I cop out every year and buy new amaryllis bulbs at the gardener's, which then bloom reliably. And I have a whole stack of gardening brochures, books, and catalogues next to the bed for spring planning.

You sure have lots of pretty pots and containers, and some nice blooms in them as well! I love the gift you put together for your daughter!<br /><br />Your garden stakes sound cool. Our daughter gave us a stepping stone with a flower on it, and the word, "grow" on it. Also, she gave us a little chair with a hole in it for a pot. Our grandson, who is almost 3 sat in it, and when I told him it wasn't really a chair, he said he wouldn't break it. His mom was concerned that he might think it was a potty chair. LOL I bought a couple kinds of bird feeders, and got another kind for free. (I posted about them today.)<br /><br />Have a great last few days of 2010. The days are getting longer now.
