Day 27 NaPoWriMo 2022

Ooops! Night slipped away and I almost forgot to post!

If you look at yesterday’s post you’ll see some of the hair I scattered in the garden to deter the salad bar fans. First picture here, is one of the new primroses just after planting. It lost probably three quarters of its leaves. The second photo shows the other fancy primrose (must be extra tasty!) after the first night. It lost more the next night until I rummaged up some chicken wire to tent over both of them.

In other news, I got my palette ready for painting whatever geraniums come this way this year!
