Greenhouse Gardening

All the geraniums are huge and blossoming their hearts out. This geranium is one of my favorites. It is hot pink or fuschia with a flourescent orange in the center of each blossom. The greenhouse is attached to the house so I can delight in their beauty day or night. Today the temperature in the greenhouse was 94 degrees F!

Heirloom curly spearmint and Kentucky Colonel spearmint are flourishing in the warmth of the greenhouse. I add the leaves to salads for a great taste. After a long winter, just about anything that's green goes into delicious salads which I could eat for every meal.


"Earth laughs in flowers." - Ralph Waldo Emerson


Wishing everyone love and lots of laughter today.
