Every year I have four geranium hanging baskets decorating
my front porch. So let me talk about my plant children. Why do I call them children? Well, even though my thumb is far from
green these plants are approaching school age. Even though Virginia weather is mild, it’s not exactly mild
enough to keep them out all year.
So every year in the fall I take them down and put them in my basement
by the sliding glass doors.
The geraniums that are hanging as I write are 5 years
old. Yes, they last from year to
year! How many of you just toss
them out at the end of the summer?
I also take in my hibiscus and mandavilla and they are going
on 2.
G is for geranium.
