On a (crazy, embarrassing) side note: Today I called my landscaper-extraordinaire to lament the state of the boxwoods on my front walk. After a variety of pointed questions about the nature of their potential disease (browning, crunchy leaves), she suggested that perhaps I should try water.
Um, scarily, that didn't occur to me. I mean, we're experiencing the longest dry-spell ever?! I have watered just about everything else but these are on a side patch of land and they miss the sprinkler.
Really, though...

Thanks for reminding me about the benefits of the weather I'm returning to tomorrow -- no watering required as Nature has an automatic sprinkler going!
ReplyDeleteLove that orange setting -- so inviting there in that shade. . .
Ha ha! When you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras. When you see crunchy leaves, think water!
ReplyDeleteI'm deeply enamoured of that drinks trolley ...
ReplyDeleteThat's hilarious—and tragic about the boxwoods! LOL:(
ReplyDeleteI love orange, anywhere. Especially on that table, though.
Oooo, orange for outside. Never would have thought... but I like!
ReplyDeleteHehehe... that's a riot! But, I do not judge. I can't keep a plant alive. Weekly flowers are all I can handle!
ReplyDeleteMater: Lately, we don't have the watering issue either.
ReplyDeleteWendy: Oh, it's all so easy from the cheap seats :-)
tiffany: I know!
E: Orange is a beautiful, cheerful outdoor element. Who would have thought it...
Sewn: I know (see comment above). I always think of yellows and greens for outside. Now I'm starting to reconsider.
Stacy: Weekly flowers are nothing to scoff at. You need to have vases and the ability to arrange and the will to throw them out past their prime!
