Hiya friends!
Last Friday, the Mr. went to dinner with a friend, so I took the opportunity to stroll around the house looking at my plants.
Y’all, my hostas are looking amazing!!
That’s a side of the house I rarely visit, so I was quite shocked to see the progress they’d made since I posted about them last month.
Here’s a photo from that blog post – just so you can compare. The third plant down grew so much, and wait until you see the last hosta in the line.
This entire flower bed has clay beneath the mulch. Planting the hostas was a BEAST of a job. The Mr. dug every single hole, and I supplemented with extra soil and fertilizer. We didn’t think they’d last long. The last plant in the row looked like it was gone forever.
Here’s what I saw Friday.
Forgive the weedy grass growing around it. My bum shoulders have rendered me a pathetic gardener of late, but I’ve already told the Mr. that this situation must be remedied immediately before my poor babies are choked.
Anyhoo, let’s focus on the positive.
Look how big she’s grown, and she’s even got a flower (with more to come).
Here’s what she looked like in May.
But God . . .
What a beautiful reminder that no matter how tough the situation, God is still there, and by His will, life will grow and even, if you allow Him to work, bloom into magnificent beauty.
