My flowers

Now that summer is almost coming to a close. I wanted to share, one my creative projects, I did for the summer. I decided to beautify my yard. My yard looks very bland. So I took my grandma's advice and planted some pretty flowers into the empty brick holes along the division of the yard. I picked some nice pretty pink and rich purple blooms to stand out. They look real, but are some artificial flowers.

I have already learned I am not too good with live flowers. Once, I bought a pot of blue Hydrandrias, which died with in two to three months. Problem was I should have replanted them into a bigger pot or the grass in my yard. But as you see in the photo my grass is pretty spares and dry. Instead I kept them in the pot.

But anyway I found a new way to add the beauty of flowers into my barren yard- without the green thumb. I like them. They do look almost real in the sun- don't they!? The people who walk by comment at how pretty they look. (Though sometimes after the comment, they question if are they real...)

One day I may try to plant some real flowers. Maybe I might do it right that time. But as for now, these will do.

Any body have ideas on gardening?...
