On The Porch

“Where flowers bloom, so does hope.” 

Lady Bird Johnson

Just a few pictures from this summer.

This is a rabbit's paw fern, the roots grown outside the pot and usually grow down.  For reasons I don't know, this summer they grew up.  And another thing, rabbits paw fern does not come close to what this plant looks like, I think it should be a tarantula fern.  I think those furry roots look like tarantula legs.

My little yellow snail has made his home with the Crown of Thorns.  Good place for him.

Mr Goose moved with us when we downsized years ago.  He still continues to make me happy.

The pink geraniums did really well this year, I was surprised!

And last today, my Hearts of Hawaii.  It has also done very well this year, if you look close there's a third bloom hiding behind a leaf.  This is my 'baby' and I treat it as such. It's 3 or 4 years old now, and I'm very surprised it's still growing and doing well.

I haven't got a green thumb, it's all 'take a chance and see if it grows' for me.  My Mother and grand daughter Maegan ~ anything they put in the ground or a pot flourishes.  Maegan gave me the Crown of Thorns as a cutting and it's doing well, only because she got it started!!

Maegan and Joe at the Astros game this past weekend.

He paid a debt He did not owe, because we owed a debt we could not pay.

He paid it all.  He gave His life to purchase freedom for everyone.

. . . . . and Jesus said, "IT IS FINISHED."

Until Next Time
