Bad, bad gardeners parents


We decided it was time to get our garden sorted out with the good weather finally looking like it was going to stick around for more than a hopeful minute and a half at 6am.

So we got our lawn mowed, brought out our garden furniture (the teak badly needed cleaning and oiling) and we bought two plants and potted them.


Meet, Rhododendrum



... and Azalea


This is what they are supposed to look like once they bloom.


Pretty right? Turns out... both Rhododendrum and Azalea are toxic!


So far, Emma has shown absolutely no interest in these plants but still... I can't say I feel great having these on both sides of our summer couch.
