With nothing planned for this afternoon, I decided to go visit Sam's Farm nursery on Route 7 near Falls Church. For one reason or another I had not been there yet this year.
They have wide variety of plants, shrubs and garden decorations.
I feel like a kid in a candy store every time I go there. I want this and this, and this... Meadow rue is so beautiful. Just a picture this time will have to suffice.
Love this green horse. Everything seems to be growing so well at Sam's Farm.
This dude looks just like my dad :)
Elephant. Or is it a mammoth?
Mammoth detail...
My purchase: black salvia, perennial verbena, toad lily and one more flower I do not know the name of. Did I keep the tag??? And exactly where I should plant them?
I really did not need any more plants, but cannot help but get something when I'm in nurseries. I guess some people have the same feeling in shoe or department stores. Then in comparison my obsession is not as costly. This black salvia was the most expensive purchase and only $10.
At first I did not have a clear idea where everything would go. After some plant musical chairs in my front yard, everything is in ground and well watered. Grow well now!

I think you'd really have to twist yourself into pretzels to call gardening a bad habit. Glad you had fun at Sam's Farm!
ReplyDeleteWell, it was pointed out to me yesterday that dinner time is heavily affected by my gardening activities... ha!
