Week Eight

Photos from the eighth week in the garden are up, spanning May 2-8, and have been tagged "Week Eight" in my Gardening 2010, Part Two album in my Picasa Web Albums.

I had to start a new album in Picasa Web Albums, because the maximum number of photos allowed in one album is 1,000 (lame).

On another note, this week I was a little-less obsessive compulsive with the garden photos, and didn’t shoot any all week, instead opting to shoot only on Saturday.

It's getting too hot in the original bed for the begonias I bought in a 24-pack from Houston Garden Center. So, I pulled two of the best ones out and surrounded the one I left on the porch in this new container that previously held a strawberry, that I planted in the ground. There really is no excuse for the length of that last sentence. And, I added two coleus for good measure.
