I get a sense of satisfaction when I recycle unique things into serviceable items. The “dog fence” became a trellis. (Well, it will be a trellis when Sweet Peas climb on it next Spring and Summer.) Yesterday I was able to use the unused threaded pipe, from the dog fence, as an extension between the two A-frame plant hangers. Furthermore, the actual plant “hangers” were salvaged from last years totally worn out Topsy-Turvy upside-down planters. See the identical on the new Topsy-Turvy upside-down tomato planter. ~~ Remember, I recycled baby-bed-springs for another trellis?! ~~ So you see I’m not limited to rescued plants, or remodeled satellite dishes. I save coffee grounds from my office (for the garden).
It was a cloudy day, with a modest half-inch of rain. The temperature reached 70 degrees. (Tomorrow: only 60 degrees–with abundant rain.) It was pleasant in the yard this afternoon as I sprinkled grass seed and covered it with planter soil (the last of the seed). It is a mystery to me why I didn’t plant the area near the Bluebird house when I planted grass seed directly outside my patio doors. There’s an old saying “Too soon old, too late smart.”
