Bad News and Good for the Garden

22 February 2008

I was asked by the complex manager to pull my plants from the walk-way onto the bridge from the door to the walk-way, and to remove the potting supplies from that bridge; so I have done so. But there just isn't enough light on that bridge for more than one of my trees, so I'm going to have to give them away or surreptitiously plant them somewhere.

The hyacinths, BTW, have mostly done very well this season. Perhaps it was the removal of the 'mums from the pot; perhaps it was the redistribution of the bulbs within the pot; or perhaps it was something else. But the four largest bulbs have flowered very nicely. The little bulb in the center of the pot is developing at a much slower pace, but it seems otherwise to be doing fine.

  • The Plucky Li'l Bulb would be a good title for an insipid children's book.

    • Daniel says:

      Ho ho! laughed the other bulbs, You are small and we are large, little brother!

      I may seem small, said the plucky little bulb, but I too can bring beauty to the world!

      Ho ho!, they again laughed, Ho ho!

      And the plucky little bulb felt very small and lonely, but at the same time even more determined to produce at least one truly beautiful flower.
