I cleaned the runnels off this fall and placed buckets underneath to collect rainwater, which I've been using to water the plants inside. |

That's a great way to garden in the rain! Looks like you are having fun in there.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Linda - it looks like a great place to hang out in and putter away, Alison! I love that begonia next to B. luxurians with the starburst-like center. Is it 'Palomar Prince"? (My husband's going to rue the day he built me that lath house - I've been on-line picking out plants from all over the place...)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the greenhouse visit; love it, love it love it! The Mangave with the severed finger and band aid box made me laugh out loud.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I had an extensive visit to your greenhouse before. I marvel at how pristine and organized it is. Love all the bird cages, especially the one with the fairy and Spanish moss.
ReplyDeleteHappiness is: germinating seeds!
I love the Gothic/Halloween type decorations you have in the greenhouse!
ReplyDeleteYou've got some truly great containers - especially the one with the Hoya!
