Geranium surprise.

Omg omg omg. Look what I got the other day. A friend had a new Geranium and it was full of seed spears. I took a few seeds and will get more in a while. We don't know if they're fertile. And we absolutely don't  know how the flower will look if the seeds are fertile. So this will be Very interesting.

*tiny happy dance* 

Random Picture Day.

"Little Lady"

Lisa.

I've got this pretty little thing in the front of my window. Grown from seeds I planted last summer. I don't know why I like this one. But I do. And you can't find it anywhere nowadays. If you look hard tho, you can find seeds. I was so happy when I did. I plan on letting this babe out in the greenhouse this summer. Hopefully she'll grow big and last a long time.

Plant ER.

Trying to save this babe.

I'm not entirely sure it will work.

But I'll try.

New babies.

The blossoming sweetie on the left is "Little Lady". She's a "compact" Geranium. Never had one of these before, so this will be interesting. She's supposed to stay fairly small, but we'll see how that goes. 

The tiny baby on the right is "Katy". This years "flavor" apparently. She was sort of an impulse buy really, but I couldn't help my self. She looked so lonely and tiny. ( And was freakishly cheap. )

I hope they'll be happy here.

Surprice.

Finally "home".

Was greeted by this awesome baby in my room.

The last of the African Violet leafs has grown.

Found 2 flowers blossoming and budding.

And only one plant died. 

Not that bad.

Because I can.

And because I like flowers.

Here's a collage of the other Geranium that bloomed.

Number 5.

So, I've had 4 flowers blooming in my window this winter. Not at the same time ofc, and one of them simply didn't stop blooming after summer ended. She's a little bit special.  Either way it's a bit unusual, but look what I found this morning. This is the second Geranium that had decided to join the game, and if she blooms will be number 5. Very exciting. Funny I din't see that when I gave them a check over the other day.

I need to start marking them all up soon. I think I have a pretty good idea of "who is who". But it's always better to have them labeled too. And I think, if I remember it correctly. That this is my special generic one. She has a sort of purple-bluish color. But I am told, there are no blue geraniums. Interesting.

Plant care.

Yesterday I had some quality time with my plants. I'm so happy every time I check on them and see that they're still alive and doing ok. They're doing much better than last winter. I wonder if it is because I've put them all near the window and maybe the light from there together with the fixture is doing them good.

Last time many of them lost a lot of leafs. But probably much to do with me forgetting to water them properly. This winter is much better. I guess it's good to buy "special" plants that you care even more about. I have a few now who if they died, would make me so miserable. Only had one death so far.

That was a flower I had duplicates of so no worries there. I do hope the remaining one stays alive tho. But now, it's tea time. My room smells of Geraniums and dirt. Nice. And I have a big cup of tea and cupcakes that are waiting for me. It's a good day.

Awh moment.

The third of my four African Violet leafs I planted quite a while ago has started to grow now. It's always such a "awh" moment when I see it. I know I tried making plants like this when I was little, but I didn't have the patience to wait for them to grow. So ofc I never succeeded. But this is now the 4:th plant I've got growing like this. Yes, I am very pleased with my self. If I may say so. The fourth leaf is still green and doesn't show any signs yet of dying so I hope in time she'll grow too.

Looking good.

Last set of buds that came during winter never made it this far.

Very promising, very promising indeed.

Winter buds.

One of my Geranium flowers have decided to bloom too. This is the third winter I'm keeping flowers here in my little dungeon. One of them did try last year, but the buds died before they got anywhere. I suspect the light they're getting is just enough to keep them alive and ( in some cases ) grow. We'll see what happens with this one. Would be nice if it blooms.

My window experiment.

Still going strong.

Haven't seen this flower bloom since last x-mas. 

Guess she likes winter.

Random Picture Day, African Violet.

Full Bloom.

Day after day.

Lovely.

Happiness in a pot.

Took care of my plants today. Real care. 

Checked everything and made sure they're looking good and feeling happy. And apparently some of them are happier than others.

Found this beauty in the front row close to the window.

And here I had a suspicion that she might not be feeling that perky. I'm happy however, to be wrong.

Still gardening.

I've got this growing in the living room window.

I plan to eat them this week.

I'm sure it will be nommy nommy.

Blossom.

First time this plant is blooming. It's a baby taken from a bigger plant from my mom. Didn't think it would produce any flowers at all. Since it's been outside all summer but never even tried. The mother plant blossomed quite well tho. So it was very nice to notice these few but precious buds after I'd moved it back inside for a few days.

Geranium galore.

It's time. The air outside is telling me so. That is, it's time to move my flowers back inside from the greenhouse. They've been living the life of kings and queens out there. Growing and blooming like crazy. It's been just wonderful to go out there and see them all. The only downside is that the air in my room hasn't been that awesome since I moved them out. Guess that will improve now. ^^

I'm a bit curious about my lack of space tho. So far I've moved most of them back in, and there's still a little room left. But I'm not sure all of the rest will fit. I will do my best ofc. But I might have to borrow some window space from my mom. The big problem is where to put my Physalis plant. It's grown quite big and I can't cut it short just yet. It's full of growing fruits. Awesomeness.

And some pics ofc. In order... The first batch of Geraniums and a before pic of my little window space. Needed some cleaning. Then an after img, or really half way. And the random unknown Geranium I bought in Lkpg. I got the color right anyway. Then my baby Apple Blossom. Most awesome to get to see it bloom. Yes I'm weird. The last 3 are also unknown but pretty none the less.

The red one is a shoot taken from my moms in laws, last summer. The bright pink one is from a plant my mom had. And the last one is not shown in it's full glory. And by that I mean it's a bad img because the flower is more to the blueish direction rather than the pink one it looks like here. All of them were in need of a "haircut". Well, haven't cut the red one yet. But I will when I move her.

Yikes. This turned out to be a long one. Oh well, happens sometimes. :)

Physalis.

Will there be a fruit inside ?

I have no idea, I sort of doubt it actually.

Another thing I'll just have to wait and see.

Looking forward to it.

The visitors.

I've got visitors for the winter. Two flowers belonging to my mom has moved in with me in Le Dungeon. They've also been standing in the greenhouse during the summer, but in a bad place of it. So they haven't been given as much attention as they would like to. Poor little pretties.

So now when it was time to move them inside, I asked if I should move them into my room. Thinking that hopefully they'll get more care and water there. She agreed. My mom is kinda forgetful about watering flowers normally. I moved them today and also gave them a haircut.

I might have to cut them down even more during the winter. That depends on how well they do in there. I can be forgetful too about watering my plants. But that usually happens when I'm feeling very bad and can't handle the depression very well. I think I've got that under control now.

Now if only I can get my bedtime hours working better I'll enjoy waking up a lot more. It would be nice to be able to just stay in bed a few min and admire the view when I wake up. But because I sleep so badly right now, I wake up too late and have to get up as soon as I'm awake. Bummer.
