Growing Bedding Plants

Spring is another time I work hard at saving a few dollars. Sometimes I get lucky trying my hand at starting plants indoors. This looks to be one of those times.

A few weeks ago I started my Moonflowers, both with seeds I bought and with a few I managed to harvest off last summers plants.

A few are starting to break through.

I put 4 seeds in each and will split them come spring for my hanging baskets and a couple of pots. I love the fact that they bloom at night. Here is hoping all of them come up.

Next I planted some of the herbs I grow in pots in the front of my house.

These are Basil.

Yes they are thickly planted, but I will thin them down in a few weeks to only the best three or four plants.

These are Thyme and I will thin these down as well.

If all my starters come up I will be saving around $35.00 for my spring planting.

Sorry the pictures are so blurry I guess that my hands were shaking a little as I took them.

I have noticed something strange with blogs right now. There are a great many award ceremonies going on and bloggers are asking for votes so they can win a prize or two...... Hmmm, if you have to ask people to vote for you do you really deserve the prize or nomination. Just my opinion.

Everybody have a wonderful evening.

God bless.
