Because it rained a lot in early spring, grass and flower beds are thriving. Poinsettias love the hot, humid weather. I actually considered throwing away my smaller poinsettia plant but it had one leaf. Since it fought so valiantly for its sole leaf, I put it outdoors next to the larger poinsettia. It has grown many green leaves. I thought I would summer the orchids outside also. The very day I put the orchids outside, we got hail which damaged and pock marked the leaves. Even so, I know they are happier out in the hot humid weather. My daughter brought the hosta plants from her home 500 miles away. I planted them and they are shooting out flowers. I planted impatiens in the front of the house and placed a combo pot that my children gave me for Mom's Day. I think I need a greenhouse. I was looking at them online along with she sheds (man cave for women). I am driving out to the farm after work for one more practice with Dorie before the Sunday show. I will practice barrel racing and backing, trotting in for show.
