Thou Shalt Not Covet …

June 30, 2010

But I do!  Oh, I do!  Please don’t tell Amoeba, but I have found a multitude of garden planters online that just might want to come and live with us.  That high end planter pictured on the left is definitely making my heart pitter-pitter-patter.  Isn’t it lovely?

I have been having a wonderful time with my deck garden.  Tonight Amoeba finally found a teeny-tiny tomato on one of my plants.  I have already claimed it as mine alone!  Of course, Amoeba isn’t a big fan of tomatoes so he wasn’t overly concerned with my unwillingness to share.

We have already harvested a couple of salads from the variety of lettuce I planted in a window box planter.  In fact, Amoeba enjoyed the fresh lettuce so much, he told me I needed to buy a couple more window boxes and plant another crop or two of mixed greens.  Radishes might grow well in a window box, too, don’t you think?

I also want a couple of matching decorative planters for our big front porch.  I want something that will compliment the hanging basket and the pedestal planter. My theme out front is purple and pink.  I would love to put a Fuchsia plant and some Pansies out there with the Petunias and the Bleeding Heart.
