RE: The Cape Primrose

in Weekend Experiences13 days ago

Your garden posts always surprise and delight me.

Partner? I don't read all your posts, but this little bit stands out. I remember your mentioning a new flame, in words that were unusually hopeful for you. I believe there was a post about lavender that went with it? I'm glad it has progressed to your planting flowers together.

My flower gardens have always sometimes looked like a mess. I meticulously plan where to put things, but of course they always take up more room than I planned for. You can imagine the result. the hardier plants survive, and the ones that will need lots of care do not. But my goal has been to create garden spaces that looks like the fairies tend them.

Love the colors on that primrose! Despite your (shit) photo. Not so (shitty) if you ask me.

I'm glad you like my gardening posts, basic though they are. Gardening has been a huge part of my life from a young age a d something that's brought great enjoyment and peace and an activity I have missed very much when not being able to do it. I'm also fortunate to have a partner (as mentioned) who enjoys the same things in this respect. It's a nice connection.

Your mention of fairies made me smile as that's sort of how I'd explain my partners strategy. We always have flowers blooming, one lot ends and the others beginning and there's lots of deep greens as well as other coloured foliage. We have brutal summers here so it's a lot of work and we are both very busy people but we work at it and work but does.

Thanks for liking my shit photos...I should have put this post in my shit photography community. 😉

haha I see the change you made here. I was thinking "did he just make a disparaging remard about weekend experiences?" I sure didn't see why. So next question: you have a shit photography community?

Yep, I posted it in the wrong community by accident. (Idiot huh?)

Yeah, I have a shit photography community where I put shit photography like in this post.
