Mine did quite well last year even though I didn't start it with seeds. <br />I do want to know how the tomato slice does.

Hoping the bunnies in the yard don't find them.<br />Your Orchid is just lovely, wow it has really filled out and of course your favorite color :)<br />Have a great week!Conniecrafterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09266327228870948083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949868613243486755.post-92167526473346729592017-05-22T06:02:10.569-04:002017-05-22T06:02:10.569-04:00Love your green thumb Debbie.

Mother's Day weekend was just about the perfect time there ( when the kids were small helping to start the garden was my gift after breakfast that they (and their dad) cooked. Anyway, things grow pretty fast in Oregon and that worked for us. But the tomatoes always came from nursery starts.Sallie (FullTime-Life)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15442598857394838271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949868613243486755.post-32735359542677086502017-05-21T22:15:35.154-04:002017-05-21T22:15:35.154-04:00Wow.

My friend Chris also does a big garden with LOTS in it....I will benefit from that! I just need to stick to flowers!

I salvaged one several years back from the 'manager's special' cart at the grocery store which I believe was their way of saying 'last call before going to the dump'. Much to my surprise after those last couple of blooms went away it sat dormant with beautiful green leafs for a number of months then bam! a stock of buds. On at least one occasion I had 8 or so blooms and it continues to hang in there - but never 17, maybe one day. Well done.Nickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17236806773789677957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949868613243486755.post-64690238987455745012017-05-21T10:36:12.254-04:002017-05-21T10:36:12.254-04:00Wow for the orchid!
