Perfect Blooms

Geraniums at the office
The Mister's Grandmother was a wonderful gardener, and since we have our office in what was once her house, we try to keep up some of her traditions, like the rose bushes lining the yard. One area that doesn't seem to need very much trying is the planter boxes in front of the office; this appears to be the perfect confluence of sun, moisture, and temperature, because these geraniums turn out perfect every year. I commented that Grandma must be smiling down from heaven on her flower planters. "Yeah," replied the Mister. "But let's not tell her that we start with new ones every year; she would think it was wasteful not to leave the old ones in."
