{Verbena in White for Fiberglass Window Boxes}

We've changed plants inside our bay window Fiberglass Window Boxes. 

Here they are: White Verbenas

We used to have pink verbenas but we lost them while being for 2 weeks in Europe, for attending a wedding... It was hay when we got back home.

Pink no longer works well with our Benjamin Moore Golden Mist color for the exterior...

Photos are from May 19...

Looking promising! Even though the above is not a pure white in my opinion but a silver...

This is perfect and very healthy.

They got all sold as being Aztec White Verbena

{Oakleaf Hydrangea}

We did have a potting plant in the greenhouse with an Oakleaf Hydrangea in it. So that too came out to live on the patio by mid april.

Happily blooming on the patio!

Look how huge its leafs were on April 4, while still residing inside the greenhouse.

My hand for comparison...

For adding some potting soil, re-potting and bringing them up the hill towards the gazebo and the house, this utility cart is very practical. Even for attaching it behind the John Deere lawn mower.

Walking downhill with potting plants inside goes far easier than pulling it uphill...

Over the year we need lots of potting soil as our local soil is very poor.

Still, the greenhouse + potting soil and some tender care does yield this!

Always rewarding to see things bloom!

{Our Staghorn Fern - Platycerium Bifurcatum Back Outside}

Our baby Staghorn Fern - Platycerium Bifurcatum is back outside in the garden! We brought it back from dear friend Natacha in Miami, last year June.

 Looking happy after its overwintering time in the green house.

Photo got taken on May 19.

From the link below you can see how Pieter had the tree cutters slice off a part of this trunk where it is tied to.

One day it might become too big for bringing back and forth to the greenhouse...

But till then, we enjoy it!
