Welcome Home......


When I saw her at the grocery store yesterday....
I knew she had to come home with me....
And....
I knew the perfect spot...
And the perfect container...

I do believe...
She looks fabulous there...
No direct sunlight...
But...
Plenty of natural light...
Hopefully...
She will flourish ♥️

Hope you all had a great day....
Still in the cool temps here....breezy....cloudy....few rain drops...
Had a wonderful day with Miss V....
Two bike rides...nice long nap....play doh and a tea party!

Think we might take off tomorrow afternoon for the cottage...
Enjoy the warmer temps coming in!

Hope you have a great evening...

Cheers! :o)

  4. A Maiden Hair Fern. I have never heard of that. I expect it will grow like crazy under your thumb. Have a great time at the cottage. I have another family birthday this weekend. Hugs, Deb

    1. Oh dear...there is a vent under my stand! Darn! Do I have to move her?

      Delete
    2. Oh, I don't know....maybe it won't bother her through the stand. If she starts looking cranky I'd move her...just keep an eye on her. When the heat is on in the winter, that might dry her out too much, though. I'd just watch her. She sure is lovely!

I always feel like smiling when I look at your photos. Enjoy the extended weekend at the cottage, I'm just preparing for my BF's birthday brunch here tomorrow with kids and grandkids.
