Here they are again

 


The Crackpot with the cell phone just can't stop documenting the crack in the pot.
You know I will be documenting when the crack in the pot has blooms


the plants have more than doubled in size. 


Check out the shadows on this shot. I water them with my milk jug sprinkler
Bob drilled holes in the lid, I slapped a few flowers on it and it looks as happy as the flowers

These are the best photos of it YET!! It looks like the crack is meant to be there and was made that way, and there are already some blooms coming in it. So pretty and sunny.

You did a wonderful job with that cracked pot!

this idea is so beautiful... the mama pondered about cracking a pot to get such a fab flower pot too... but probably it ends with a pot-puzzle what not even da dad can solve with duct tape...

We can't get over how fast stuff grows where you are. It seems like only last week you were putting the plants into the pot. Just be pleased that triffids are fictional - imagine what they could achieve in your climate (or in your cracked pot). xxx Mr T (F is green with envy - only green thing around here this time of year.)

Hello,

Your plants and the cracked pot are doing great. I love the view of your front porch.
Take care, enjoy your day!

Ann said...

Both plants looks wonderful. That was a great idea planting in that crack. It looks like it was made for that.

You cracked pot is very interesting, I would have just tossed the whole thing, thinking that nothing would grow in it. I love your entryway.

Such a good idea to just use that cracked pot as it is :)

Wow, your flowers have really taken off.They are a really bright spot for your yard.
The orchids in that 1989 photo are gorgeous...you have the perfect "Greenhouse" in that entryway.
Hope this week will be a good one for you

You have done a great job with your cracked pot and it's wonderful how quickly the plant has grown. Your water sprinkler is inventive and the plants will appreciate drops of water and care. Love your cactus something I would like to grow.
