Yes, I'd like one of these. Who would have thought there were structural engineers who specialize in building treehouses?

From Broken to Beautiful

Pelargonium 'Strawberry'

August in Las Vegas: we find ourselves saying things like, "It's so nice out - only 102!" I've been grooming my container plants - deadheading, trimming, and removing debris. Two of my favorite scented geraniums were injured a few weeks ago. A strong wind blew them off the railroad tie they normally sit on.
Pelargonium 'Strawberry' has recuperated beautifully with a zen-like grace. Pelargonium 'Orange' split three ways at the center trunk. I wasn't sure if it would make it, but it has and is now sprouting new growth at the center.
