Friday brought a truck to work, and now sore shoulders, YIPPIE! The whole trailer of the truck was for us. The nice thing was it only took us 2 hours to unload the truck. Now we have all kinds of fresh plants to sell. Some of the tree hydrangeas are in bloom. The blooms have got to be pretty close to the size of my head. I do find myself to be pretty fond of the classic grandiflora. Nice and white, and it finishes with a blush, also gorgeous dried. I had a woman come up to me at work one day asking what was that tree with the white flowers called. I pointed to a hydrangea, she said that was it. I told her what it is, and she was just in love with it. She told me she was from Texas, and she had never seen them before. I guess hydrangeas are more of a New England shrub. Has anyone seen them down south? In Texas? I have to wonder if it gets too hot, or maybe they would just prefer the shade more in the south?
I will have to go on a mission to find a really nice old hydrangea to take a picture of.
The gardening season is getting close to finishing, so I am out looking for the winter job. I have worked as a barista the past two winters. I have loved the job, and the great customers, but the environment, behind the scenes was not good. I did work with some really great ladies, but I won't say more. So I have filled out applications, a few at coffee shops looking to hire. Hopefully I will hear back soon. There is still two more months of actual gardening, but most people are not completely convinced they can garden in October.
It's all good!
Now I need to get ready to drive up to my dad's for a BBQ. Can't wait to see him, my brother, sister, Sue and her kids. Must remember to not be so shy with the camera.
Have lots of fun today!
