On a side note, doesn't my fuschia look nice?? I have 4 of them across my porch...one has already died and I have done NOTHING different. So, I took it down and cut it up to see if it might come back. I do not have high hopes for it. Not sure if I have mentioned before, but I have also killed my dahlias (I think they were dahlias) that were planted by the street. Ok, I think the snow killed them...I am taking it very personally though. When i thought Spring was starting a few months back, Matt and I planted some bulbs. Of what, I have no clue. We looked at them the other day, and I think I planted them upside down...maybe I don't have a green thumb after all??

The fuschia looks great! Do you give them fuschia food? They're voracious eaters and need to be fertilized every 7 to 10 days. Mine was looking pretty limp, but I fed it and the next day it looked twice as big. Just a tip in case you weren't!
And as far as the bulbs go. I'm with you there. I think my canna lilies dried up after the frost...but Dahlias don't come until later in the summer so I think you may be ok :)
You are so cute stef! I love it when you post! It sounds like you figured out a good way to make rice! (you were the one who wasn't sure how to recently, right?!) Don't be too disapointed if you kill something...3 are still alive!!!! =)Hope gardening goes well!
Stef! There are so many changes happening at your house that I'll be surprised if I recognize it! Can I come over soon and see them all?
Oh yeah -- we're home! And we missed you guys LOTS!!
Your fushcia does look great! I've tried them before.If I remember correctly, I think they don't do very well in the direct hot sun. Maybe I have it backwards..I took my pots to a greenhouse this year so they don't die from the frost we still get in late May and June.
