Every year at this time, we make our way down to Pahl's Market in Apple Valley with Chad's parents. They have a great deal where you get baskets and then go around the green house to pick out so many plants per basket.
The order to pick is:
- Thriller ~ The very middle plant. It is supposed to be spiky or just plain bigger than the rest.
- Filler ~ These are the flowers that have color. The more vibrant for me, the better!
- Spiller ~ This is something vine-like or crawling that spills out over the side.
Yes, we usually buckle at the knees when it comes to our favorite sports team, the Vikings. So, we end up with purple and yellow flowers every year. This year we went a tad different on one basket. I am really excited for Mother's Day. It is usually about the time we get the call to come down and pick up the baskets that have by then become beautiful, big baskets of colors.
