Last week we went succulent and cactus shopping. Ive been wanting to start a cactus garden forever. And while I ended up just potting these all in pots and not actually starting my real cactus garden, I love them all so much. Succulents are my favorite plants. All the different textures and shapes just make me so happy. My new favorite one is the little one with all the little circle ends, its called Baby Toes! How cute is that?
Violet was my gardening partner. She hung out with me while I dug out all my mom's old clay pots and re-filled them with fresh dirt. Getting my hands in the dirt is one of my favorite feelings in the world.
I love that every pot I have was one of my mom's old pots. She LOVED to garden... like LOVED TO GARDEN. So it's special to me that all my plants are in her pots. I remember when I worked for her after high school (for 8 years) I would show up (it was at her house) and almost every other morning during the spring and summer she would pull me out to see her garden before starting work. She was so giddy about it. I wish I could show her all my little plants now...
