Welcome to the Jungle

That Guns and Roses song is song by my husband every year. It is a reaction to me bringing in my plants the night of the first frost. And this is why:

I need to bring my plants in. I have two hanging wandering jews and have NO idea where to put them.

I love it when the plants come in for the winter! It is the feeling of warmth all year... make it a great day!

Kat said...

Ummm...you have frost? We might get that in February...

I think it's lovely.

My husband is the one with the green thumb. People he works with will give him plants they think have no hope, and the end up looking like they've been double fisting the Miracle Grow!

I, on the other hand, am currently in the process of killing an ivy plant in my office.

my plants never make it.. could be my lack of watering...
hmmm.. yours look great. I love that shelf!

Storytellin' Mama said...

Oh they look beautiful... your husband is so funny, but it sounds like he's a good sport at about the new additions inside!

Fresh Mommy said...

Looks like a jungle! Fun though. I have 2 that I brought in... hoping I can keep them alive through the winter :) We'll see.

looks like a beautiful jungle, if anything. and by the way, i did not mind your pic of the snow-covered tree at all. I actually think that snow is beautiful...just hating the shoveling, the icy roads, and once the cars drive on it - it gets dirty. Pics are fabulous!!! hahaha!

He should just be happy that it's not a jungle ALL the time. I know people like that...

Jen said...

Oh I wish that I could garden. I have tried but it just doesn't work.

Frizzy and Bird said...

Oh man! Is it really that time alreadY? It's officially official. SUMMER IS OVER AND WINTER IS ON IT'S WAY. I'm bummed!

Karla said...

hahhaha....that's funny....at least its a good song.

My mom has to do the same thing....I have to take my plants to her house as well....or my cats would kill them all.

Re: your comment from yesterday to me, I need to get a blog reader set up...I keep meaning to do that...

MommyWizdom said...

Ha, my mom used to do that... and it drove Hubby insane.

Happy WW!

You are so good. I just leave mine out and let 'em die. I don't have anywhere to put them inside anyway, so I don't stress about it. Getting the fruit and vegetables off the plants and inside is another story. That's sending me into a panic at the moment.

Tiffiney said...

Wow I'm jealous..mine are all dead..I killed them...ugg my black thumb....

Rhea said...

I love that G&R song. And cute time to sing it with all those beautiful flowers inside!! I can't believe it's cold enough to do so though. We're still very warm during the day here. ugh
