" WITH EVERY BREATH I PLANT THE SEEDS OF DEVOTION. I AM A FARMER OF THE HEART" In the course of Urban life there are those of us with a Farmers Heart. We have a love affair with nature. In Urban life, nature is sometimes junk and what to make of this unsightly junk mixing it with plants and flowers, reclaiming it as new furniture with a slight twist.

Christmas Cactus puts on a show.
She really put on a show this year. The rest of the year the pot sits under the cover of some big ferns in the back yard. When the buds start to show some color she is moved to center stage by the front door. People ask what kind of fertilizer do you use. None. My Grandmother always used tea on hers so that is what I do. Red Rose Tea. after we use the tea bag I cut them open and sprinkle the leaves on the plant. I will be transplanting her to a new pot the one she is in is broken. I like plastic for the Cactus, Grandma had hers in a wash tub That would be fun. Happy New Year Yall.
