Hello green thumb



Until a few months ago, I hadn't ever planted anything. Well not successfully anyway. My mother gave me a little Calla Lilly kit, and it seemed easy enough, so I gave it a shot.

That lilly is now two feet tall! Basking in my achievement, I decided to use another little kit that we had to plant some trees. Those Norway Spruce trees have indeed sprouted to a respectable inch tall!

Feeling that I am really on a roll, I've now gone on to starting seedlings for an entire veggie garden, along with a new flower garden in our yard. I'm planning on seeding the yard for grass as well.
I guess I figure strike while I'm hot, right? Right!

  1. If you start growing tomatoes &/or lettuce... and find yourself with an over abundance of either... and need to find someone to help you eliminate said abundance... PICK ME! PICK ME! PICK ME!! ♥

  2. Gillian, you're on!!

    I've never planted a garden before, so I could have done 1 of 2 things. . . Planted far too many things, and I'll be buried alive with massive veggies.
    OR, I did it all wrong, and I'll have to scrap the whole thing. Either way, I'm giving it my all! Let's hope for the best!
