Hello,
I am a great believer in reusing and recycling,
however, that belief can make life more difficult rather than simple and smooth
flowing. Flower pots to do not often go in the garbage at my house,
consequently I have a stash in the garage ready for use at any time.
This morning I looked for two pots to
use for the two other violet stems that are growing in the lone pot. The violet
leaves are hanging in a lackluster droop. Could they be too crowded? I have
potting soil, but alas only one of the pots on hand seemed to be the proper
size for new growth possibility. To make do, should it be bigger or smaller? At
the moment a smaller one caught my eye. Because of the coolness in the
unattached garage, the potting soil and the two new pots, one of the really is
new, are now residing in the bathroom closet to warm up and keep them out of my
line of vision. Clutter is not tolerated for long before my brain is stressed
and complaining.
Because I do not know much about
violets and transplanting, an internet search is in order. What did we/I do back
in the days when there were no computers? I remember talking to a number of
people until I found a successful violet grower and siphoning off knowledge
along with encouragement and a bolstering of possibilities. It did not always
work as planned, but it was good for the soul. Sometimes I was given even more than
I asked for.
There are some beautiful violets at
the church. I scrutinized them yesterday, looking for hints of the best way to
proceed. I did not learn much, but that the people who were sitting close were
great at causing the death of violets. Now the internet fills many information
needs, but no talking is allowed. Perhaps that is why I now spend so much time
talking to myself.
