Fairy Garden in Winter

I have had a small collection of fairy garden items for my small dolls.

During the spring and summer of 2022 

I decided to create a fairy garden

with actual plants!

 

I have not been particularly skilled with plants.

I looked closely at the sunlight and water needed for each plant

before creating a fairy garden in a pot.

It actually lasted outside from spring through the early fall!

When it got colder in the fall, it was time to bring the fairy garden inside.

I tossed the vines turning yellow.

I placed the pot near the window where the cat sits.

Not a good idea!

I put the remaining plants from the back into a smaller pot

and tossed the fern looking things.

The remaining plant was drying up from inconsistent watering,

so I bought a bigger pot for more soil and more room for roots.

I removed the leaves and sections that had dried up

and hope that it will continue to grow with more water!

Amaya declared that this is her garden.

Amaya looked back at the original notes from last spring

and found out that her plant is a China Doll!

Hmmm.....

She brought in the wheelbarrow to remind herself

and her person to water the plants!

She peeked through the stems to make sure everything would be okay.

The plant has been repotted with more soil and added water.

Then it turned itself about for more sun on the areas that are less grown...

And Amaya now wants a frog or a rabbit to live in her Elf Garden.
