Talking Welcome to Chez Bananas!!!

Yes we have BANANAS!!!

Plants, that is!!



We checked the forecast & sure enough - the temp were supposed to dip into the high 30's.

Sounded the bugle, called the children to arms...we got all of the plants in(trimmed & set) in under an hour.
Che' was my goto girl for setting plants that needed trimmed to the side & 6yo Joseph was there with his scissors(under Mama's guidance ) trimming the brown dead stuff away. Clarissa had them sized for me & helped me 'heft' the big ones in. Baby Ren was wrapped in her Disney Princess blanket by the patio door, pulling Security!

We put a heavy layer of Diatomaceous Earth on the floor to combat any of the warmth loving buggies that came in with the plants.

I was supposed to have a greenhouse, but the truck required an engine rebuild...
Steve(hubby) will be building shelves Thursday(here's hoping).

Have been looking at lighting, will be lightly watering. Wondering if a dehumidifier will be in order...

Any Hints/Helps/Comments appreciated! ~Cheryl & Family
