| The Japanese Garden at NBG. Our next subject in class there! |
Hi Everyone, Yesterday, I was in Norfolk,Va. at the Norfolk Botanical Garden teaching "Hydrangeas and Spicebush Swallow tail Butterflies." I had 10 students. Pictured above are a few of the students. We used saran wrap to begin our hydrangeas. I took some flowers from home too, I had some gorgeous purple hydrangeas and Daddy had some amazing Oak Leaf Hydrangeas. At lunch Renee and I walked to the Japanese Garden and she held onto the back of my shirt as I leaned into the pond to try to capture the amazing Lotus Blossoms and Water Lilies.. Gorgeous!!! I didn't fall in! We all had a nice time. It was a lovely day!
Sadie, our lab, as you know had surgery last week on her Cruciate ligament in her knee. So, it went well. She is starting to get her energy back. We are icing it and giving her her pain meds and helping her as much as we can. I have a photo of her on facebook from after the surgery sleeping. She is coming along well.
Have a wonderful Sunday, Love to each of you,Diana
Glad to read Sadie is healing well, and you didn't fall into the pond! Beautiful photo. Wishing you all a really good week!

ReplyDeleteDear Diana -so glad Sadie is getting better. I am sure she is recovering well because of all the tender loving care she is receiving. Smiling thinking of you falling into the pond. Happy to see someone was keeping that from happening. Hugs
