More ruby saltbush!

I know… so many pictures of my watering cans and so little crafting.

This time, ruby saltbush had its turn again.

These little treasures are going into a narrow mulched area between a wall and a pathway.  The mulch is a saving grace, that and the fact I walk this way when I get home on the bus.  My niece came along to the planting as she was staying with us again, and we had a decent chat as I dug and she watered. The previous plantings in this truly harsh spot are all but one, still alive.  Fingers crossed for the newbies!

Then it was home to prick out more little seedlings.  Seedlings and seeds… couldn’t be any better if they were magic.
