Planting Flowers


I live in a two bedroom apartment with a western exposure deck that is about 7 x20 feet.  My two cats are plant killers—they chewed the leaves off all but three  of the last 15+ house plants.  It is not as if they lacked grass to eat. They have a 2x5 piece of sod seeded with oat grass.

We bought pansy starts and got some used flowering plants from the apartment complex gardeners.  Lea planted them yesterday.  The deck looks very colorful and green with nice flowers.

We need bigger pots and soil for the surviving plants that are root-bound.  Garage sales look to be an interesting way to upgrade.  That is not something I have done in my wheelchair.  I can easily drive Lea and Michelle around  to buy somebody else’s gently used garden supplies at a great price.

I love have healthy plants and am grateful for Lea having beautified my deck with happy flowers.  Garage sales will be fun.
