I admit it. I was suckered. Suckered by the beautiful spring weather. Suckered by the bright festive colors. I gave in too easily and I bought a garden full of happiness.
This morning I got up early and dug out perfect little dirt cocoons that my sweet alyssum and precious petunias could snuggle into and grow into healthy and vibrant contributors to not only the beauty of my yard but the whole neighborhood as well. The neighborhood kitty came to oversee my work and pounce at my spade every time he disapproved of plant placement.
So my landscaping was designed by a snuggly ball of feline furriness, with impeccable taste I might add!
In all likeliness, Houston weather may have one or two more freezes up its sleeve. If it does, I will loose all of the prettiness that the little orange fellow toiled over, but I felt good doing it. And even if they do, there wasn't a huge financial investment. Kitty and I can always re-plant!
I will add pictures as soon as I retrieve my memory card from my mother's computer...
