We took the last one out today and put the brugmansia garden to bed. Say nite Gracey! We had some excitement today also, thank goodness Master Josh can now drive! Doctor Mom was right to sent the males to the hospital!
LG, Wife, aka Doctor Mom sent Master Josh, DS to drive his Dad to the hospital to get stitches. I was moving the big potted brugmansias with the appliance dolly and DH thought that the was was to big for me to move. Well he told me to get out of the way and he stepped in between the dolly and the plant. Well I screamed to move and the brug smack him backwards into the dolly on the way down. Next DH hit the ground and hand to the head where there was lots of blood! DS runs for the a towel I stop DH due to the white carpet and get towel to head. Got it stopped bleeding and Doctor Mom applies ointment and bandaid. Then send Master Josh to drive Dad to hospital while I continue to garden. You see I was coated in mud and figured while they were gone I could get all this finished!! So I finished moving the 8 larger ones from the back and the 9 other plants from the front. Then I covered the brugmansia garden and the last veggie bed with plastic.
I think I should sleep real good this evening!

K, do you leave the brug garden covered all winter?
Thanks OED!! Ya know I really needed a good laugh this morning!! Took Master Josh to work this morning and he was gimmin' so now we will see if DH is too? I have a full day planned today!! I want to get the brugs in the brug house before I get more offers of help. Yes we keep them covered all winter and it's our way of controlling the weeds and cooking the soil. Matter of face we are thinking of cutting the plastic to fit each bed and then planting on top next spring due to the acidy soil which isn't good for the brugs.
Hey LG, I see you laughing! I think OED has my number!
My goodness, Karma! What a tale! And I think Brugs are way too high maintainene for me! Sounds ....and looks....like a ton of work to care for those babies and keep them thriving. Glad DH is okay and you got it all done.
Well it's not official all the brugs but 2 are tucked way. The last two are going to have to keep Master Josh's classic car company in the garage as they are way to big for the brug house. I can say I put them all away since the 'Dolly' accident of which DH is still getting a razzing at work. Did you know the local PD ask lots of questions! Stitches are gone, now we are hoping the shinner will go fast.
Joan, it's a labor of love for the living night goddess!
Well I screamed to move and the brug smack him backwards into the dolly on the way down. Next DH hit the ground and hand to the head where there was lots of blood! DS runs for the a towel I stop DH due to the white carpet and get towel to head. Got it stopped bleeding and Doctor Mom applies ointment and bandaid.
Well glad he's gotten the proper medical attention....
No word on HOW THE BRUG PLANT IS!!!!
Karma.. your gardens are well.... pretty dang HUGE! I can't wait to see them when they're not in hibernation!
The Result Of Your Work Is Only As Good As Your Concentra........HEY LOOK!! A Cloud Shaped Like Snoopy!!!
Ginger, he works for the local PD, so you know they would arrest me in a heart beat! He sure got a razzin' a plant did this to him? Funny think is I've been moving them for over 10 years now and no trip to the hospital.
