ISOLATION AND LAWN ORNAMENTS

LAWN ORNAMENTS AND INDOOR GARDENING:

Getting lots done!! I put out all the big lawn ornaments:  pictures coming.  I dropped one of the bunnies and had to glue his ear on… very sad.

Also:  Some of the seeds I planted in the basement are beginning to GERMINATE!!  So here are some pictures of the excitement in my life while I’m staying isolated, or hunkering down to stay alive.  There’s no end to what I can do with some dirt and seeds.  If you would like to try starting some seeds all you need is some potting soil and seeds.  Here is a great place to get seeds:    https://www.harrisseeds.com/  Feel free to ask any questions if you’d like to try it.

CORONAVIRUS SELF QUARANTINE AND SOCIAL DISTANCING

GARDENING is one of the loveliest ways to spend social isolation.  I can talk to my plants, feed them, dress them, play with them, admire them, and watch them.  My indoor seedlings are planted in the basement as of this morning, (tomatoes, peppers, parsley, basil, cukes, eggplant, marigolds, zinnias, morning glories and snap dragons).   All of my early vegetables are planted in the Morris Plains Garden:  mixed lettuce, romaine, spinach, radishes, kale, broccoli and peas.  Hopefully, I’ll be able to harvest starting in 3 weeks.  By then I’ll be out of fresh vegetables, so it’ll be great to pick a fresh radish!!

I can’t wait!!
