Spring Flowers

When I was readying the garden for winter, I decided to try to save my geraniums. I put 2 in the cellar in darkness and took 2 to work to put in the library windows. (I have one entire wall of windows with full morning sun.)

Yesterday I brought the geraniums up from the cellar to see if they could be resuscitated. I trimmed off all the dead leaves, watered them and put them on the front porch for some afternoon sun.

The library geraniums need nothing but adoration.


I will take a picture again in July to see who survives the summer.

  1. Uh - maybe you should have taken them all to the library?

    I have some on my terrace that I'm sure didn't make it through the winter. They look like those in your cellar!

  2. Interesting. My neighbor told me to leave my pansies and mums in the ground and they'll come back. My pansies have revived beautifully.
