People in Recovery and Plants! (Part 2)

Progress of my yucca gigantea. On Friday, I relocated her from my greenhouse to my front stoop. Now my burros tail has a buddy. Everybody needs a friend.
Gave her her first haircut, too!

And not mine, but one I pass by on my walks sometimes. They really take off once you put them in the ground :eyes:

Strawberries and Romaine Lettuce. No Saturday lazy day for me. Hubby asked why 1 lettuce out of alignment? I said just to “bug” you! In reality was the last planted and I am pooped. :grinning:

Bones.

Temporary housing. Just gotta hope no animals (lizards, birds, and my neighborhood feral cat) eat anything.
With a sharp eye, you will spy a VIP (very important puppy)

Have 3 more vents to install, but pretty much done!

One of the benefits of this new material is that it diffuses light better so I don’t think I’ll need to hang shade cloth anymore - inside looks much nicer without shade cloth.
I have a lux meter to measure light intensity levels but I’m not sure I trust it.
These 3 friends have volunteered themselves to see if they burn or not. Should they live or die, may we never forget their bravery.

Still just living outside :upside_down_face:

Can’t move them back into the greenhouse until I get all the gravel in there, and the other three roof vents get installed. I hope they work like I think they will.

They’re under some good tree cover though so no fear of sunburn. Just fear of being nibbled on by lizards, birds, etc.

Moved some more in, even though I have to move them back out in a few days so I can install the roof vents

The second one looks crazy! I don’t remember seeing it before.

Nice to see La Gordita front and center where she belongs :crown:
