My Garden Keeps Growing. :)

Yesterday, after Kenny's T-ball game, I took Zach over to Armstrong Garden Center and bought $30 worth of flowers. They were having a big sale and I couldn't pass up the good deals. I bought 8 new flowers: Blue Felicia Pinwheel, Sassy Dark Red Geraniums, White Madeira Daisies, Mini Yellow Outback Daisies, Floral Lace Dianthus, White Snow Crystals and Brachyscome Purple/Verbena Pink (12 inch hanging plant).

I spent this afternoon planting most of my flowers. The only one I didn't get planted was the White Snow Crystals. I'll have to get them planted sometime this week. I also added vitamins to all of my plants, except for my fruits/veggies. I'll need to get special vitamins for those.

Here are some pictures of my newly planted flowers:


Floral Lace Dianthus, planted 4/18/10. I thought these were pretty and they attract butterflies and hummingbirds, which is a big bonus for me.


Pink Jasmine, planted 4/18/10. Smells SO good!!


Mini Yellow Outback Daisies, planted 4/18/10. These are native to Australia. I can't get over how cute they are, little mini daisies.


White Madeira Daisies, planted 4/18/10. I thought these were SO pretty when I saw them yesterday. I just had to get them.


Blue Felicia Pinwheel, planted 4/18/10. These Daisy-like flowers bloom beautifully to invite butterflies into the garden. They aren't blooming yet, but they are really pretty and delicate.


Sassy Dark Red Geraniums, planted 4/18/10. These were just too pretty to pass up.


My hanging plant: Brachyscome Purple/Verbena Pink. Hung up 4/17/10.


White Snow Crystals. Not planted yet.
