Hibiscus? I am horrible at what type of flowers.
I was wondering too 🤔 😂Hibiscus? I am horrible at what type of flowers.
One of the most common annuals out there - Marigold! We have tons of seeds year after year. The plants will quickly sprout up from “fresh” seeds or ones saved from years ago.Hibiscus? I am horrible at what type of flowers.

How wonderful. He'll love her. He'll probably try to make a tomboy out of her though. Then the two of them in cahoots are better at driving the parents nuts 😜Good morning/afternoon all.
It's a warm sunny day here.
I didn't get to see Isaac last night, as the evening was cancelled, because his mum went into labour resulting in the arrival of a baby girl at 1a.m. this morning.
Isaac hasn't seen her yet, he was with his grandma when they left for the hospital, and he's been in nursery all day, so I don't know what he'll make of her when he gets home and finds a baby is there to stay. He wanted a brother so hopefully he won't be too disappointed with a sister.
We'll see!
I hope you're all having a good Thursday. TTFN
An old wives tale says plant them around your garden and they will keep rabbits out. I don't know if I believe that or not. I can't see a meer marigold plant stopping a wild rabbit from eating carrot tops 😁Are Marigolds tortoise safe?

You can buy hay with marigolds in for rabbits so can't see them being much of a deterrent 😊 unless of course the French marigolds work.An old wives tale says plant them around your garden and they will keep rabbits out.

Speaking of being 15.When I was 15, I tried to grow plants in my room. My mom who had plenty of flower gardens.....caught me when I lied and told her the little plants were Marigolds. I can picture her face as she said: "mari-WHAT?
I knew the gig was up... & every time there is talk of them I am reminded. 😆
Dark and cloudy weather in the Nook here today! I got some yard work done then added a support system for some of my garage shelves.....i had originally tried to use blocks for some spans but it did not work and the shelves bowed when loaded with heavy bins.
This system adds the wood support for the top row of shelving and gives me a anchor point to hang the lower shelves without intruding into my vertical shelf units or workspace.
