I am sitting before my laptop sniffling. I am sad, but, my sniffles are from the copious amounts of pollen in the air. I have never had allergies before and this spring I suddenly have been hit hard. Now you are wondering why am I sad? Here is why:
I am ready to admit it doesn't look good. Does it? This Tulip Poplar is dead or dying. If you remember last year we had the tree doctor come out and try to save this beauty, but, alas she didn't make it! The doctor said the tree was stressed from the construction of the Farmhouse. I asked if perhaps Valium or Prozac would help, but, the tree doctor did not find that funny. Who knew trees were so sensitive? If I had known I would have spoken soothingly to the tree. I would have promised the tree that construction wouldn't last that long and things would be back to normal soon. Coulda -woulda-shoulda! Let this be a lesson people - trees have feelings.
We will be setting up a Go Fund Me page to help pay for the removal of the sensitive tree in the near future :) Mucho deneros!!
We are thriving in the growing of wooden benches, however,
I guess they are the byproduct of trees gone by. We found the bench on the right under our screened in porch when we renovated. Perhaps it came from a tree that suffered from low self esteem?
In other growing news, we have 3 new window boxes on the carriage house. I love.
The front porch is all dressed up, too.
Happy Spring!
Thanks for stopping by.
