I do not have a green thumb at all. Most plants and flowers I buy usually die…unless they are the kind that can tolerate going from being watered every day to being watered whenever I remember. Luckily I’ve discovered a few Julie-friendly plants and flowers to help make our house look pretty.
I did step outside the box and picked up a dahlia. I want to make sure I capture it’s prettiness before I kill it.
I also made some hanging baskets…once they fill in they’ll be pretty. I hope!
My three “helpers”
love that your :helpers" keep watch from the windows!
looks fabulous! i too have a black thumb, so when my plants thrive, i try to savor every minute of it! what a precious doggie!
Pretty flowers! I kill every plant, even the ones that are supposed to live forever!
Those pink flowers are GORGEOUS!! I LOVE them!!!!
Such cute helpers!
That dahlia is gorgeous!! Must swing by Lowes and pick one up.
I'm trying my hand at gardening this year.. it's already stressing me out.
Girl, I have a black thumb! The only thing I've managed not to kill is a camelia that was gifted to me last year. I have killed everything else I've ever purchased. My neighbor has this gorgeous yard, every English garden-esque and I want that soooo bad, but, then I remember that I cannot care for plants. Sad face.
That Dahlia is gorgeous, I think I'll be picking some up after work!
Your house is gorgeous, I love the style of it 🙂
one word- succulents. our entire courtyard is succulents, and i'm praying i can even keep THOSE alive! i ADORE the dahlia. its SO PRETTY!!! you better keep her alive!!
I love how all three of your pets match your haircolor. 🙂
Your house is so so pretty! Love the red door and the new baskets. And love that the 3 were helping out. 🙂
I think it's so cute!!!
I know I have said this before, but your house is so cute!
So pretty! I need to add some color to my porch area. I just didn't want to invite bees to hang out that close to my door in case they come in. I don't get along with bees. Your helpers are adorable!

I love the hanging baskets! Your house is really beautiful. 😀
Such a cute house! And I am the same way with plants. They have to be VERY tolerant of little watering:)

Oh my! So so cute. I love your house, your flowers and your helpers! (:
