Balcony Blooms!

The long weekend proved to be very good for our garden as I also got our balcony boxes replanted.  The heather was supposed to withstand some dryness but clearly not as much as I gave it!

I've given up on the idea of growing from seed up there and took the kids to the garden centre for these lovely red blooms on Saturday.  With a few extra steps on the fitbit carting the boxes up and down the stairs, I got them all planted and with the heat we're experiencing at the moment, they're getting water daily. 

The colour really brightens the place up and puts a smile on my face when I get home.
