The small things

 When one spends time tending a place, one knows the small things in said place.  Corona Grows has many beautiful small things that I watch and admire each time I visit. 

This plant whose name I don't yet know promises to climb up the greenhouse side.

 These pretties are doing well with regular watering.


 Yellow like sunshine.  So tall and eye catching.  I love touching them when I work on the north side of the garden.
 This garden has many nooks and crannies, habitats of sorts.  It is perfect for those needing variety.

Inside the greenhouse

After a first round of cleaning.  Soon it gets another visit from the fairy godmothers with their garden gloves and trash bags. 



Please sit down

The tired and sweaty workers needed a few chairs to sit in during the water breaks and resting moments.

Julia used an existing chair frame and set out to use her scraps of wood and added the seat.

And I had been keeping an eye out for sales at Target.  These blue beauties came home with me recently.
I think we are going with blue.

Ruellia


This hardy plant borders the east door of the greenhouse.
It's adds color and texture to that part of the garden.

Fruit Trees

There are several.  This is the promising peach tree.
