But I really need something blooming in my life right now so I masked up and headed to a local nursery down the road for the other kind of flower.
No make up, no manicure and wearing a sweatshirt.
The Corona lock down has definitely put a nail in the coffin of my beauty regime.
Please note the mask is color coordinated though.
I’m not a heathen FFS.
Came home with a car load full of pansies, begonias, geraniums, mallow and a container of pretty I don’t know what.
This will be a good start… but no where near enough to fill my beds.
I bet you have a whole array of color coordinated masks, don’t you?

We did the same last week – and then came a hard frost that mocked out futile efforts to cover the flower beds.

Ditto. I lost one big batch of pansies but the rest survived.
I hate late frost!!!

You still can’t find flour? I mean other than the garden variety. Well, what a beautiful alternative! I wish I could work in my yard….but it would never be as vibrant or beautiful as Casa River.

I did the same thing yesterday, got all my veggie plants for my garden. First time I’ve been “out” in 2 months! I love your mask, mine is one of those ugly white ones.

Thanks. We have a 65 acre organic vegetable farm across the street. Seems rude to plant our own so I stick to flowers.
I bought a bunch of different masks on Etsy. I can’t sew a stitch!

Since you’re planting mallow I assume you’ve got a marsh to put it in.
I’m only half kidding. Aquatic gardening really can be quite fun, although it looks like you’ve got your hands full even if your beds aren’t.
