Spring Fever

Well, it's come to my attention that I've been a very poor blogger recently (OK, for the last 5 months, really). But I'm going to try to be better. Really.

In today's post, I'd like to share my new garden digs with people. Many days ago, Milo's person came to visit. (It was great!!) She and my person went away one morning, and came back with a huge bag of dirt and a bunch of flowers. They spread it all out on the floor of our back room, and a few hours later, our balcony was transformed. My person went back a week later and got more plants, so now we have a little urban garden.

On the left, you can see the flowerboxes that we now have. They are full of purple and pale yellow petunias, as well as lobelia, "pony tail grass" (which is really tasty), and trailing plants.




Here, I'm trying to pose in front of one of our arrangements, but I kept getting antsy and walking away. Around me, you can see the two pots of mint and lots of purple flowers. (I can't remember the names of all these things.)




We also have some hostas and some other blooming flowers that are supposed to grow tall. I like the hostas.








I also really like this plant with the spikey leaves. I keep biting it, and my person gets mad. I can't help myself though.








Both Other Cat and I like to sit out there. Here I am on the chair, and we are both watching a bird on our roof. It's like the Sierra Club out here!
