Status update: #BennyTheTreeFrog 🐸 He is back and perfectly fine! No injuries, and back to sunning himself on his porch! So happy his tumble didn’t scare him away permanently 🤗 I just love the little guy so much. Here he is earlier today while I was at work. He was hanging out with my mom and admiring his new pool we made him! And you’ll notice that I tied his pot to the deck railing in addition to putting a heavy rock inside, so there’s no way he will have another fall! 💚 In plant news: my #BlackEyedSusan are all beginning to bloom now! There definitely seems to be some powdery mildew on some of them, though, so I will be hitting it with some fungicide on Wednesday. Also, look at this absolutely tiny spider who made a web in my yellow hibiscus! She’s so small I could barely see her; grateful for zoom technology! 🤣🕷️🥹🐸💖🌻 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #OutdoorGrowing #OutsidePlants #GardenWildlife #BennyTheTreeFrog #babevila #PlantTherapy #PlantsSavedMyMentalHealth

@itsjordan beautiful!!! I have some sunflowers growing, too, but I had to restart new seeds because something went around and ate/decapitated all my little seedlings several weeks ago! Lol. So I started them inside this time and planted them last week when they were big enough. They have another couple of months until they bloom, probably, but they’ll get there! I have 3 kinds this year and so excited!!! The last pic is my tallest guy from last year 😇🌻 Yours is lovely, and I adore bees 🐝 💛
@Artistic_Stoner thank you!! I love all the little critters! Except mosquitoes, spider mites, and ticks. Lol!
@BabeVila i begrudgingly accept their existence because they're still an important part of the ecosystem (ex: male and unmated female mosquitoes are pollinators). chiggers and biting gnats, though? you'd have to write me a ten page essay explaining why they shouldn't be deleted from planet earth en masse.
