Deb Harding says:I think this might be one of your best green picks yet. I’m having a hard time visualizing a hippo gardening though….unless it is a water garden.

NY Bella says:How does your garden grows? Very well it seems! But, like Deb, I’m imagining that hippo stomping through the veggies…

puppychick labratbecky says:I see that hippo ball as one of those cartoons where she is all curled up lifting her tutu and walking on her tippy-toes.

puppychick labratbecky says:Thanks for the love! I am falling for all those multicolored seed beads.

Julie Shane says:Cool! I was sifting through some of my greens last weekend and the African green jasper snuggled up next to the olive pearls. So now I have them curled up together waiting for a few more friends and a few hours of bead-time. I have the awesome GG “Hope” pendant, so now you’ve given me a starting point! Thanks!

Asia says:What are you going too do with the seed beads? Love the greens and LOL at the water garden
On Feb 22, 2013 at 7:53 pm #
puppychick labratbecky says:Seed beads are trying to become a lot of dangly things but they have to wait a few weeks first.

Elis Mom says:All hail the Queen of Green!
Good luck with your garden! I can’t get anything to grow in the sand around here…

J Yee smart chick says:Becky, what a gorgeous green Pick for your garden to be this year, LOVE the subtle olives with the lighter greens, the olive pearl sticks sure go beautifully with the jasper and other seed beads you have in this one, may your garden grow well!!
I am hoping to grow more strawberries this spring… after I throw out some plant corpses that died last fall, or last month, due to some below freezing temps we had!!

Crazy Chick Frida says:Gorgeous and a fave!! I totally see the hippo doing gardening, but in my world she also uttering some less beautiful words when trying to tippy toeing thru here garden…

puppychick labratbecky says:LOL, Frida!!!

Laud says:I’m so with you on this one–can’t wait till the snow disappears–but I guess I’ll need to put in a pond for hippo.

J Yee smart chick says:Becky, I haven’t done raised bed gardening, but a lot of my neighbors seem to have done it, there’s lots in the few blocks near where I am – how did your raspberries and tomatoes do last year?
I have mostly done container gardening so far,since I am only starting out, and probably will be moving, especially depending on what happens with my job search. Congrats to you on this beautiful Pick being a fave of the week, these greens together are soooo soothing, I am longing for spring myself!!
