Sometimes I wonder if I can actually grow plants, flowers and maybe even a tree without killing it on the first week. You have seen the orchids that I had from the house in San Jose. With our new home, there's only a small portion of the front yard that you can plant and we have a small piece of fake grass. At the back is pretty much going uphill and very rocky. Last weekend I decided to add some other plant to the collection. I painted the rectangular planter box in our deck in the back. Jeff putt up some black metal hangers for three hanging pots. I noticed the other day that the nice red mums that I got for the front porch was looking sad and some are drying up. I checked with the watering boy (Jeff) if he remembered to water them. He actually did but I think it needs a little more since the weather was getting a bit warm. Yesterday when I checked, it was back and alive again. This week I will have to try a different place to get a couple more perennials (one for the backyard and the other for the hanging pot). Maybe there's still hope for me to take care of plants and watch them thrive.
