Weekend plans

So my weekend was thoroughly successful :) Between the three of us, we managed to clean the house from top to bottom…and we even mowed the lawn. Note to self: NEVER let the grass get that long again. Lordy, lordy Janelle.

I jumped up the back and started fussing with some of the Creeping Jenny plants. By locating some of the smaller plants, I was able to separate them and move them around a little bit. The creeping jenny has covered the front of the garden beautifully, but I want it to spread backwards aswell…so i’m just lending a helping hand ;)

I also managed to create my Terrarium! The Wee-b had suggested that I use a glass container that was gifted to us by Linda and Bill. Apparently…it’s a fly catcher! We are missing the glass top, but it’s definitely the perfect little container for a neat terrarium and now it’s being used and on display.

We headed out to Wolftrap Nursery on Saturday evening to pick out a Bonsai tree for the littleb as a late birthday present. While we were there I grabbed a couple Dwarf Asparagus Ferns, some Golden Spike Moss and a single White Rabbits Foot Fern to add to my terrarium…I also found a little fishing mudman – how could i say no?

I won’t go into the step by step details of how to put together a terrarium, as there are more than enough pages on the web dedicated to that already…but I did follow the instructions I found here and went with fresh and dried moss as opposed to charcoal as my terrarium is not going to be completely closed.

      Thanks Mum! Now to just keep everything alive. This weekend we will be having a funeral ceremony for Palm Fritte :(
