OH I HOPE YOU DIDN'T 'FALL OFF YOUR CHAIR...


Did you?  Are you hurt?  Are you seeing
DDOOUUBBLLEE
Shall we call 911?
After all
2 posts from me
in one week may 
be
waaaay tooooo much!
LOL
Just compose yourself and read on
Once I got this idea I couldn't stop myself!

You see, this is my front porch; I know you've seen it before
but just bear with me.
I love flowers and really full hanging baskets
(See the cute Heart Grapevine holder)
but I digress.
Anyway, the petunias seem to be struggling from lack of water
and I don't "do ladders" any more so
watering was a problem.
However
read on...



You see, I couldn't reach it
and when I did I got as much water on me as in the pot, 
so...


See that little black thing-y near the top?
That, my friends
is saving my life
and the PETUNIAS
I might add


It is called
"EASY REACH PLANT PULLEY"
"The Easy Way To Care For Your Hanging Plants!"
AND ARE THEY EVER RIGHT!
And would you believe they are 2 for $4.00


So, here my friends is the Petunia Pot, raised up to her chosen spot, just
                                                                 "chompin' at the bit"
to grow" lush and full" and make me a Happy Camper!
So guess what? When I had the Pot down to my level, surprise, I saw some little critters were
enjoying dinner on those sweet little petunias.
Well, you can't win 'em all...
Guess they need more than water
Guess I'll have to give the "critters" some, ahem, "Flavored Water!

If you want to know where I got this marvelous, non-technical
piece, just send me an E-mail.
By for now, and
do pick yourself up off the floor!!
I promise I probably can't post twice in a week again
if my life depended on it. 
 But do come back again just on the 
outside chance 
I get another inspiration!

  8. Joy,

    (Love your name)! :)

    That is just the coolest gadget! I've poured plenty water on myself watering....you must share where you got it. I never can keep petunias. I have pretty much decided on only rose moss....I simply can't kill it. It is my friend! :)

    Thank you for stopping by my blog for Sunporch Chat!

    Have a great weekend!

    Blessings,
    Tammy
