Happy Wednesday! Summer is vacation time which means not only making preparations for your travels but also your home and garden while you're gone. I live in Texas and being away from my garden for a week could mean coming home to dead plants--that's no fun! No worries, I have learned a few precautions to help keep your flowers fresh while you're gone...

I save wine bottles for my larger container plants. They hold more water than watering orbs and I try to repurpose/recycle in the garden whenever I can. Just fill with water, invert, and push them firmly into the plant. Easy peasy!

These really are great ideas. I love the wading pool for plants!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda! You know how hot it gets in Texas :) Blessings, Cecilia
ReplyDeleteA wading pool is a great idea! I must say that wine glasses look nicer than 2 litter soda bottles. :) I'm in Southern California and we don't get much rain so these are great ideas. Thanks!
