The first thing I did when I got home...

[Snowwark]

from the cottage last night, was to go outside and check my pots, all 30-something of them. Imagine my shock and dismay when I saw that the majority looked extremely wilted, parched, and in some cases terminal. We had lined up a guy that works for DH to come and water them everyday. Obviously he didn't. I admit I cried (and ranted), as I frantically watered them all. I can only hope that some extra special TLC will revive some of them.

Now I'm afraid to leave them again!

Oh Kim I am so sad for you. Some people do not understand outdoor potted plants. They think if you water it once it's set for a week.

We love and nurture them as if they were part of us, only to find disappointment when we return home from our vacations. Sending Pixie Dust that they can bounce back.

My daughter is away for the week and I have plant duty. I have weeded (was not part of my job) but I couldn't stand the weeds. Fertilized, who know the last time this was done, and watered them every day. These plant will be in better condition when she arrives home.

A little water goes a long way! Don't despair - they will bounce back!!!!!

Sending you loads of hugs to chase those worries away!!!

I have been there too. It is amazing how watering brings them bouncing back to life. You may lose some ground - but probably not lost the battle.

Welcome home by the way Kim!

EEK....

I was supposed to water them EVERY day!!!!????



Actually.... sorry to hear that my friend! I am quite certain with some "Snowwark" charm and a bit of H20, they will bounce back quickly!!!

What a creep!!!

I hope you can save them!

Snowwark - So happy you are back and hopefully had a nice long weekend but so sorry about your plants. Sending pixie dust your way with the faith that they will quickly return to vigor with your TLC and H20!
