I’d Love a Greenhouse

A coworker and I were talking about gardening a few weeks back and she mentioned that she and the kids were starting some sunflowers to put outdoors. I lamented that I haven't grown sunflowers in years since I really don't have a place that receives enough sun. She brought me a little seedling today and told me I should try growing it in a pot on my little back porch. That was so thoughtful, but the poor little guys seems awfully small. I wish I had purchased that small greenhouse at the local craft store that Nina and I saw a few years ago. It would be perfect to nurse this poor little guy along until he's strong enough to survive outside in a Colorado summer.

A store I've written about on here before, Online Discount Mart, has some Greenhouses very similar to the one I wanted back then. I've glad they're still available and I will definitely be getting one soon. While looking for greenhouses, I couldn't help but notice all the great new products they've gotten for summer—flags, statuary, birdbaths and lots more. They carry such a vast array of great items for the garden and the home. I'm still going to get a garden gnome from them, too.

I just noticed they have a Tips & Ideas section in their sidebar. I'm going to go peruse those links and see what great information they have to share.
