Succulent Garden!

Tuesday, June 14, 2011

Want an easy care free garden? 

How about adding some succulents to your backyard. This arrangement (minus the planter from Pottery Barn) cost me about about $80. I bought all the terracotta pots at the Home Depot or the Dollar Store.

  I made them look old by thinning out acrylic paint (black, brown, green in color) with water and painting the pots gently. 

I potted them with all different types of succulents.

And now I have a center piece on my outdoor table that will last me all through the hot summer with little maintenance.




Garden: Collard Greens

I grow a garden every year and this year I added collard greens and artichokes.  My collard greens are growing like crazy!  Someone told me they think I am the only "Girl in all of Southern California growing collards in their backyard."  Ya know what...I'll take it ;)
