Egg Plants



This is the first of many things we will plant as spring approaches. This is an "Egg Plant" I had never seen these before but it is a ceramic egg filled with soil and a marigold plant. You are supposed to crack the top of the egg and then water it like you would any other plant however I would suggest that an adult cracks it because Mason got a little carried away and cracked the whole thing leaving not to much of a pot for our flower to grow in. Stay tuned for pics to see if anything grows. Also you could easily do this with real egg shells hollow them out and place a seed and soil it would be more of a learning process for kids and a great thing to do at Easter I think we will try that next year.
