. I got my garden all planted a couple weeks ago but gosh dang it is so hot and humid I'll be surprised if any of the blooms live. My seedlings from last year are sprouting and blooming again. Though it looks like I may have more wildflowers than morning glories this year but I don't mind. I finally got the hanging baskets up and they look so pretty! :D In one I have violas, annuals and salvia blooms and the other is only rainbow salvia blooms. I did buy a third hanging basket, the kind with a hook, and it's fuschia bleeding hearts. They look so pretty and colorful!
This year I've also added a few potted plants to line the outside of the garden bed. There's two pots of elephant ears, a pot of lavendar and a glass pot with orange gerbera daisies. The elephant ears are ginormous and catch all sorts of condensation, bugs and random outside things. The dogs seem to like them best because when we water the garden they'll drink off the leaves and eat whatever bugs are trying to eat the leaves. Sammy doesn't understand the concept of "don't eat Mommy's garden or she'll yell and I'll get a bath" yet, but he's at least learned not to stomp on the seedlings and not to roll in the dirt.
Speaking of dirty dogs, today is bath day! Yay! Now that Sammy has all his stitches out and everything he's been getting exercise again and today I can finally give him a real bath. He is hella dirty! He thinks it's runny to stand under the runoff from the hanging baskets when we water the flowers and ends up covered in muddy water and muck. Sadie thinks it's hilarious and will just watch him and wag like crazy.
Anyways, I should probably go get the bathroom ready to bathe my dirty furbabies. I have some gift cards to use for EdenFantasys if anyone wants to recommend what I should spend them on. :)
