I sing with a band and I design jewelry. I live in an apt. so I have no choice but to be a container gardner. I have over 70 plants at my front door and on my balcony. I have 22 houseplants. I can't go to the store w/o feasting on the EYE-CANDY in a "garden center" (I sometimes alter my routes so that I just happen to be in close proximity)! My kids are slightly jealous of my plants and the alarmimg rate at which I acquire new ones!. I constantly remind them that none of my plants have grown legs so they won't be getting their own drinks of water any time soon. It's very dry here and the summers are very hot.
