Tackle It Tuesday!

I love TT! Because more than ever I have a hard time motivating myself to get things done around here. So if you have the same problem, check out all the Tackle It Tuesdays at 5 Minutes for Mom where housework is blogable!

So on to my tackle. I bought this Japanese maple last year to replace the one the construction workers killed. It's beautiful. I just love it's deep weeping habit. It's perfect for the water garden. It's lived all winter on my patio. And thank the good Lord, it survived thanks to the mild winter we had. So now I need to plant it. The selfish side of me wanted to take it to the new house. But I really need to up the curb appeal on my lake house so it stays. I also have three August Moon hosta and various other plantings to fill out the beds. But my quandry is it is cold and gusty outside right now. So I will do the planting after lunch! I promise...








Ta-da! All done as promised. I even threw in the three hostas!

I adore Japanese maples. I can see why you wish you could take it with you.
