Welcome to Debbie-Dabble Blog!!
I am so happy you decided to stop by!!
Blogging has always been a stress reliever for me along with an avenue to share my passions which are my home and my garden.....
I
feel it is a personal Journal that, hopefully, someday, my Twin
Granddaughters will be able to look back on to learn about who I
was....
I will be posting 3 times a week on MONDAYS, THURSDAYS and SATURDAYS....
As always, click on each picture if you would like to enlarge it....

A NOTE ABOUT COMMENTS
I
enjoy reading your comments and will return the favor by visiting and
commenting on your blog or reply to you directly here if you do not have
a blog but I do have my comment section set to Moderation due to
spammers and hackers so your comment will not appear immediately...
And since I have a very busy life, like most of us do, it may take me awhile to return your comments but I promise I will....

In my last post, I shared my azaleas, when they were in full bloom....
Along with the Senior Social Club that I belong to Spring Fling Luncheon....
Click HERE if you missed that post!!
And now for a few Personal Notes...
For the New Year, I am trying something different with my 3 times weekly posts....
On THURSDAYS,
I will feature what I cooked and ate during the week, showcasing local
cuisine and a few recipes for things that I actually made...
I decided that on SATURDAYS, I will showcase What I Have Been Up To in the past week, sharing events and places I went to, if any....
On MONDAYS, I will be featuring What I Have Bought or Been Gifted Recently, if anything...
Since it is MONDAY, I decided to share that I finally bought my annuals for the Summer as it looks like we are over the risk of frost........
I also want to share where I planted them in the front yard.....
12
marigold's, 6 coleus, 6 red impatiens, 4 red begonias,4 pink begonias, 6
purple impatiens and 6 pink impatiens....
44 plants.....
For $24.13......
These are what I picked out for the front yard, keeping with my color theme of red, yellow and orange....
These I bought for the pots in my back yard....
I did have one red impatien left over from the front yard....
I will share these in another post....
Front Yard
The flower bed under the Living Room window in the front of the house......
Four coleus in this flower box on the side of the flower bed by the front porch.....
They will fill in nicely like they do every year.....
There was some ground sedum that started growing on the moss on the rug in front of the pillar....
I transplanted it in the flower bed behind the frog.....
The hostas are growing nicely in the pots.....
On the wall between my house and my neighbor's.....
Two yellow marigolds and one orange one planted in this pot....
Three red impatiens planted in this pot.....
I planted more marigolds in this pot....
Hopefully, the marigolds will not be eaten by slugs like last year....
The flower bed on top of the slope.....
The azaleas are now finished blooming and are losing their blooms.....
I planted two coleus in this pot....
Once they start to grow, I will pinch off 2 pieces and propagate them in this pot.....
Columbine reseeded itself from a neighbor's yard and this one is growing behind the azalea and is starting to bloom....
More blooms are opening on my Rhododendron.....
I accidentally caught this butterfly in the picture....
I have a nest inside of here of baby Grackles......
They do make quite a lot of noise.....
Two red begonias were planted in here.....
More columbine....
Two red impatiens planted in this red vintage watering can.....
Three marigolds in this pot....
The stones and water in this clay saucer are for the bees....
Three marigolds in this planter....
This red azalea is still in bloom....
Another columbine in bloom.....
My next door neighbor's yard.....
Missouri Primrose growing and will bloom in June.....
Also some asters....
Another columbine with white flowers in bloom....
Again.....
44 plants for only $24.13.....
I may buy 2 more flats of impatiens for the back yard, which I will be sharing soon.....

Hi Debbie -- A beautiful assortment of plants -- I love dwarf French marigolds and coleus. You have quite a variety of planters -- that makes for an interesting look. Hope you have time to sit back and enjoy looking at all your hard work.
