Put flowers outside my windows

this goal will be much easier to attain again, and not accidentally this time.

This morning I put one of my planters out on the small balcony. No need for special brackets or anything like that.

If only I weren’t broke I would buy some begonia tubers.

or give up?

Through no effort of mine, there are poppies blooming in the otherwise crappy-looking yard.

I also determined that there is no way I can get window boxes on these windows without the assistance of a very fetching ladder.

my capucine flowers ! And they have many brothers and sisters on their way !

We have a new little parc very close to my appartment. And there is a “shared garden” into it, which means people from the block can use a little space to grow whatever they want.

Having learnt that, I searched how to participate, and was finaly invited, last saturday, to meet the other people and decide who will have which parcelle. Kind of a bobo happening, for those who know what a parisian bobo is… very nice. I ended sharing the 8th parcelle (which we chose because their’s a bench right in front of it) with a very nice woman, who’s got a nice 8 years old girl. I’m sure we will have fun. I can’t wait. I’ll post a pic of the parcelle as soon as I can.

Pretty ?

And also, tadam !, I’m now sharing a piece of garden with a very nice woman and her family, in the little parc close to my house. You’ll sure hear about that soon.

in second window box died. Too much water I guess. I’m learning growing flowers is a science, not just something you can choose to do.

Just got seeds in my mailbox, though, from an add. Capucines de Lobb. Let’s try that.

I bought two window boxes a few weeks ago, soil, and seeds. Then, one of the two window boxes was reversed by the workers outside. But soon, I’ll get flowers !
