{Transplanting}

Last week this adorable boy brought home some lovely but over grown plants from school. He knew that Grandpa would have a solution for transplanting them! This was our after school project today::

Needed:: Potting soil, plastic pots, and water. Plus overgrown sunflower plant and overcrowded tomato plant, plus some plant that Tayson only remembers the name of in French, so we are at a loss with that one!

Now hopefully they will all flourish in front of the sunlight, to then be transplanted again at a later date when they weather is better outside. Wish me luck as my track record with caring for plants is dismal!
