I adore the way my dwarf Nandina 'Firepower' changes from the spring and summer bright green to the deep red!
I will be sad when the first good frost kills back my Blue Daze!
This plant is called Maltese Cross. This one was well over 8 feet tall until I came out one day to find it broken! I was so sad. I put the top piece into a pot of dirt, and it rooted. The rest of the plant started growing new leaves all up and down the stems that had preciously lost their leaves. I was so happy. I had not had much luck rooting this plant in the past!
I also decided to re-organize my mixing cart. I took my bread machine off since it no longer works! Let's see, my flowerbed is ready for lights, and I am all organized for Christmas baking! I did manage to get the Christmas boxes out of the attic with the assistance of my son and his friend! Let the decorating begin!
Ya'll Come Back!

If I could only have one shrub, I think it would be Nandina; they are so amazing the way they change color!
ReplyDeleteDang, girl, you've got a rolls royce of a baking cart! I can already smell the bread baking.
That maltese cross is awesome! The garden bed looks good too.
ReplyDeleteThat mixing cart is a fantastic idea.
ReplyDeleteYou've got a green thumb and I understand about the weeding thing! THAT's why I only have decorations inside to far...LOL! Also, love your blog...I'll be back! Susan
