Alyssum @$1.99 from Lowes: got a pack of six. It had lovely white flowers and beautiful fragrance. Re-potted @3 in my green container & 2 in on of the hanging basket which i plan to report again in the Costco empty salad plastic box.
But it is stange after repotting it.... the plants have totally given up on flowering. There is not even a single flower now...maybe its working on its roots...hope so...wish so!!
The sun decided to shine more regularly in April which resulted in my tiny white flower blanket.
Snapdragon @$1 from Lowes (11 feb'10).... poor thing was badly root bound and without water since days... soil was very dry but i thought i could try to revive it.... $1 was not a bad deal. I got it home, next day nearly tore off half its roots as the container i had planned to re-pot it (my Costco salad plastic box) was half the height of the container in which i got snapdragon. I was not very hopeful of the outcome....but it showed no signs of shock and looks beautiful hanging out from my patio. Just love it.
They grew at a speed and i had to tie them together so that the stems dnt break. It has been windy lately and most of the flowers have broken off.
Zonal Geranium @$ 1.50 (22feb'10) from Walmart at Roseville. have re-potted it in a similar container as snapdragon. It did not show any sign of shock but i really dnt know if it will live. As similar to snapdragon its soil was dry dry dry & the leaves were yellow and had holes in them. my only hope was i saw few new leaves so maybe it might live...but too early to say. ..... dnt have any pictures yet ..will post later. Even the color of this Geranium is a mystery..i wish it is pink or red...lets see.
what color will the flower be was still a suspense!!!
