My love of a certain plant.


I just wanted to do a quick update on how great my cherry tomato plants are doing! They remind me that moving from the Midwest back to Virginia was worth the headache.  I've already ate 3 off the plant, ahaha. Growing up I would walk around eating tomatoes like apples.  Then I discovered cherry ones, and they are my absolute favorites.  Don't get me wrong I love a juicy big boy too.

Are you growing anything? This year all I planted was diff tomatoes, and peppers.  My dream is to have a bigger garden.  I want my whole front/side yard to be an edible garden while the backyard will be for the kiddos.

Tomatoes are extremely easy to grow, they shoot up like weeds.  They just need sunlight, and plenty of water.

Mothers Day Potted Yellow Rose Review

Disclaimer: I received Products for free to facilitate a review.  All opinions are my own.



I am a huge fan of plants.  Especially ones delivered to me? Alive?? That aren't cut!! I absolutely adore.  Don't get me wrong, I love beautiful fresh cut flowers too, but to me.. the love behind getting something with roots.. is by far the best.  These were delivered to me from ProFlowers.

While browsing the flowers, I kept asking my 2 year old "What flowers do you want to pick out for Mommy?" While all the plants were beautiful, the selection of Mothers Day Plants is huge.

The  hard part really is choosing which one I liked the most!  I really wanted an Orchid too but I didn't know how that would turn out with grabby little toddler hands.  I still would love one! *hint hint anyone that reads this that loves me, hahaha*



Ordering was extremely easy.    After falling for the Potted Yellow Roses I then had the choose which container I wanted.  I could have just got the container it came with that was free with the plant.  Tho, soon as I saw the yellow roses, with the Victorian Tin I just had to have that one.
Check out was easy, I chose 3 days from the order date to have it shipped.  It costs more to ship the next day, and on weekends.  I'm fine with a few days.  To me that is fast! Shipping is usually around $15.00, but keep into consideration, you are picking when you want it shipped (shipping prices vary.) Mine were mailed fast and I didn't pay the extra for rush.

 It also comes with a care instruction card.  First was to take the packing moss out, and give the plant some water.  I sat mine on the counter where it would get some direct light.

Seriously, start to browse, and I am sure there are a few you'd want for your home, and to give as gifts.  It was actually my cousin Liz's birthday this month.  Since I didn't get myself the Orchid, I bought Liz the Teacup Orchid with Chocolates.  That's how beautiful I think these gifts really are.  It was delivered to her in Baltimore, Md the day before her birthday (I chose that day!)

When I bought my cousin her birthday gift, I found some coupon codes right on the website to use for RedEnvelope Coupons.  Or try google searches, even searches on RetailMeNot.com.  I signed up for the emails, and I get % off codes that way too.

Disclaimer.  I received the Potted Yellow Roses for free from RedEnvelope to review.  All opinions are my own.  My personal experience with this company is a great one.  When it is something I really do like, I will buy from later on, and share with family, and friends.  To me, that is what life is about.  My roses made me happy, and the orchids I sent my cousin made her happy, and cry because I'm in Ohio, and shes in Maryland.  We miss eachother, but I know she loves plants too.
