Planted up 4 pots of Amaryllis,3 more big pots of Caladiums, pulled tons of weeds, got my 2 BIG Mandevilla's potted w/ trellis, A nice man gave me 2 big chunks of tree that look like stumps so we placed them where I want my Fairy and Gnome gardens "I promise I will get them done soon if we don't get washed away by rain. Just wanted to let you all know we are finally getting a little accomplished WHEW !!!!

Elizabeth, if you see the flower stalk coming up don't cut, but the leaves if you want to make tidy!

Thank you everyone for the nice comments on my tulips!

Here are some of the smaller plants that moved to the new "craft room/office. Please ignore any mess on bottom of pic as there is still things scattered every where. I'm slowly finding a path again. You can see all the metal shelves lined up.

Well the baby spiders aren't potted up yet they are still treading water in the salad box in the kitchen. Things have been crazy this week, worked long hours Wed. so had to recouperate some. Been moving the rooms/should say junk from one room to the other and other room's stuff to the other and old apple boxes out of here again. I found a new metal shelf at consignment shop that matches 3 other ones I have so started the move last Friday night about 10 PM til 3 or 4 AM then more late night, early mornings all week. Here is the old/new home for the Christmas cactus.
