It's coming.....

I looked at the mountains on my drive home,

there was a light dusting of snow.

I pulled over and too this picture and realized that

I would be injoying the

last days of warm sunny weather

 and there are things that need

to be done before the real snow sets in.

I know that I'm tired of the heat we've experienced, but

am I ready for what's to come....

 

This is my Jasmine..........

it nearly perished from the heat

when I was on vacation.

My instructions for watering were not

made clear, and she suffered......

I'm hoping she will

recover and bless me with

those wonderful flowers that

smell so sweet.

 My Gardenia......she nearly went the way

of her many predessors..this past winter

I had her up high where the hot air

rises and was in line with a ceiling fan.

This was necessary because of a

certain feline that was in the house.

(said feline peed on my previous Gardenia

and killed it, there's nothing like

cat piss to kill anything living-

and to strip paint.......no kidding)

She was in a perfect place all summer,

 where it was wet and shady, and she revived nicely.

I'm hoping to take better care of her

this winter.

This is my Tangerine tree, she is

still on the deck, I'm making room

for her..........
