So, we're working on a redecorating job, and I needed something that I couldn't find at the local hardware stores.
A trip to the nearest Big Box store was in order.

The closest entrance is through the garden center.
It would be rude to ignore all the beautiful, colorful things they have lined up, inside and out...right?
I try never to be rude.

So, I got this strawberry. Three, actually. I've never grown strawberries.
It's labeled 'Strawberry quinault'.
I did some research online. ALL of the things I found said strawberries have small WHITE flowers and red berries.

But, look at that beautiful deep rose bloom. And, those dark green, glossy leaves.
Even if I hadn't been inspired by Diana at Sharing Nature's Garden, to get some strawberries, I would NEED this plant.
I even think I'm going to plant it in a flower bed, inside the Fenced Yard.
Would that work? Do any of you have strawberries with red-ish blooms?

Willow, of course, had to come over to see if he approved.
I'm going to pot up those tomatoes, in bigger pots, to give them a head start on the season.
That means moving them in and out when the nights are too cold.
I suppose Willow approved. He'll probably be right there with Maggie, helping me plant.
Oh...I also got some more Mexican Feather Grass for the new Driveway Bed. And, some Ruby Chrystal Grass.
They had a good price on those...better than when I bought them before.
They have an orange logo.
The day is going to be gorgeous. Clear, sunny and maybe 80 degrees!
Painting bathroom cabinet doors, just might have to wait.
Happy Gardening...
