The Dutch are famous for hydrangeas

05/13/2017 by Holly

Got to be a fact. And if not, well, let’s make it one.

I’m perpetually amused by the flags feature on the blog. You can look and see where visitors are coming from. Hate to brag, buuuuut, I’m very big in United Arab Emirates and Ukraine.

 

Hello hacking community.

Welcome.

There is nothing for you here. Just a small-audience garden blog about a mildly-boring suburban family.

But since I have your attention, I have a favor. If you are into any state secrets, could you please encourage our president to stop acting crazy?

с благодарностью,

Holly

 

Take a look at this international beauty my mom brought me from her adventures in Holland:

The hydrangeas have just popped around here and I knew just what to do.

Pray the bitties would actually be gentle and not just promise to be gentle.

This vaguely cohesive post is brought to you by Welch’s fruit snacks. The fruit snack for the under-7 crowd.

I am quite pleased with the result. {Spoiler: the result is outside –> inside, as is the goal with all of my gardening endeavors, be they flowers or food. “HOW DO I GET THIS GOODNESS IN ME.” -Brian Regan}

Not too shabby. Whaddya think, Alexei?

Oh, hi there

I'm Holly from zone 7b.
My veggies grow above ground where the rabbits help themselves, and the flowers grow in ground where the children help themselves. Sometimes I wish I was a pioneer. Then I move the clothes from the washer to the dryer and think better of it.
